Dead Fat Lady

[Posted by Ted H]

So the fat lady who went on to inspire me to write "Fat Lady Rolling Down a Steep Hill" died recently. Now, unlike Romero's passing, no one cares about this death. But I figure it needs to be addressed.

The story the poem tells is partly true. Assuming she didn't make the story up, this woman did indeed fall down a hill in the rain and take a picture of Robert Frost's grave. I may have taken liberties with the earthquake and tree killing, but I have for sure seen the picture she took, which she used as a bookmark.

Fun facts, you guys!
