RIPPED FROM THE HEADLINES



During the weekly staff meeting at Beauty School, where the meaning of Jerry Springer and Mel B were on the agenda, we heard the inimitable click, click, click of our librarian's high heels out in the hall. This usually means she's delivering us an envelope. Sure enough, she did, with this note "Boys, I know you are in Miss Universe withdrawal syndrome, thought you'd like this article. Luv Ya, Lorraine." It's a delicious story of how a man who had a sex-change entered a beauty pageant and won. It took place in Italy in 1990. Seem' the hairdresser for the pageant recognized a tatoo on the newly annointed queen that she remembered she had helped draw years before on a man. She alerted the judges and the new "queen" was stripped of her title. The dethroned title holder sniffed, "They accepted me as woman and that what I am." Hey we dont' make this stuff up, we just report it.
