My, my, my, how time does fly when you're enjoying yourself ... or
unconscious for most of the day.
Vine glanced at the calendar for the first time this year and realised
with a start that it is already September and we have not yet called for
entries to our annual, superb and indeed, magnificent, Hunk and Babe of
the Year competitions.
As usual, we are adhering to excessively high standards when selecting
the winners.
As for the entries, we'll take anyone that's going ... so this is your
chance to vote for that bloke you've been salivating over for the last
eight months, or that chick you've secretly been eyeing up as you
pretend to use the fax machine next to her desk for the 17th time
today.
Last year's Hunk winners were the entire Economist team, largely in
recognition of their mass penchant for taking their clothes off in
public (now, where did we put that photo of Rupert Harrow again?).
Over on the Babe side, it was the magnificent Angela Pih from DY&R.
And here's an uncanny twist to the tale: every single Hunk and Babe that
has ever won has immediately left the country as a result of an instant
improvement in their career prospects: the Economist boys (apart from
Rupert) headed off to San Francisco and London, while Angela is also now
in San Francisco (ooh, can there be a tenuous connection?).
So send those entries in NOW!
