April Fools’ Day: The Hill

A reader sends in this joke:

“The Hill newspaper last night posted online its annual ’50 Most Beautiful People’ contest winners.

Brittany Dorothy (seen below), age 23, a former Senate intern who is now a federal lobbyist for Maidenform, was selected by the Hill’s editorial staff for the paper’s ‘Most Beautiful’ list’s top slot.

Last year’s top slot went to Rep. Brad Ellsworth (D-IN), and previous lists have included such noteworthy ‘hotties’ as Sen. John Thune (R-SD), Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).

The other 2008 winners can be found online today at http://www.thehill.com and in tomorrow’s hard copy edition.”
