The face is handsome, the eyebrows dance when he talks.It is when he talks that you know you've never met anyone quite like him. He's an original, a one of a kind, and thousands upon thousands of people have laughed as they never laughed before when he tells his stories--tales about the most unique people who inhabit our earth, the great Cajuns of South Louisiana. . . .He is also an artist when it comes to cooking.
