You’ve heard of Miss America and Miss USA, right? Maybe even Miss Insert-your-state-here. Well, Mississippi goes to GREAT length with their Miss Titles. For instance…

Miss Highway Patrol? What did she have to do to get that title???

Miss Craft Center? Rather a benign title, but whatever. Hm, is that some knitting, sewing, quilting title or what?
Here they were just handing out titles willy nilly. Miss State University. Miss Valley State University. Miss University for Women.
I’m just sayin’, if you want to win a title, I think you should move to Mississippi, because as you can see, they freely give out titles in this state.
The title that started off this whole discussion on our road trip? Miss Juvenile Detention Center. Wow, her mother must be so proud…
Why, yes, we do get slap happy on our long road trips, why do you ask?? :crazy:

Love the way you two entertain yourselves! Must make the trip fly by!
LOL! I’ve never noticed that. Hilarious!
LOL. And do you know that Miss Mississippi is one of the winningest among the Miss Americas? Hmmmm? Don’t make fun of my natal state!
LOL Those darn southerners like slapping crowns on all their women, don’t they? LOL

well written sweetie. I still got a good laugh out of your retelling. thanks.
It was a fun road trip, I admit! MPM, I’m not trash talking Mississippi…like I said we used to have a cute little farm there. I miss it. But, that said, Mississippi is not without its quirks!
That’s funny, it reminds me of when I had my landscape business. One of my customer’s last name was Sippy. I always got a chuckle addressing Mr. and Mrs. Sippy
What a fun way to pass the time when traveling together.
That’s hilarious!!!
Now I have a sudden desire to toodle around Mississippi just to find amusing signs.
It doesn’t take much to entertain you guys, does it? I have a nephew who gets quite a chuckle when he drives through Weiner, Arkansas. He can come up with some pretty good one liners, some of which I won’t repeat.
Reminds me of our favorite retail clerk from the old Famous Barr days… remember Miss Cares?
LOVED it – too funny!
Oh, my gosh!!! Miss Cares!!! I forgot all about her!!!
