One of the high points of the Queen of the Universe Pageant is the parading of girls in
the natioanl costume of their country of origin. Since, however, a majority of the girls are
Filipina, a certain latitude is allowed in determining the country. Hence, representatives
from Zimbabwe, Wallis and Fortuna Islands, Cook Islands, Wales, Iceland, etc etc, all
looked suspiciously Flip to moi.

Similarly, the interpretation of what constitutes a "national costume" seemed to moi to be
a little elastic, not unlike the material the costumes were made from.

Who am moi to quibble though? After all there might be fake national origins and fake
national costumes, but moi knows that the girls, at least, were genuine, doesn't moi?
