I also am overweight, and I am not proud of it. In the mean time, if I don't do something about this, I EXPECT to be kidded by others for my bulbous
contour!!!

I am ashamed for laughing at that remark. But I must say for those with "bulbous" body shapes it is just as bad when your too thin. I suffered a
serious injury to my stomach when I hit a very large "elk" and had to have stomach surgery...as a result I was unable to eat (normal) for several
years...leaving me to look like a cadaver as my sister told everyone in my family...so if you do not think people say horrible things about you when
your toooooo thin think again...they point and stare and think you are bulimic or anorexic and let me say it is just as bad....
I guess I am just jealous because there are times when I cannot eat at all (liquids only) and I want to scream at people that seem to REALLY enjoy
consuming large volumes of food....or just eating at all...
I guess the answer is to try and take as good a care as we can for our health....which is very hard to do in todays life as everything is based on
food...I did not leave the house or could barely watch tv for the first year because of all the "food"
offered...restuarants...billboards...commercials..grocery stores...fast food...minimarts blah blah blah....it was horrible. It is almost harder to be
too thin I think sometimes...at least from my situation....
I am glad that the kind gentleman was there to offer help for the lady in distress...god bless her for getting out there and trying to have a good
time...as long as she is comfortable with who she is...god bless  her...

You're NOT alone in that opinion, Diane!! A lot of the male population lack the sensitive gene; but make up for it with an
overabundance of insensitive genes!!

It's like Jews can tell Jewish jokes to other Jews and
blacks can tell black jokes to other blacks.......
I also have had bulbous tendencies.
If I saw me looking like that on the beach, I would laugh at me too !! 
If you don't love ALL of me, the heck with ya'all !!

OK Ladies........
We men are so insensitive.

Had a guy working for me who was rather " say Pudgy ". Had a sticker on his truck that said ' Not fat, just short for my weight "
Probably should have been 7' 11''

Yep, there is a definite line between fun and nasty.
Unfortunately, that line is in different places for each person.
Now I am in jeapardy of losing favor with my favorite Asuncion storyteller, freight handler and neighbor......what to do, what to do ??
Dinner at our place ??

His sense of humor was 15 feet tall.
Why do people try to ignore the person they have made? If it meant enough to that person to develop to a particular size, why can't they accept the
outcome? That was the result of one's lack of self-respect.
OK.....New today, new self-respect. Undo the self-inflicted mayhem and repair yourself. Get skinny.

Yes, that will help---just get your place built. 
It is OK to agree to disagree. Also, I guess this means you won't mind the arrowhead stand we are building by your property.
Diane
Last thought to all. I can, and do make remarks about myself being the fat little old grey haired lady, but my first thought here was that while
that lady was having a good time, did she know she was going to published on the internet to be the target of cheap shots?
And gentlemen, it is different with women and some of you will never understand it, but that is OK.---it would take too much time to explain, and
might fall on deaf ears.
Even if I was skinny, I would have still hurt and found the humor tasteless. And if you think I reacted to this, you should have heard John----OK,
off the soap box now, and back to packing for Baja.

DENNIS, you are one of the rudest most insensitive guys on this site! Why do you assume that I took any of the Greenpeace/whale/fat cracks
personally? Might it be because you saw yourself in my response? Did I mention your name?? Remember, I told you if I was talking specifically to
YOU, I have the guts to mention you by name. It has absolutely no bearing on my original comments on this thread, but I'm tall & thin. My
comments were for others people who are hurt and/or offended by all the rude & insensitive comments made by a lot of guys. And for the record,
I'm equal opportunity...if females made those comments, I'd have called them on it too!
What happened to that public apology that you posted for making rude & offensive posts that put you in a timeout?? So much for mending your ways!
It was certainly short-lived!
Dang!! I knew that Hose A has a right to monitor my posts, I didn't know I had to get your approval on what threads I can post PRIOR
to posting on any thread I chose to!
Thanks for your post, Wiley...but I doubt he gives a rip...

Hope!
The lurkers out there don't take this thread as being representative of most Nomads. Funny is in the eyes of the beholder.......but it sure
loses......something......when it is dissected.
