I ask you, what is this world coming to when a lunch lady with a mullet lies on national television?

Apparently that is what happened on Sunday night’s season finale of “Survivor.” Fourth-place finisher Denise Martin said on live television Sunday that after she came back from China - where this season took place - she was forced to take the a janitorial night shift “cleaning toilets” because her newfound fame had become a distraction.

Producers felt so bad that they gave her $50,000 to get back on her feet. But Nancy T. Lane, the superintendent of Douglas Public Schools in Massachusetts, said the lunch lady is a liar.

“Although Mrs. Martin was a cafeteria employee prior to her selection as a contestant, she asked to be considered for a promotion to full-time custodian and was promoted to this position...” Lane said
in a statement.

Hmmm. That’s the kinda fib that’s pretty easy to get busted for.

Maybe the lunch lady’s hairnet was on just a tad too tight?

Update: Lunch lady went on CBS Early Show and said: "It was not my intention to be misleading. I'm sorry, and I apologize to everybody."
She also released this statement: "I do not feel comfortable about accepting the $50,000. I would instead ask that it be donated to the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation. Please accept my apology. I would also like to thank all the people who have supported me through this experience."
