Playboy Hunting for Home Depot 'Hotties'
ATLANTA - Asking Home Depot employees to trade their smocks and hammers for teddies and G-strings — at most — Playboy.com is looking for the "hotties" among the hardware giant's employees.


The adult magazine has featured women from corporations in the past, whether because of controversy, as was the case with Enron and WorldCom, or because the company is an industry icon, such as Starbucks or Wal-Mart.


"These companies have thousands and thousands of employees, and there are many beautiful women among them," Playboy.com spokeswoman Jay Jay Nesheim said, adding that women interested should submit photos, proof of age and a paycheck stub.


Home Depot is distancing itself from the photo shoot.


"The company is aware of the invitation but does not endorse it, support it, nor are we affiliated with it in any way," spokesman Don Harrison said, reading a prepared statement over the phone and refusing to comment further.

2. "many beautiful women among them" in which way?
I know what Playboy means but there are so many beautiful women that Playboy would reject.

3. well, I don't know which Home Depot
they're shopping at, but the ones near me have mostly gays and lesbians working there. Not quite what Playboy had in mind I'm sure, but it's a great place to shop!

9. I plan to conduct an exhaustive search at the Home Depots around here.
Heck, I'll search at Lowe's and independent hardware stores, too. I don't discriminate! :D

12. I can no longer stomach Hugh Hefner...
...he's just published "Hef's Little Black Book," which is described as "his sort of time-tested wisdom on matters of life and love, the everyday stuff that we can all relate to."

I dunno, the sight of a 78 year old man in a bathrobe surrounded by hordes of teenaged, surgically enhanced "girlfriends" gives me the creeps.
