Yes, the last time I was in Texas was for a goalball tournament. I got
this powder stuff that, if you got anywhere near it, you started
tearing. And, I like hot stuff. But this stuff was riddiculous. I have
never tasted, let alone smelled something so hot.
Thanks

>> 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

>> in the front part of my chest. I'm getting sh*t-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

>> 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 impress
>> ive.
>> 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

>> 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 wo
>> rried about
>> judge number 3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing

>> Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I

>> 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
