This is a email I got from Gene Ballantine. Since Gene passes lots of emails on to others, some of you have read it before! It came to me with cute computer graphics, but they don't cut and paste well.......so this is just the list.........

 

It is the "10 Commandments - Cajun style"....some of the ones I have seen say "hillbilly". Doesn't matter.......I thought with all the news about the Alabame Chief Justice and the standoff with whether the 10 Commandments should be on display in Alabama courthouse or not..........it is in the news.......

 

Last night on some news show, the interviewer was asking high school kids if they could name the 10 commandments. Some knew a few. Some young people knew none of them. A couple of kids didn't even know what the person asking the questions was talking about....

 

"Ten Commandments - Cajun style"

 

1. God is number one.......and das' All!

2. Don't pray to nuttin' or nobody.....jus' God!

3. Don't cuss nobody....'specially da Good Lord!

4. When it be Sunday.....pass yo'self by God's House.

5. Yo mama an' yo daddy dun did it all....lissen to dem.

6. Killin' duck an' fish...das OK........people - NO!
