APhoto Of The Day — 10.8.10

The March page of a 2011 calendar created for Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin's 58th birthday on Thursday shows a girl with her name and a sign saying "Vladimir Vladimirovich, "You put out the forest fires, but I'm still burning!" referring to Russian Premier  Putin's piloting of a firefighting plane during the summer's devastating wildfires, in Moscow, Russia. The calendar shows 12  pinup  girls, all journalism students of Moscow State University. You write the cutline. (AP Photo/Arseny Grobovnikov, HO)

Top Cutlines:

  • 2. And somewhere Bill Clinton is saying to himself, “damn, why didn't I think of my own World Leader girlie calendar?”-- Formerly Sandpoint.
  • 3. The source of global warming found, it's Vladimir Putin! -- Charlie.
