The Fat Lady Story



Story of a guy who met a very healthy woman in flight.


Squeezing herself into the seat she smiled and said, “Hi, how are you? Not in the mood to talk to any stranger he ignored.

The Woman repeated her greeting in a friendly voice, leaning toward the guy forcing him to look at her. Guy replied with, “Hi.” with the intention of avoiding further talk.


Guy turned away and stared out of the cabin. Again the woman nudged and said, “My name is Laura. I am from Britain. Where are you from?”

“Malaysia” ,Guy replied rudely.


She continued to chat, “Please accept my heartfelt apology. I am sorry. This is gonna be a long flight so we should be friends, Don’t you think?” Ignoring the unfriendly behavior of the guy.


She started to talk about her trip and how excited she was about the trip. Her such liveliness made the guy lower his guards. With passing time he realized that she was charming and made everyone smile around her. During conversation, She managed to make every crew member laugh. She cracked jokes about her size. One of the flight attendant came to her and said’ “Thank you, You made my day!”


In between all the fun and talk guy asked the woman, “Have you ever thought about losing some weight? Aren’t you worried about disease that come with being overweight?”

She chuckled and replied, “Not at all, I am happy the way I am. Why should I waste my time on slimming when I have more important things to do? I am this size because I was born big. Folks often call me a big lady, they think I am lazy and have no will power. They are wrong.”


“I am actually a slim person. I am so full of nature that people won’t be able to keep up with me. I know this extra flesh is here to keep me from chasing after men everywhere.” she continued smiling.


Guy asked, “Do men chase after you?”

“Yes, I am happily married and still get proposals all the time. Most of them have relationship problems and for some reason they like to talk to me. Sometimes I think I should be a counselor instead of a teacher,” She replied.


Woman’s thoughtful conversations had turned flight into a thoroughly enjoyable journey. After reaching the airport and bidding goodbye, Guy realized that she was the most beautiful woman he had ever met in his life.


Moral: We should be confident about ourselves. Heart beauty matters much more than Physical beauty.

McDow Hole – Anatomy Of A Texas Ghost Story

  Spooky Texas legend of the McDow Hole, where ghost sightings of pioneer woman Jenny Papworth and her baby have long been reported.  Written by Bob Hopkins . I first heard the legendary tale of the Ghost of the McDow Hole in the fifteenth year of my youth. It was near Halloween in October 1975 when a friend related the tale of the ghost that haunts a creek bed in rural Erath County and naturally I believed every word of it in the twilight of an evening spent with friends telling ghost stories. I would again hear the tale over the years while living in North Central Texas. It wasn’t until my chance encounter of meeting an author of the legend in 2002 that my curiosity began to peak and like any good investigator I felt it my duty to dig deeper into the hundred year old tale of pioneer folklore to see how much of the story was true and how much was fabricated. I would discover many similarities in fact and fiction that I believed would leave any reader with the same curiosity t...

Tsali: North Carolina Cherokee Ghost Story

  The year was 1838. As the first rays of early morning light crept through the dark and misty mountain valley, Tsali gazed out of his tiny cave with a heavy heart. As a young boy, he spent days running though the thick woods and scampering up the steep, rocky hillsides that surrounded his Cherokee village in western North Carolina. The mountains were his place of escape — a place where he could dream, and be alone with his thoughts. But now, as an ailing, 60-year-old man, Tsali was hiding in these hills for a very different reason. The white man had taken away the land that his ancestors had lived on for centuries. And they would not stop until even these majestic, sacred hills were theirs. Tsali looked out and saw his fellow villagers, who were also hiding in the tiny crevices that dotted the wooded hillside. Many were shivering in the early morning chill. In their haste to leave, they had had no time to pack their belongings. Some managed to smile back at Tsali, their teeth chat...

Lorenzo Dow’s Georgia Curse

  There comes a time in life when we all need a little guidance – a little helpful push to remind us what’s right and wrong. And for some folks, that guidance comes from some good old fashioned, fire and brimstone preaching. Now these days, you can’t turn on the TV without seeing one religious channel after another. But back in the old days when there wasn’t any TV – or cars for that matter – the traveling preacher was the only man of God some country folk got to see. Lorenzo Dow was one of the best-known traveling preachers back in the 1800s. He was a funny looking man from Connecticut – tall and skinny with wild eyes, long stringy hair, a thick beard, and a slight hunchback. But he also had a booming voice that made sinners across the country shake in their boots. “Repent now, my brothers and sisters! Repent!” he would scream in every town he visited, and many people did just that. Lorenzo loved the outdoors, and would rather sleep on cold, hard ground in the woods than the most ...
