If you recall...she beat out Miss Oklahoma. Because Miss Oklahoma got asked a question about the AZ illegal immigration law...and she answered it correctly, but not PC.

Miss Israel is cute, but there’s something weird about her face around the lower nose-to-upper lip area. I think she’s had a nose job and now the nose doesn’t fit her face. I suspect she had a serious hook at one time.

How can it be Miss Universe? There is not a single Klingon, Vulcan, Romulan, Ferengi or Borg entry!

If she’s a “Believer”, she would never be able to be seen w/o a veil and Burkha, unless she wanted to be killed by her Family for “crimes agains Allah”. So no, I don’t think she would get a “Happy Ramadan”.

She’s a real beauty though!

What does the institute of Hitting it sez?

It is my understanding that JRios1968 is involved in some capacity with The Institute Of Hitting It, perhaps as Public Information Officer, Steering Committee Captain or Resident Femme Fatale Point-Man, and so I must respectfully defer to his wisdom as to what, if any, official position will be adopted by The Institute on this and any other related matters.

In the meantime, here are some photos of  Stephany Ortega, Miss Uruguay 2010:

That’s some high-quality wimmins.

They should just name three runner’s up and make all the rest Miss Universe. :)

God Bless you and thank you for being so polite with the pictures.

Why thank you so much!  :-)  May God Bless you and yours as well, and as to being polite, I think that if we as a society can't show respect and adoration toward some of the most lovely ladies on Earth then there's not much point in our ever getting up in the morning, is there?  ;-)
