Recently a petite girl with pierced eyebrows, nose,
lip, ears and bellybutton walked into the community
college adminstrations office where I work.

I was
shocked by her appearance, but she seemed very
pleasant and listened carefully as I explained
what was required for admission.

I noted that before enrollment we would need proof
of immunization.

At this she froze and asked nervously,
"You mean they're gonna stick me with a needle?"
