disposable diapers...

One morning, Thibodeaux went to Boudreaux's house to pick him up for work and found him with cloth diapers drying on lines strung from post to post, and his son was playing with blocks on the porch. "Man, What happened to Marie? Why she's not taking care of T-Boy?", Thib asked.

"Mais, she's sick bad with the flu and she can't be around nobody, so I took off work to take care of her and the baby...this child must mess his diaper every 10 minutes! I don't know how she keeps up!" Boudreaux said as he pinned another diaper to the line.

Thibodeaux recognized the stress his friend was going through and offered some good advice. "Boudreaux, don't mess with these old cotton diapers while Marie is sick. I'm going to the drug store and buy you them disposable diapers...when the baby makes a mess, you take that off, throw it away, and put on a new one...you don't have to wash nothing!" Thibodeaux came back with a box of disposable diapers and showed Boudreaux how to use them, then wished his friend luck and was off to work. After his day was done, he made a pass back to check on Boudreaux's situation. He found Boudreaux sitting on his porch smoking a cigarette and reading the paper...looking very relaxed compared to the scene that morning.

"Thibodeaux! Man, I can't tell you how much you helped me with them disposable diapers, that...it's the best thing since the clothesline dog chain.." As Thibodeaux listened to Boudreaux sing the praises of disposable diapers, a screaming mad T-Boy walked bow-legged onto the porch with his swollen diaper very close to dragging the ground.

"Boudreaux! You need to change that baby's diaper, yeah! There must be 10 pounds of mess in there for sure!" said Thibodeaux in disbelief.

Boudreaux lit another cigarette and said, "Don't worry, Tib...you bought the good ones...the box says they can take from 20 to 24 pounds!"
