1. Beauty pagent, definitely. Haven't seen a debate here in MONTHS ...

2. in re: the nomination ... cool. Thank you (*Wolf curtseys appreciatively*)

And by the way ... thanks for getting the "Miss" right ... "Ms." makes me damn crazy ... I thought it was a stupid construction when we first started having to use it in the 70s. I don't think that the change in linguistics has any major effect with respect to perception, respect, position, etc.

I'm a Miss until offered otherwise.
