This woman, who has won the title of Miss Nuclear, looks glowing and radiant. Let’s just hope it’s not something she brought home from the nuclear industry workplace.
Anyway, with nuclear energy being somewhat controversial, it seems sort of a bold move in 2007 to stage a Miss Nuclear pageant. So what does the winner get? A mink coat.
I’m serious. Nuclear, fur, and they openly bill it as a beauty pageant. If they could only get a cigarette company involved, they could just crown her Miss Political Incorrectness, 2007.

Officials were unsure of how to proceed when suddenly after being crowned, Miss Nuclear’s face slipped off to reveal a large green bug-like creature wearing a woman-suit. Eventually, they decided that, even as a slimy monster, the contestant still embodied the qualities that had earned the title to begin with.
- Posted by KI want my women like I want my nuclear power; hot and no “greenhouse” gas emissions.
- Posted by Shawn HendricksTrust me: in northern Russia a fur coat is much less of a luxury than it would be in California!

- Posted by Bob HawkinsWow, “no” greenhouse has huh? Sure, of course we’d prefer nuclear waste and risking nuclear meltdown that could cause radioactive waste spewing into our atmosphere rather than having greenhouse gas. Whatever it is, I don’t feel comfortable living near one. By near I meant at least a hundred miles.
