Judging Books By Their Cover

I had my ESL class read about Audie Murphy tonight.
After finishing our reading of all his death-defying exploits, all the students really wanted to know was "Why do girls always think big, strong guys are the ones to pick?" (It was an all-guy class this evening.)
Audie was 5'4" and 112 pounds, and we were all in agreement that looks are an inaccurate indicator of the more important aspects of a man.

Of course, after the war, Audie had poontang coming out his ears.



Audie Murphy: Got a lot of tail.

At 5'6", I endorse this post.

Of course, after the war, Audie had poontang coming out his ears.

I almost spit up a lung at that ...

An hour and a half of reading out loud about Audie's incredible heroism, followed by a half-hour student-led discussion of why chicks foolishly prefer big guys. I was cracking up.

I was just trying to remember his name for a post on Paul Ray Smith.

He defied the "everything's bigger in Texas" theory.

Hell of a guy.

Being a war hero and a film star might have had something to do with his ability to pull the ladies.

By the way, at 6'4" and 190 pounds (in your 'Mericun talk) I'm happy to say I dislike small people.

You wouldn't like me, then.

Actually, Donnah, I meant small men. As is "small man's syndrome".

You wouldn't like my father or my brother, then. They're both 5'3".
