Boudreaux, the smoothest-talking Cajun Marine was talking to new recruits in the Marine corps induction center. Because he was a good talker, they assigned him the duty of advising new recruits about government benefits, especially the GI insurance to which they were entitled. The officer in charge soon noticed that Boudreaux was getting a 99% sign-up rate for the more expensive supplemental form of GI insurance. This was remarkable, because it cost these low-income recruits $30.00 per month for the higher coverage, compared to what the government was already providing at no charge. The officer decided he'd sit in the back of the room at the next briefing and observe Boudreaux's sales pitch. Boudreaux stood up before the latest group of inductees and said, "If you has da normal GI insurans an' you goes to Afghanistan an' gets youself killed, da govment' pays you benefishery $20,000. If you takes out da suppmental insurans, which cost you only t'irty dollars a munt, den da governmen' gots ta pay you benefishery $400,000! Now," Boudreaux concluded, "which bunch you tink da governmen’ gonna send ta Afghanistan first?"This message has been edited.

Just want to say that I've known a few Cajuns. Not a single one of 'em was stupid. On the contrary, they were sharp as hell, every one of 'em. Think somebody is stupid because he speaks slowly and with an accent at your own peril. Thanks, Sap | |||
