TAMPA, Fla., June 18 (UPI) -- A Florida man resents paying alimony to his ex-wife, now that his ex-wife is a man.

"I didn't marry a man. I didn't divorce a man. The law is making me pay to a man," Larry Roach told WSTB-TV in Tampa.

Roach said that he wishes the former Julia Roach -- now Julio Silverwolf -- luck. But he resents paying $1,250 a month to maintain Julio's gender identity.

The couple met on a blind date and married a few months later. He said that he wondered why his wife had cut her hair short, her voice had deepened and she needed to shave.

But he said he only realized his wife had a new sex-changed identity when she got into an accident after their divorce and he looked up the police report. He discovered that she was now Julio.

Roach has remarried and would like to get out from under his alimony payments. But a judge told him that legally his ex-wife is still entitled to them.

Miffed couple to peddle smut in Colo. town

ALLENSPARK, Colo., June 18 (UPI) -- A couple in rural Colorado is blaming the county for forcing them to open a pornography store instead the of the ATV rental shop they wanted to run.

Jeff and Vicki Mead told the Daily Camera newspaper in Boulder, Colo., that the Boulder County Commission rejected their application for a permit to store and rent all-terrain vehicles in the tiny town of Allenspark, Colo., so they are going into the X-rated sector and plan to name their shop after neighbors who complained the loudest to the commission.

The Meads say they plan to set up shop in a former art gallery and have their grand opening in August.

"Allenspark is the most pornographic place I've ever seen," Jeff Mead told the Camera. "It's a town where half the people are paying attention to the other half's business. I thought it would fit right in."
