	BlackChampagne -- no longer new; improvement also in question.: Give her Credit for Trying... Thursday, August 30, 2007 Give her Credit for Trying... Has everyone's 15 minutes of fame been simultaneously broadened and shortened by the Internet? That blonde bubble of a Miss South Carolina, with her YouTube-spread, 45 seconds of geographically-challenged infamy, has returned just days later with a video geography pop quiz on People.com. As you might expect, the questions are really difficult; mountain ranges in Antarctica, minor rivers in South America, etc. A sample: Which of the seven Canary Islands is located closest to Africa? 1) Fuerteventura 2) La Palma 3) Gran Canaria I got 5 out of 7, but I honestly only knew 2; I got 2 more on semi-educated guesses and blind luck for the 5th. I don't think anyone even considers the possibility that Miss. Blonde there knows a single one of the answers, but she's perky and cute (if you like 17 y/o blondes), and they had to pick hard questions just to play against the idiocy that is the source of her infamy. She's really annoying, though. I mean "someone slap her" annoying. Way too sure of herself, but that's what happens when you're a teen beauty queen and you've had everyone kissing your ass and paying attention to what you say as though it were interesting for the past 10 years. This is why ugly or shy or otherwise socially-disadvantaged people almost always have far more interesting personalities, while the pretty end up working in entertainment or as TV newscasters; professions where they can be pretty and put their fake smiling skills to full use, while reading words other people wrote for them. A far more interesting 7 question quiz would be questions for Miss. Teen Blonde USA. Easy questions of course, of the common-knowledge type that Howard Stern asks homeless people and porn stars: How many states are in the US? What continent is Germany part of? What's the capital of the US? What country did Hong Kong reunify with in 1999? ...and so forth. I'd give her 50% on those. Maybe.
