Some of my girlfriends and I like to joke that guys are all looking for a supermodel with a PHD, and they get so disappointed that they can't have one. I always though of th PHD supermodel as just a joke. Then I read about the new Miss Wisconsin. She's 22 years old, and she just got her MD.

Yes, that's right, a 22 year old with a medical degree. At fourteen she skipped right on to college. She's also been playing cello since she was three. Now she's off to try for the title of Miss America (which would really take a bite out of that med school debt). She also plans to use her title as a platform to advocate organ donation. (Her dad died for want of a kidney.)

The one thing that made me really bugged me was that, according to the Sunday Wisconsin State Journal (not online), she is 5'4" and 110 lbs, and is planning to lose about 5 lbs before the Miss America Pagent. You'd think that of all people, a doctor would understand and respect the whole "healthy weight for one's height". 110lbs is cutting it close, and 105 lbs is getting into underweightville.

Still, I may actually find myself watching the pagent in a few months.
