Hello all,
I couldn't let some of my favorite people go off to enjoy themselves at the
Fiery Food Show (which I can't go to but would love to attend someday) without
a Poem to speed their journey. So without further adieu...
----------------------------------------------------
Hi Ho, Hi Ho, It's Off to Habs We Go!
It's time to make a pilgrimage...
That long-awaited trip.
In search of the elusive sauce
That's smooth enough to sip
They seek a mighty meeting place,
Where hotness reigns supreme.
The land of peppers, of danger too!
And even hot ice cream.
Row upon row of spicy stuff,
It's more than some can handle.
Some of that stuff is so damn hot,
It's been used to light a candle.
How does one choose this sauce or that?
It's tough to make such choices.
Can it it be used to deter a cat?
And will it steal our voices?
Our Mary's going to have a booth!
As will "The Bread Man", Jim
I hear Rael's tied up with work,
No Naked Twister for him.
=Mark the great, plans to show up,
His website to enhance.
I hope he finds that which he seeks,
And doesn't lose his pants.
You'll never meet a nicer bunch,
Of Chileheads and Dreamers.
They'd rather drive Tabasco Jeeps,
Than ordinary Beamers.
So they're off to hot and distant lands,
Of this you can be sure.
I hope they've found the ONE TRUE SAUCE,
To be our every cure.
Other folks will join them,
Whose names I do not know.
To mention them all one at a time,
Would make this mail too slow.
So do not fret, my chilehead friends,
If your name I did not include.
It's not that you just don't matter,
It's just me trying not to be rude.
The Blessing of THE GREATEST HAB
Be with our hapless band.
The Hottest-of-the-Hot await
As well as Hunan Hand
Sorry folks, but I couldn't resist!
