Fabrications Inc.

Megan is a master fabricator just like her grandmother and my daddy and aunt. She sure comes up with some whoppers! We are all so good at telling a story or fact with straight faces and making everyone believe. If I hadn't believed some of the family history stories my daddy and aunt told, I wouldn't have wasted years of research.

About 2 years ago, I had to go to a meeting in Austin for work with my boss. We had one session….I don’t remember what the subject was but I was chosen with two other ladies to get up in front of the rest of the group…..about 100-125 others to tell something about ourselves….a short bio…..what the group didn’t know was it had to be a totally stange occupation that we had in our earlier years and it was to be voted on as to whether it was true or made up. Of course there was a question and answer period from the audience. After the voting, we had to tell whether the story was true or made up. I took off on it and told about how I had been a stripper in my younger days. I’m here to tell you that I got one shocked audience. I really had them going and it was funny. All but 4 people believed me was the result of the voting. At the end, I did have to tell them that my story was true……I had been a furniture stripper for my brother in the late 70’s.
