Bingo Lover sees image of Jesus in her curtains

PORT NECHES - Pat Thompson hung up the phone and saw Jesus in her curtains.

"I kind of freaked out," the Port Neches woman recalled. "I saw it. I just started looking down the hall and there it was."

"I was praying for a sign, because I love to play bingo," Thompson said.

But she hasn't dotted her cards since the phenomenon; she's been too busy fielding visits. As word spreads, Thompson notices cars slowing on Johnson Avenue as they pass the duplex. Her ex-husband lives on the other side.

"If I'm in here, I don't mind them looking at it," Thompson said.

The "it" is an image of Jesus, arms outstretched gazing reverently to the left. If the light changes, he might move his head, she said.

"You can see his beard," Thompson said. "There were only two people that couldn't see it. One of them didn't believe in God. There's been a whole lot of kids. One kid took off running out of the room."

Thompson keeps her side of the duplex darkened. The hum of air conditioning was steady and soothing as she related the May morning she got off the phone with her granddaughter.

From her living room-kitchenette couch she had a straight-shot view to her back bedroom. The sun brilliantly illuminated the image of Jesus in the bottom right.

The curtain is actually a swirly, batik sort of comforter that Thompson had put up until she got new curtains.

"The closer you get to it, you can tell it's just an old blanket," she said.

She called the family to come over, and they "flipped out," but they saw.

Besides the excitement of neighbors and friends clamoring to photograph and film the blanket, Thompson said the vision has brought her blessings.

She'd been grieving a long-dead daughter and, after seeing Jesus, she felt the situation was "all shored up." She misses her, but the pain has eased.

"It kind of lifted. It was weird," she said.

Bingo hall assistant speaks out about fashion

Liz Hurley caught in the battle of the bulge!

Asian News International London, June 17, 2005

Hollywood beauty Elizabeth Hurley has irked women critics by her remarks that only slim women should wear tight clothes.

The actress, who recently launched her own line of beachwear, commented when asked about what fashion she would ban. "Anything that is too small or too tight, unless you're slim and toned. I'm sick of seeing flab bulging out all over," Liz was quoted by the Mirror, as saying. "Bare legs in a mini-skirt can look bad at any age," she added.

Bingo hall assistant Alison Baker, 33, said: "I'm a size 14 and I like wearing tight- fitting cropped tops. "Does that mean Liz Hurley will ban me from wearing them?"

7 ways to invent luck for yourself

7 ways to invent luck for yourself
Source: Casino Man Observer

1) Be an optimist. Think about the luckiest person who you know and it’s likely that he or she is a happy extrovert who has an approach on life that is open and relaxed. There is a good reason for this, and that is optimistic people will tend to believe that they generate their own luck. Even more so, these people tend not to dwell on past misfortunes.

This type of person also favors cooperation rather than competition. Thus creating an atmosphere that is positive and welcoming when they interact with other people. This increases the chances for good business networking, and by trusting others, lucky people seem to create opportunities and eventually luck finds them!

2) Learn from your mistakes. ... more
