Is There an Ugly Award? Is the City Council of Mission Viejo really serious about the ugly of the uglies design for Rose Parade floats? The real problem – that it isn't funny, it's just laughable. Apparently, it is to promote the character path that is all too seldom used. What do the bears signify? We do have coyotes and rarely a bobcat or two, but who has seen any bears lumbering through Mission Viejo streets or yards? I assume the water represents Lake Mission Viejo. With the diver on the board, wouldn't it have been better to honor the pool used by the Nadadores? We have produced some excellent divers (especially Greg Louganis) and some fine national swimming competitors. If we must spend such money ($300,000, perhaps more), can't we have a decent float design? Please do not embarrass us. Beverly Cruse |
