Tophile & Clarence
Tophile live across de bayou from Clarence who he don like at all. Dey all da time yell across de bayou at each utter.
Tophile would yell at Clarence, "If I had a way to cross dis bayou, I'd come over dere an beat you up good, yeah!
Dis went on for years. Finally de state don built a bridge across dat bayou right by dere houses and Tophile's wife Clotile says, "Now is yo chance, Tophile...Why don't you go over dere an beat up Clarence like you say?"
Tophile say "OK" and start across de new bridge but he see a sign on de bridge an he stop to read it and den he go back home.
Clotile say, "Mais why you back so soon?"
Tophile say "Mais Clotile, I don change my mind about beat up Clarence. You know dey got a sign on dat bridge what say 'Clarence' 13 ft 6 in. You know, he don look near dat big when I yell at him from across de bayou!
