Ex-bearded lady

Description

You're approached by a fairly unremarkable-looking (although definitely remarkably-dressed) woman. She holds out her hand toward you and says "Spare a couple of Moolah for an ex-bearded lady?"

"Sorry, did you say EX-bearded lady?", you ask.

"That's right, 15 years behind a set of whiskers and proud of it! Spare a couple of Moolah?" she repeats.

"But, what happened?", you ask, bewildered.

"Oh, I was cured! I had a slight headache you see, and the doctor gave me some pills, and before you know it - BAM! All my whiskers fell out! One minute I'm a carnie with a trade, and the next minute my livelihood's gone. So, how about that Moolah?"

"Um, well, I don't really think so," you say, and start to walk away.
