I received an email from America ATT368445.jpgon the recent "Miss Thailand" contest from an 80+ year old friend. Gene is married to Jenny for over sixty years and has a "Chicago Italian" way of looking at things that is often hilarious. His concept of "a guy in a dress" is all one thing unless it was Milton Berle doing it for comedy.

Observing at the end that these great pictures was the phrase "Miss ->-bleeped-<- Contest" I felt a need to write my old friend kindly and share some of what I have learned from reading "The Bilerico Project." I had to do this in a unique way because I am dealing with a pretty traditional fellow.
