This morning, Miss Ackerman directs our attention to this story on the front page of the New York Post. Many thanks to Sarah for linking the article -- it's one of the most hilarious things I've ever read.

The story: 29 year old Tammy Imre was apparently involved in a sexual relationship with an 8 year old boy. But here's the thing. She's a former model.
