You think logging's funny?

Yes, who knows. I agree with you about the whole thing being meaningless. They say it is for scholarships and stuff. I say it is just a live combination of a men’s magazine and a women’s glamour magazine (looking at what they are wearing and how they do their hair, etc., for ideas...). They put it on for the advertising dollars. It is big business.
So big deal, Columbia. Better luck next time.
Did they make Dewey Co-President with Truman?
If Trump winds up running against Hillary and wins because of a recount will he share the presidency with her?
Woah, you mean a whole truck with just two logs?
Exactly.
Your boxing analogy is probably as close as one can get.
It is sad that some, certainly more than I would have expected, can't understand the pageant debacle just on the facts. It tends to strengthen the view of some men that women should be treated similar to men and should react the same way.
And, oh yeah, while we are at it lets put them in combat roles with continuous deafening noises, screaming wounded friends and flying body parts. But I digress.
One media idiot says it happened in 2013, too. Well BS...That was the Miss Universe Canada.
And Harvey might like to learn how to spell the names of countries.
I agree with Trump....co-winners is the only solution. It’s a lot of money. Deduct it from Harvey’s paycheck. He’s a piece of crud.
Well Steve, don’t expect an invite in the mail for next years event. Stupid Dork.
Am I the only one laughing about your comment about the log truck?
Since Trump has already been crowned the GOP nominee, maybe he's worried about Cruz taking his crown away.
I'm 6-4 and the diameter of many of the logs were another 2- 3'. These weren't redwoods, of course, but firs. So with a loaded truck it was close to 16'+ above the bed of the truck. And, if you have ever had the pleasure/privilege of riding a logging truck down the hill, you know it was important to not be top heavy
Bottom line, I don't recall seeing a two log load (I may have, but it was several decades ago and I was almost always several hundred yards from the yarder. But I do recall the the loader under the spar tree mentioning it in passing.
On the other hand, I damn sure saw many 3 log loads (and I am yet to enjoy my first adult beverage this evening.) Did I mention these were the "old days" in between college years?
If you go to most people and ask, “Who is the most famous Miss America winner?” I’d be willing to bet the winner would be Vanessa Williams, hands down.....and she got stripped of her title. But so what?
It sounds to me like Steve Harvey was unable to read the piece of paper that was laid in his hands. He was unable to comprehend the part that said “1st runner up”.
He clearly needed to be led step by step with a teleprompter.
Are you kidding? I'm giving him a Lifetime Contract, he just gave the Pageant the kind of publicity they couldn't dream of. Now everybody will tune in next year just to see what happens.
I agree with Donald Trump again, something that keeps happening to me every day. Either they should declare a tie and have both win or give the runner up an expanded role. Miss Columbia didn’t do anything wrong and remember, she probably spent years preparing for this.

good gawd. talk about staring death in the face.
Yeah, gotta be shopped. Otherwise only Bruce Lee could duck fast enough.
LOL
Want to really have fun, go to the Miss Colombia pageant in November every year. This is also followed by their state of independence celebration. Their pageant is a 5 day fun fest that they close the entire city down for. Its not on the scale of the Carnival which is celebrated throughout South America but it can get up there in terms of festivities.
