Current events part 2: Questions, no answers.

Why in the world does anybody care about this?
When was the last time beauty pageants were relevant to anything remotely important?
When was the last time Donald Trump was relevant to anything remotely important?
Is the Miss USA pageant even on television anymore?
Is Bert Lahr still the host?
Or is it Bert Convy?
Or is it Bert and Ernie?
Burt Reynolds? (note: I'll watch it if he is)
Is there nothing else going on right now?
Aren't there people hanging out up in space?
Isn't there some other televised utterly vapid popularity talent competition that's supplanted the Miss USA contest?
Is Miss America the same thing as Miss USA?
If not, isn't it time we had a playoff?


UPDATE: Jon Stewart has similar concerns (or lack thereof)...

Yeah, remember when pageant contestants had to be smart? No? Neither do I.
