This video is hilarious and is a parody of a much longer video posted by the Miss USA video, Should Evolution be Taught in Schools.

BTW, if you have time sometime, you should watch the official Evolution video as well. It is an eye-opener.

But I liked math. It was the only subject I could pass without studying.

I've seen this video; a bunch of people sent me the link when the video first came out. It's a funny video. Although watching the original which it skewers might cause my head to asplode, because teh stoopid contained within it hits so close to home. I get a dose of it almost weekly.

Coincidentally, it's Carl Sagan's birthday today. Happy Carl Sagan Day.

I honestly hope my kids (who were not pageant kids I might add) are not as blatantly ignorant as some of these girls appear to be. However, these contestants reallllly remind me of many newscasters I see on news stations.

^Me too. I loved math. My handwriting wasn't too good. So I print. Always. Unless I have to sign my name. Or when I pretended to be the tooth fairy and wrote a letter to my daughter. I figured my daughter had never seen my handwriting so there was no way she's bust me for writing it.
