Two
informally dressed ladies happened to start up a conversation during an endless
wait in the LAX airport.
The first lady was an
arrogant California woman married to a wealthy man. The second was a
well-mannered elderly woman from northwest Texas .
When the
conversation centered on whether they had any children, the California woman
started by saying, "When my first child was born, my husband built a beautiful
mansion for me."
The lady
from Texas commented,
"Well,
bless your heart."
The first
woman continued, "When my second child was born, my husband bought me a
beautiful Mercedes-Benz....
Again, the
lady from Texas commented,
"Well,
bless your heart."
The first
woman continued boasting, "Then, when my third child was born, my husband
bought me this exquisite diamond bracelet.
Yet again,
the lady from Texas commented,
"Well,
bless your heart."
The first
woman then asked her companion, "What did your husband buy for you when you
had your first child?"
"My husband
sent me to charm school," declared lady from Texas
."
Charm
school?" the first woman cried,
"Oh, my
God! What on earth for?
The lady
from Texas responded,
"Well for
example, instead of saying, "Who gives a s**t?", I learned to say, "Well, bless
your heart!"
