Dear Yolanda,

Whenthey make the movie of your life story, who will play you and the other

important people in your life? —

— Movie Buff
Dear Buff,

Madonna will star as Yolanda; Princess Di will make a comeback as Cherie Tartt and
the role of ]’Andrue, the fabulous hair-styling maven of The Cherie and Yolanda show, is being
contracted out to Theater On a.Shoestring Talent Search Incorporated. At this time Helen
Reddy and Greg Louganis are being considered: whichever one makes it to the VT GLBT pride
celebration this year. '

l » Dear Yolanda,

What was your inspiration for writing my favorite song “Angels”?
—Curious in Colchester

Dear Curious, - »

When I first moved to Vermont I dated a guy who worked with mentally challenged
people. I-le-loved his job and referred to the people he worked with as “angels struggling to
become people.”

Dear Yolanda,
People» are always saying, “well they told me to do this”, and “they said that
I should”, or “did you hear what they said about .... ..”. Is what THEY say true?
And just who are THEY, anyway? I
- —-Confused

Dear Confused, _
“They” just so happens to be me, Yolanda; and yes, everything I say is true.

Dear Yolanda,‘ .
I am a young rodent living in a comfortable Hinesburg home with three cats, a dog
and two queens. The other day, while making my rounds, I notices this lovely silver
house they purchased for me. There was a delightful table of peanut butter and sun
flower seeds set in the middle of the room. Unfortunately, the walls collapsed and
now I am trapped. Was it something I said?

—Oblina in Hinesburg

Dear Oblina,
Bad breath is indeed a terrible thing to deal with. It can wreak havoc on the world——
it's no wonder you are in the tragic state of affairs you are in now. Have you ever thought of

. using Altoids?
