Moonlighting or what?

Heard an awful lot about moonlighting..but was totally taken aback by this one. Some days back, I read in a local tabloid that a female student of hotel management, from a middle class family was part-timing as a shoe shine girl at Bandra Railway Station. What more, she had no expertise of shining shoes and did nor possess a valid licence to operate off the station platform.

She did this not for a few bucks more or for personifying women's lib but for the sheer thrill of it.
And I thought "Out-of -the-box Thinking" was the domian of the esoteric intelligentsia.

Its a different matter that she was forced out of this job by cops as she was "drawing much too attention" and "causing public nuisance".

Mooning? Mooning should be a carefully regulated industry. Too many bloated old buggers out there...

Moonlighting as a serial killer, now that's a job i'd love to try.
