~ The Man, The Myth, The Legend.....~

" Don't be fooled by his sweet and caring face..." (By the way that's Miki -even he knows not to look directly into SR's eyes).

" Trying to hide from the camera or is that one of those antique peep show devices that Sony has just put out. Boy, every man in America is going to want one of those! I bet SR hides his right along with his growing Playboy book collection....Mr All-American isn't he? "

" Well, need I say more....First of all your underwear belongs in a drawer, second of all is that holes I see? Good grief! if you have an itchy rash do something about it. There are creams for that now! Thirdly, let's not even discuss all the stains.....Next, I suppose you will claim that those are tea-stained and that Lynn did it....."

It has been brought to my attention several times by several women, that it is about time to reveal the character behind all the stories....I am talking of course about SR (Lynn's hubby). How many men do you know would have put up with all the stories and hard times I have given this man-probably not tooooo many. He has been a great sport! I thought I would give everyone a little history about this unique man. He was raised by loving parents in a side show carnival. The carnival began in Mexico City and migrated over to Texas. His mother was a trapeze artist and his father was the guy they shot out of the cannon. SR (which stands for Severo) originally started out feeding the Lions and then graduated to being the Bearded Lady. No one knew he was a boy, so why force the issue if you can make a buck. I believe this is where SR's love for dressing up in women's clothing originated. Anyway, let's get back to his childhood. His grandparents were also part of the carnival. His grandfather swallowed swords up until the day he ruptured his gut with a rusty blade and passed away from Lock Jaw. And although his grandmother was devastated by her husband's passing, she continued on as the beloved Wolf Woman. She could be seen chasing cattle at midnight by the full moon. Unfortunately, one night she got too close to a steer and she was kicked so hard that they still haven't found her. What a wondrous childhood SR must have had. Now we know why he does the things he does. With a family history such as this, one cannot help but to feel compassion and love for this man. Both tragic and strange at the same time. Now we know why we need to steer clear of him at fleamarkets and garage sales. I can't even begin to imagine what memories he must have stored away. So ladies if you happen to bump into him or see him approaching run for your lives-your fleamarket treasures could be in jeopardy. But beware he is a man of many disguises-a chameleon of sorts. A devil in disguise dressed as an old woman.....Beware.......
