"Recently I was honored to be selected as an Outstanding Famous Celebrity in Texas, to be a judge at a chili cook-off because no one else wanted to do it. Also the original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table asking directions to the beer wagon when the call came. I was assured by the other two judges that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy, and besides they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted this as being one of those burdens you endure when you're an internet writer and therefore know and adored by all."
Here are the scorecards from the event:

Chili # 1: Mike's Maniac Mobster Monster Chili
JUDGE ONE:
A little too heavy on
tomato. Amusing kick.
JUDGE TWO:
Nice, smooth tomato
flavor. Very mild.
CAMERON:
Holy smokes, what is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your
driveway with it. Took me two beers to put the flames out. Hope that's the worst one. These people are crazy.

Chili # 2: Arthur's Afterburner Chili
JUDGE ONE:
Smoky (barbecue?) with a hint of pork. Slight Jalapeno tang.
JUDGE TWO:
Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken seriously.
CAMERON
Keep this out of reach of children! I'm not sure what I am supposed to taste
besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich
maneuver. Shoved my way to the front of the beer line. The barmaid looks like a
professional wrestler after a bad night. She was so irritated over my gagging
sounds that the snake tattoo under her eye started to twitch. She has arms like
Popeye and a face like Winston Churchill. I will NOT pick a fight with
her.

Chili # 3: Fred's Famous Burn Down the Barn Chili
JUDGE ONE:
Excellent firehouse chili! Great kick. Needs more beans.
JUDGE TWO:
A beanless chili, a bit salty, good use of red peppers.
CAMERON:
This has got to be a joke. Call the EPA, I've located a !?##?!?%?~?! uranium
spill. My nose feels like I have been sneezing Drano. Everyone knows the routine
by now and got out of my way so I could make it to the beer wagon. Barmaid
pounded me on the back; now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. She
said her friends call her "Sally." Probably behind her back they call
her "Forklift."

Chili # 4: Bubba's Black Magic
JUDGE ONE:
Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.
JUDGE TWO:
Hint of lime in the black beans Good side dish for fish or other mild foods,
not much of a chili.
CAMERON:
I felt something scraping across my tongue but was unable to taste it. Sally
was standing behind me with fresh refills so I wouldn't have to dash over to see
her. When she winked at me her snake sort of coiled and uncoiled... it's kinda
cute.

Chili # 5: Linda's Legal Lip
Remover

JUDGE ONE:
Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground adding considerable
kick. Very impressive.
JUDGE TWO:
Chili using shredded beef; could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne
peppers make a strong statement.
CAMERON:
My ears are ringing and I can no longer focus my eyes. I belched and four
people in front of me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed hurt when I told
her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue by pouring
beer directly on it from a pitcher. Sort of irritates me that one of the other
judges asked me to stop screaming.
![]()
Chili # 6: Vera's Very Vegetarian Variety
JUDGE ONE:
Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spice and peppers.
JUDGE TWO:
The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, and garlic. Superb.
CAMERON:
My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous flames. No one
seems inclined to stand behind me except Sally. I asked if she wants to go
dancing later.
![]()
Chili # 7: Susan's Screaming
Sensation Chili

JUDGE ONE;
A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.
JUDGE TWO:
Ho Hum, tastes as if the
chef threw in canned peppers at the last moment. I should note that I am worried
about Judge number 3, he appears to be in a bit of distress.
CAMERON:
You could put a hand grenade in my mouth and pull the pin and I wouldn't
feel it. I've lost the sight in one eye and the world sounds like it is made of
rushing water. My clothes are covered with chili which slid unnoticed out of my
mouth at some point. Good! At autopsy they'll know what killed me. Go Sally,
save yourself before it's too late. Tell our children I'm sorry I was not there
to conceive them. I've decided to stop breathing, it's too painful and I'm not
getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air I'll just let it in through the hole in
my stomach. Call the X-Files people and tell them I've found a super nova on my
tongue.

Chili # 8: Helen's Mount Saint Chili
JUDGE ONE:
This final entry is a good, balanced chili, neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see
that most of it was lost when Judge Number 3 fell and pulled the chili pot on
top of
himself.
JUDGE TWO:
A perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili, safe for all, not too bold but
spicy enough to declare its existence.
CAMERON:
Momma !!
