Wendy is a 20-year-old 3rd-year graduate student.  She is undoubtedly one smart cookie.  But with her girlish face, her petite figure, and her big round eyes, she looks younger than even she is.

For example, last week, when I went with her to a hospital last week, a little boy standing in front of us instantly identified with Wendy.  He started a conversation with her, and stated he thought Wendy was five years old.  While I was laughing, his mother tried to appease Wendy by saying to the boy:  “John, the young lady is much older than you are.”  The boy rolled his eyes, thought for a minute, and said reluctantly, “Six?”

So you can appreciate the trouble Wendy may have had trying to get into a club in Vegas for the first time last summer.  She had borrowed a passport, but the bouncer was determined not to let her in.  “Kid, I’m going to take you to the police station and let them see if you are really of age.”  Wendy did not back down.  “Take me to the police.  I want to go to the police.”  The bouncer went speechless, and simply took Wendy out of the line and waved her off.
