Show Description

The mad pot we are living in Shep's grandmother visits the local chili parlor to find out how they make their famous Chili. She and his mother throw all the fixin's in the pot and it comes out 'just chili'. No matter how many time they tried it always came out the same - 'just chili'. Moral of he story: We could never again, write another Declaration of Independence, Because we know it's a great document now, we could never do it, we'd start sweating immediately. Do you think we could write a Constitution?
