The Fall
One day, some historian will make use of today's story about the fall of Miss USA at the Miss Universe pageant (for the second year in a row!) as a metaphor for the beginning of the decline of the United States in the early 21st century.
I hope they'll also remark on how quickly she got up, and resumed her stride.
