Following a semi-disastrous group lunch at Borough Food & Drink [Ed: Jeffrey Chodorow's kitschy new enterprise, and home to the worst roasted duck salad in all the land] your enterprising young Jossip editors were sitting at our desks, wishing we'd ordered the harder-to-ruin BLT sandwich while simultaneously trying to block out the crazy ramblings of our all-too-audible officemates and marveling about how today is the slowest, least eventful news day in the world.
And then, as luck would have it, we received the following email missive from the indefatigable Intern Wendy.
"I LOOOVE FoxNews.com," she writes, in what we can only interpret as unbridled sincerity. "This is on their front page right now," she adds, referring to a topless photo of Russian prez Vladamir Putin (semi-appropriately captioned, "Ravishing Russian: Vladimir Putin poses stripped to the waist, fishing rod in hand.")
All of which left us with three burning questions:
1. When is Putin going to have an "Abs-Off" with Barack Obama?
2. How in the hell did 1/2 Hour News Hour fail?
And, of course, where in the hell is Men's Health's Dave Zinczenko when you (finally!) need him?

I thought your article was so humorous (like the roasted duck) and the abs-off with Obama.
Ya know, I think this Putin guy could be a real presidential contender if he somehow were to be granted US citizenship. Can you see him and Obama with muscle man poses (and super thighs Hillary striking a pose ).
I think he would be less dangerous than Bush and he has fine tastes in women…he's our man!
