Who could have guessed that the next big trend would be nun-matador bars? But here they are, wildly successful - at least, you know, in cities that have both nuns and matadors.

- Posted by Janet“So wither’d and so wild in their attire,
That look not like the inhabitants o’ the earth,
And yet are on’t? Live you? or are you aught
That man may question? You seem to understand me,
By each at once her chappy finger laying
Upon her skinny lips: you should be women,
And yet your [red hankies] forbid me to interpret
That you are so.”
