She wasn't really a model, but knew someone involved in hiring models for the car shows
It helped pay her way through college.

She said it was real good money, but the days were long. I remember being shocked to hear
how much she was hit on everyday.

College paid for, but hit on every day.

Possibly less sordid than my late 'seventies early 'eighties life.

Maybe not on the street, but if you go to restaurants or receptions, or other events, you'll find that people enjoy dressing up. I notice that whenever I'm back there.

Not saying that Melissa Carone is a fashion icon, though.

If she actually signed an “affadavid” stating that, she could be in big trouble...and if she didn’t, I think her career just got a big boost.

I don't think Borat is going to belatedly appear. MI Trump-supporting part-time worker getting a moment sounds a lot more likely. However, it is easy to believe this is her notion of how she should look and act.

Our DIL was sent to count votes last spring as a county employee. We're so glad she's out of it this time; she keeps expecting to see someone she recognizes on the news coverage.

and her Facebook and LinkedIn profiles, this really doesn't appear to be the same person.

Similar looking, but a lot of differences, also. Looks like it may be coincidence, with two people sharing the same name.

She neither looked nor sounded real in the testimony. The "fake" was rather obvious I thought. I didn't suppose she was an actress, just a bad liar and GOP political operative like the others.

These aren’t mishaps...it’s staged intentional distraction.

Propoganda.

From the press conference location to the dripping hair dye to the actress they hired.

They’re not “dumb” and this is not funny.

The more people laugh at them the more that appeals to their non-critical thinking cult base.

[link:https://medium.com/indica/i-lived-through-a-coup-america-is-having-one-now-437934b1dac3|

Your Republicans have set forces into play they cannot possibly understand and certainly cannot control. And they don’t even want to. To them, chaos is a ladder.

This is the point. You have taken an orderly system balancing a whole lot of chaos and fucked with it. I don’t know how it’s going to explode, but I can promise you this. It’s going to explode.

This is precisely why we have elections, and why both sides accept the results. To keep the chaos at bay. The whole point is that you have a regular, ritual fight rather than fighting all the time. Once one side breaks ritual then you’re on the way to civil war. Once you break the rules then chaos ensues. What exactly happens? I don’t know. It’s chaos.
