...existence has hardly been a charmed one. I was stripped of my first Miss Teen USA crown after I posed for a series of nude photographs. I tried to argue that the photographs were tastefully done, that they were more art than pornography—I was wearing a bow tie in them. But apparently the Miss Teen USA judges had a problem with the whole having-a-penis thing.

Watch for arbitrary arrests of opposition supporters, journalists and anyone else not prepared to bow to Mugabe's dictatorial ways. If things get really ugly, the military could step in. Mugabe will rig the election; when he wins, Zimbabwe will be further criticized and isolated...
