Chili Cook Off in Texas
			
			If you can read this whole story without laughing, then there's no hope
			for you. I was crying by the end. This is an actual account as
			relayed to paramedics at a chili cook-off in Texas . Note: Please take time
			to read this slowly. If you pay attention to the first two judges, the
			reaction of the third judge is even better. For those of you who
			have lived in Texas , you know how true this is. They actually have a
			Chili Cook-off about the time Halloween comes around. It takes up a major
			portion of a parking lot at the San Antonio City Park .
			
			Judge #3 was an inexperienced Chili taster named Frank, who was
			visiting from Springfield , IL . Frank: "Recently, I was honored to
			be selected as a judge at a chili cook-off. The original person called
			in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the
			judge's table, asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the
			call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (Native Texans)
			that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy; and, besides, they told me I could
			have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted and became Judge 3."
			
			Here are the scorecard notes from the event:
			
			CHILI # 1 - MIKE'S MANIAC MONSTER CHILI
			
			Judge # 1 -- A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.
			
			Judge # 2 -- Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.
			
			Judge # 3 (Frank) -- Holy crap, what the hell is this stuff? You could
			remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the
			flames out. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy.
			
			CHILI # 2 - AUSTIN 'S AFTERBURNER CHILI
			
			Judge # 1 -- Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.
			
			Judge # 2 -- Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken
			seriously.
			
			Judge # 3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure
			what I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people
			who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more
			beer when they saw the look on my face.
			
			CHILI # 3 - FRED'S FAMOUS BURN DOWN THE BARN CHILI
			Judge # 1 -- Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick.
			
			Judge # 2 -- A bit salty, good use of peppers.
			
			Judge # 3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels
			like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now.
			
			Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now
			my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting ****-faced
			from all of the beer.
			
			CHILI # 4 - BUBBA'S BLACK MAGIC
			
			Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.
			
			Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish
			or other mild foods, not much of a chili.
			
			Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was
			unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the beer
			maid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. This 300 lb. woman is
			starting to look HOT ... just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is
			chili an aphrodisiac?
			
			CHILI # 5 - LISA'S LEGAL LIP REMOVER
			
			Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground,
			adding considerable kick. Very impressive.
			
			Judge # 2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must
			admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.
			
			Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and
			I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted, and four people behind me
			needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her
			that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from
			bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm
			burning my lips off. It really ticks me off that the other judges asked me
			to stop screaming. Screw them.
			
			CHILI # 6 - VERA'S VERY VEGETARIAN VARIETY
			
			Judge # 1 -- Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance
			of spices and peppers.
			
			Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions,
			garlic. Superb.
			
			Judge # 3 -- My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with
			gaseous, sulfuric flames. I crapped on myself when I farted, and I'm worried
			it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind
			me except that Sally. Can't feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my
			butt with a snow cone.
			
			CHILI # 7 - SUSAN'S SCREAMING SENSATION CHILI
			
			Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned
			peppers.
			
			Judge # 2 -- Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can
			of chili peppers at the last moment.
			**I should take note that I am worried about Judge # 3. He appears
			to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.
			
			Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and
			I wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world
			sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili,
			which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match
			my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they'll know what killed me.
			I've decided to stop breathing it's too painful. Screw it; I'm not
			getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through the
			4-inch hole in my stomach.
			
			CHILI # 8 - BIG TOM'S TOENAIL CURLING CHILI
			
			Judge # 1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not
			too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence.
			
			Judge # 2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced chili. Neither
			mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge #3
			farted, passed out, fell over and pulled the chili pot down on top of
			himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. Poor feller, wonder how he'd
			have reacted to really hot chili?
			
			Judge # 3 - No Report
