Oh right, we meant to link to The Hill newspaper's 50 Most Beautiful 2009 feature, aka the annual "Hill Hotties" list, which hit the stands earlier this week. As is tradition, we turn to DCist alum Jason Linkins, aka DCeiver and now of the Huffington Post, for the crucial analysis:

What makes The Hill's annual listicle is, frankly, The Hill itself. With their oddball fixations, strange beauty metaphors, and bizarre photography decisions, the keepers of this list have always been one of the main attractions. Sadly, this year's list is not nearly as bizarre as last year's was. I like to think that maybe The Hill is working hard to deprive me of material. Sounds arrogant? Maybe. But the alternative -- that our government is getting less beautiful -- is just too difficult to contemplate.

While SFist cringed at the fatal dose of crime littering the Bay Area, it found solace in Hillary Clinton's San Francisco campaign headquarters opening, which featured loads of exposed mammary glands. In other news, SF Taxi Commission ruled that Satan's cab must keep its (in)famous medallion number, 666; and in an un-fashion-forward frenzy, San Francisco Fashion Week (chortle) bars bloggers from covering and getting smashed at their shows and parties, respectively. Also, they found a...

Wasabi Wa-opens I have been searching for a good cafeteria-style Japanese place for a while. Since I'd be happy to go to Kotobuki every single day for lunch if it weren't in Outer Mongolia, the opening of Wasabi gives me great joy. Conveniently located at 17th and I Streets, NW, for you downtowners, it's a welcome addition to a scene dominated by places like the Park Place Gourmet. While my lunchtime map is roughly bordered...

Yesterday, we received an e-mail that nearly fell to its death in the spam filter. Hidden among Nigerian flim-flam scams, phishing attempts, and advertisements for products purporting to be able to enlarge our manhood (this morning's: "Does 8 incches enough 4 U?") was a message advising us that DC Style magazine seemed to be holding a "10 Hottest Chefs in DC" competition.

You know it's August and the news has slowed down considerably when everybody starts running their "Who's The Hottest fillintheblank" type polls. The Hill ran their 50 Most Beautiful (which was appropriately snarked by the DCeiver, who in turn got a mention in Newsweek!); Gawker's already done a bunch of hottie media types; and now FishbowlDC is running their own media Hot-A-Thon, featuring several members of the D.C. media elite. The categories are Hottest On-Air...

(Someone replied saying that hot guys ride the bus as well, and that a little "southern comfort" would snag a date at Bourbon.)

DCist always enjoys taking a look through the Craigslist missed connections every once and a while to get a chuckle or two, e.g. "4 Hotties in Bethesda Chipotle @ 7:PM!", "Crying on the Yellow Line" and "MC with a weatherman."
