I will start by
saying I am in complete shock! I
can’t believe I won a Beauty Pageant!
How does something like this happen to a guy like me?………………..I
am just an Italian kid from Jersey who couldn’t get a date in high
school for cryin out loud. Now
I am Mr. Romance? ……….get the f***k out of here!!
Ya know, it’s funny how life tends to define itself.
This whole thing is the result of an anonymous e-mail from my web-site.
I never knew such a thing existed. I will also say this is one of
the top 10 funniest things to ever happen to me in my life, every time I
think of it I just laugh out loud. I
am so not the model guy.
When I came to the show I had no intentions of winning anything.
I was told you did not have to win to be on a book cover.
I thought it might be kind of neat to be on the cover of a Romance
novel. I came only expecting
another of life’s experiences, and walked away so full of energy. I really had a great time.
I met so many great people, wow!…………..everybody was so warm
and excepting. I have not
felt this good in a long time. I
want to thank you all for sharing your time with me.
Now I will have to say my mother has gotten a real kick out of this.
She is so excited, and cannot wait to see me on a cover.
But my father on the other hand is having a field day busting my
chops. Allow me to quote my
dad, he says, “Now I have a son, and I have a daughter……. but yet my
son wins a Beauty Pageant.”
I just want to thank everyone for being so great.
I applaud you!
Sincerely,
Tony Ranaudo
