So Tom,exactly what class did enter them in?

stock and modified !  ?

The first time I got a call, the lady got about five questions in before I realized she thought this was a beauty contest!

No- "Your" expectations were pretty much "Their" expectations, too... :)

Hey, at my age and the fact l do occasionally look in the mirror, well let's just say I'm a realist.

I  believe it went like this  (remember this is back towards the end of the last century)

Lady:  Hello my name is Jane Doe and my daughter is interested in participating in your modeling competition on Saturday.

Me:  Great!   We'd be happy to have her!

Lady: Does she need any affiliations to enter?

Me:  No, everyone is welcome to participate

Lady: I see it starts at 9am.  Do we need to be there at a specific time, like 7am?

Me:  No, anytime after 9 is fine.

Lady: How do we preregister?

Me: We don't preregister, you can find a registration form at the table outside in the morning. Fill it out and she is good to go!

Lady: How many costume changes should we anticipate?

Me:   (getting uncomfortable)   Um, it's a casual event.  T-shirt and jeans...  what do you think this is?

Lady:  A beauty pageant.

Me:  No, this is a model car show for people who build model cars.

Lady:  +Click+

About 10 years ago, I had a recruiter contact me about a modeling job in Miami...it was for male models for catalog modeling, I think.  Pretty funny, I think they got the keyword  'modeling' off my online resume, as I do have that word twice on my resume---as in 'data modeling' and 'object-oriented modeling', two design tasks I've done as part of my work as a software engineer...   

It is funny, I'm seeing the 'Meet Ukrainian Ladies Now' ad in this thread, and there are a lot of Ukrainians in this area--my neighbors are Ukrainian immigrants.
