A blind man decided to visit Texas. When he boarded the plane, he felt the seats and said, "Wow, these seats are big!"
The person next to him answered, "Everything is big in Texas."
When he landed in Texas and stepped out onto the tarmac, he took a deep breath and said, "Wow, the air smells different here! It's so... big!"
The man sitting next to him, who had overheard, laughed and said, "Well, that’s because everything is big in Texas, even the air!"
Curious, the blind man asked, "Is the sky bigger too?"
The man grinned. "Of course! Even the sky is bigger here. I mean, have you seen our sunsets? They’re so big they take up the whole horizon!"
As they drove through the city, the blind man continued to feel the surroundings and said, "Everything feels so spacious! The roads, the buildings—everything's so open!"
The driver, clearly proud of his state, replied, "That’s right! Here in Texas, we believe in big space. Our ranches are so big, you could walk for hours and still not see the end of it!"
Later, at a restaurant, the waiter handed the blind man the menu, and the man sighed, "Wow, this menu is huge! I feel like I could spend the whole day reading it!"
The waiter laughed and said, "That’s nothing! Our portions here are as big as our state! When we serve you food, you’ll be able to feel the size difference!"
And sure enough, when the blind man received his meal, it was enough to feed a small army. He felt the plate, then looked at his companion and said, "I guess everything really is big in Texas... even the leftovers!"
