News story... Now with added linkies

Sorry 'bout that guys gals and others. I did't pay attention to the preview before. Link isn't to the same article as the one posted below, but obviously same story. (Also it seems the hindustantimes article is more informative anyway.)

Headlines can give such a misleading idea.

The one in the subject was the headline I saw on the Telegraph's front page. Which got me thinking, indignantly, since when are they handing out asbos for crossdressing?

So I clicked on the link. The slightly longer headline on the page itself now said:

"Man 'breached Asbo by dressing as a schoolgirl'"

Hmm, ok, dressing as a schoolgirl a bit... Read on...

Turns out this is a 60 year old man hanging around primary schools dressed as a schoolgirl... Okaaaay, we're getting closer to the story now, and close enough, methinks...

A work colleague linked to this today. For some reason, more than other stories of this type, it's just left me feeling so sad and angry. I bet those parents think they're such good Christians.

Sorry for the long break. It won't happen again. :-)

Also a delay while I figured a way to produce HTML this site would be happy with. The French dialogue in the text is enclosed in cite tags like this and is 'dubbed' into English, there being no way to satisfactorily do the subtitling effect.
