Cajun French Homecoming T-shirts

At the local high school where I taught, homecoming week is passed in good cheer with theme days: pajama day, crazy day, camouflage day, nerd day, 80's day, etc. For our school, they even had Cajun day where, I saw students dressing up as the stereotype of a Cajun character they had seen portrayed on television: no teeth, barefoot, straw hat, big smile, cut offs, with a pirouge paddle, nutria rat pelt. I even found myself getting into the spirit on that day, wearing my husband's Dickies pants and boots and carrying a large wooden roux spoon. So I took the day to talk to my students about these swamp stereotypes and in response, we came up with "Cajun French" t-shirt slogans to make white t-shirts to wear our Cajun French on Cajun Day like a read Cajun would. The principal, a fellow Ville Plattian and bon vivant, agreed, so I let my students choose what they wanted to put on their shirts. Here is the list of the most crazy/nonsensical/pop-culture/Cajun French/rap/cowboy amalgam of words I have ever seen. Was I ever proud!!

Jim Soileau: Rapper?

Mister Jim Soileau LIVE (center) layin down the beats from the old Cajun Smokehouse.

   

                         In this rare clip from the Tasse de Cafe' Radio Program, Mr. Jim Soileau breaks into spontaneous rap about the title of an old conte told to him by his mamere. Although difficult to decipher this archaic Evangeline Parish flow, I think it goes: 
"Ca c'est la danse qu'est longue, et ça c'est l'essence qui brûle.
 (That's that dance that's long and that's the gas (oil?) that burns.) Allons donc, Mister Jim!
