MISS WILLIAMSBURG PAGEANT

Are you the coolest girl in the Burg?

Do you spend hours trying to make it look like you are not even trying?

Do you secretly wish that for once there would be a pageant where you could get some credit for that new hot trend on Bedford avenue that you KNOW you invented?

NOW IS YOUR CHANCE!!!!! The first annual Miss Williamsburg Pageant is now taking applicants.

We want to crown the most creative, talented and original individuals, girls whose boyfriends have the best record collections and play in the coolest bands, girls who cut their own hair, or pay someone to make it look like they did, who make their own clothes out of beachwood, rags, and scrap metal, who excell at karaoke and scrabble, can shotgun PBR's and do the robot at the same time.

To be eligible to compete you must

1. be a girl, 21 +

2. have proof of residency in or around Williamsburg. OR you have to have stayed over night there with a guy you were sort of seeing and be able to get photographic proof and/ or 2 sworn testimonials from WB residents.

If you meet these requirements and you want to be considered for The Miss Williamsburg Pageant 2005, please send an email with

your name address date of birth your talent (your contribution to the "talent" portion of the pageant) breif description of yourself at least one photo and the answer to this question: If you were chosen to be Miss Williamsburg 2005, how would you use your title to better the world and why?
