I'm a master an humurous photoshoppery, actually. See above. :P @ VB, Others: I'm sorry I'm making fun of the Miss America pageant, it is a usefull, wonderful organization. I was using the humor of the stereotype to make fun of the fact that it has an "official" comactflash card supplier. Am I the only one laughing? NW Guy: I was kidding, of course.

As the national spokesperson for MADD, much of her time was spent educating countless schoolchildren and teenagers about the dangers of drunk driving. All that, but not ONE mall opening or minor league baseball game. Huh. Maybe you should do some research before making fun of someone who has worked so hard and accomplished so much.

I thought you would have just photoshopped in a flash card, didn't know that your journalistic/geek standards also supported your eye candy. CG standards!!

How can they sleep at night knowing they've done so much good in the community and are only positioning themselves for success in life? Man, how awful.
