In 1985, the Louisiana State Government may or may not have funded a group of intrepid historians intent on bringing new insight into the trials and triumphs of a people long marginalized by the fact that they live on the margins of the U.S. landmass, culture, S.A.T. scores, and nutritional guidelines.

These brilliant scholars would have assembled a crack team of historical thespians and allegedly employed advanced, historically accurate recording techniques to produce these would-be highly prized tapes documenting the entire history of Acajuniana.

Maurice Martin grew up in Lafayette, Louisiana. He is a Prairie Cajun, not a Bayou Cajun. Anybody who says he's a Bayou Cajun better be ready to FIGHT. Yes, I'm talking to you!

Moocat le Meaux grew up in southern Louisiana and is a proud Bayou Cajun. If he ever meets that "Mo Martin" Prairie Cajun again in the swamps, he will punch him in the eye, I can tell you that!
