02/12/2008: "You Could Have Just Asked Us ..."
It's February, and here at the Home Office that means only one thing - Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Issue! You may recall that last year, we railed about the poor choice of cover model, while singing the praises of Marisa Miller and her iPod bathing suit. Well the other suits at SI must have been listening, because Marisa's this year's cover model!! Not as prestigious as MB Weekend Eye Candy, but what the heck.
A couple of other interesting tidbits from the SISI ...
- Among this year's celebrity models is Indy driver Danica Patrick. Now, considering her looks, this might seem a perfect fit, but I'll confess to being a bit disappointed. Not only did they airbrush out her racing flag tattoo in most of the pics, but it would appear that Ms. Patrick has developed a bit of a butt. Admittedly, it's still pretty fine, but probably suits her better by lowering her center of gravity in a high-G turn than in a bikini bottom.
- It wasn't that long ago that people were feeling sorry for Jeff Gordon. After all, his driving career seemed to have peaked and his trophy girl wife left him with most of his cash. Feel sorry no longer. Not only did he take second place in last year's NASCAR standings, but his new wife is in the SISI - and there's nothing second place about her!
- Down side: There's another plug for that goddamn Will Ferrell and one of his lame-ass movies. It was bad enough when he did the Budweiser commercial in character during the Super Bowl, but now he's puking up a perfectly good Heidi Klum pictorial - just to pimp a movie that'll probably go straight to DVD.
