A viewer asks: “When I was a kid, I shared the bus stop with an older boy who bullied me. One morning he said quite aggressively, “I’m going to give you a FAT LIP!” And clenched his fist and sneered at me. That afternoon, I was playing baseball with my friends. I was pitching. I pitched the ball and my buddy lit a line drive that was so fast that there was no time to get a mitt up or duck or “anything.” It hit me square in the mouth. I ended up with the FATTEST LIPS you ever saw!! The next morning, I went to the bus stop, and everybody was SHOCKED at my appearance. Remembering what the bully had said the day before, another boy asked, “Dave, did you give him the fat lip?!” No one was more shocked than the bully. But what was even more interesting, is that he replied in what sounded like a “trance-like” state at the time, a kind of elongated, whispered, but very audible “yeahhh.” Any connection between the bully’s threat, and the fat lip later that same day? Was his “yeahhh” a kind of subconscious confession, that he did indeed give me the fat lip!?”329 views0 answers0 votes

During the Korean War, American troops in the Chosin Reservoir were outnumbered 8 to 1, supplies were running low, temperatures plummeted to minus 25 degrees, and food was almost impossible to warm up. They were also running low on mortar shells. In ordering mortar shell resupplies, they used a codename established for the munitions: Tootsie Rolls. Somebody took that literally, however, and airdropped the beleaguered troops crates of the candy, instead. The story is, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, enabling the American forces to be recharged and break out of the Chosin Reservoir, and fight their way to safety, and the men who survived the battle started calling themselves the “Chosin Few.” Is this story true, and if so, was the lucky misunderstanding a divine intervention?364 views0 answers0 votes
