It's that time of year again. The greatest sporting event on the calender. I got a feeling that Brazil is going to win it. What do you think? http://www.santabanta.com/gallery.asp?parent=Miss%20Universe%202004&cat=Swimsuits

How does Puerto Rico end up with a slot?

P.C. is part of the States for F's sake! America gets two shots at the crown?

Then Quebec should have a shot, too! And Hong Kong and Macao! Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland! Gibraltar!

Something is fishy...

What did you expect? Compliance with international rules?? As if!

Hey I wonder if Miss Canada is on Dave's? She looks kind of humorless and conservative, don't you think? Wink

Miss Egypt could attack ME any day of the week.

Hold it just one second. This is supposed to be the "Miss Universe" contest, right?
So where's Miss Tralamfador? Yet more evidence of discrimation against methane-based beings, it would seem.

As I understand it Miss Trafalmador has decided to boycott the contest in response to blatant sexual harrassment suffered at the hands (and worse) of that EFL-teaching reprobate atlas:

So what's the word on Trafalmadorian girls? Big knockers or what? Is there a school uniform (hopefully short skirts)?

I want flight reimbursement! Last time I booked a shuttle I had two layovers, and the one in Ganymede cost me my Xianyang Market Louis Vitton suitcase! Damnd ineffecient customs agents!

Curricula: Can I integrate my specialization in Quantum Theocratic Deconstructionism? It's not hermeneutics but equally esoteric and satisfactorily difficult for the studenthood, and it's all the rage in savvy grant-writing circles.

What kind of bars are nearby? Any hot discos, or are they all sad sentimemtal Irish pubs full of old farts and young burnouts, and worst of all, ugly women?

Can I get deodorant there? I'm no Trafalmadorian peasant you know.

What about cheese?


and that's without mentioning

I don't know whether to be fascinated or appalled! I mean,
just when you think it couldn't get worse! Are there no limits
to acceptable behavior for teachers??


So I won't

You mean, besides the fact that they're all conservative, humorless
feminazis?
