We are currently looking for contributors to help build the most indispensable man-database in the history of the universe. If you have a passion for men of a particular ilk or just want to hash out the vagaries of your own mancrushes, drop us a line. You'll start by being responsible for adding men to the database, with the possibility of becoming a columnist, blogger, or moderator. Requirements include: At least ten (10) viable mancrushes, the ability to write compelling entries under extreme pressure, and at least one finger on the pulse of pop-culture. The ideal candidate will be able to provide unique insight into various mancrush rivalries (Les Stroud/Bear Gryllis, Ben Affleck/Matt Damon, Ernest Hemingway/F Scott Fitzgerald, etc). Benefits include national exposure, a Mancrush.com BBQ apron, wild parties and, of course, lots of women.

And the Oscar for Most Mancrushable Performance goes to...George Clooney in "Michael Clayton." This is the 89th Oscar and 250th nomination for George Clooney.

Good evening. Monday, our fellow web users, our way of life, our very mancrushing freedom came under attack in a series of deliberate and deadly spam-bot acts. The victims were in the top-ten, or the top fifty; scientists, philosophers and artists, actors and athletes; brothers and dads, writers and politicians. Thousands of entries were suddenly downvoted by evil, despicable acts of spam-botting. The images of spam-bots downvoting men into the 400s and 300s, huge vote totals collapsing, have filled us with disbelief, terrible sadness, and a quiet, unyielding anger. These acts of mass downvoting were intended to frighten our website into chaos and retreat. But they have failed; our website is strong. A great people has been moved to defend a great website. Spam-bot attacks can shake the vote totals of our biggest mancrushes, but they cannot touch the foundation of Mancrush.com. These acts shattered numbers, but they cannot dent the amount of Mancrush resolve. Mancrush.com was targeted for attack because we're the brightest beacon for Mancrushing opportunity in the world. And no one will keep that light from shining. Today, our website saw evil, the very worst of human nature. And we responded with the best of Mancrush -- with the daring of our interns, with the caring for strangers and neighbors who came to alert us and help in any way they could. Immediately following the first attack, I implemented our website's emergency response plans. Our web-security intern group is powerful, and it's prepared. Our first priority is to get help to restore totals to those who have been downvoted, and to take every precaution to protect our entries from further attacks. The functions of our website continue without interruption. Our institutions remain strong, and the Mancrush store will be open for business, as well. The search is underway for those who are behind these evil acts. I've directed the full resources of the Mancrush Integrity Committee to find those responsible and to bring them to justice. We will make no distinction between the spammers who committed these acts and the websites who harbor them. I appreciate so very much the members of the site who have joined me in strongly condemning these attacks. And on behalf of Mancrush users, I thank the many world leaders who have called to offer their condolences and assistance. Mancrush.com and our friends and allies join with all those who want peace and security on the internet, and we stand together to win the war against spam-bot attacks. Tonight, I ask for your prayers for all those who grieve, for the children whose worlds have been shattered, for all whose sense of Mancrushing safety and security has been threatened. And I pray they will be comforted by a power greater than any of us, spoken through the ages in Psalm 23: "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me." This is a day when all Mancrushers from every walk of life unite in our resolve for justice and peace. Mancrush.com has stood down enemies before, and we will do so this time. None of us will ever forget this day. Yet, we go forward to defend site integrity and all that is good and just in our website. Thank you. Good night, and God bless Mancrush.com.

Some changes have gone into effect on the site. You must now log-in to vote and post comments in the Public Forum. These measures were taken to preserve the integrity of the only ranked index of male notoriety in the history of the universe. Thanks!

With Ambrose Mannington still on vacation, The Artful Dodger stepped in for another chat this afternoon. Posted NOW under the Ask Ambrose tab!

Gianluca Rubzonni (Dec. 25, 1903- June 6, 1974) was an Italian mason from Nola, Campania Region, and is generally credited with the invention of the Rub Zone. Rubzonni was the illegitimate son of a prominent local politician, Luca Rubzonni, and his mistress. Rubzonni endured a rough childhood and adolescence on account of his illegitimate conception, and it is widely believed that the hardships and rejection he faced during this time formed the foundation of his inspiration for the Rub Zone. At the age of 19 Rubzonni immigrated to America to start a career as a mason in Brooklyn, New York. Rubzonni’s masonry has been described as competent at best, and oftentimes worse. In 1925 he met Stella Baccamassagio, the daughter of Roberto and Carmella Baccamassagio, two of the first Italian pioneers in the field of massage therapy. Rubzonni and Baccamassagio were married on January 3rd, 1929, and took their honeymoon at Spring Lake Ranch, Vermont. It was at Spring Lake Ranch that Rubzonni’s genius was first realized. As a wedding gift to Baccamassagio, Rubzonni designed and taped-off a 5-foot square trapezoidal zone directly in front of the fireplace of their cabin, an area designated exclusively for the exchanging of back-rubs. The idea of having a designated area for touching other people was revolutionary and has evolved into other modern forms, such as the mistletoe, produce section, and night club. After Rubzonni and Baccamassagio left Spring Lake, the Ranch elected to keep “Rubzonni’s Zone” - as it was known at the time – due to its popularity among vacationers. After the death of Rubzonni in 1974 the Ranch filed for a state historic location distinction for “Rubzonni’s Zone” and subsequently shortened the name of the area to the Rub Zone, as it is known today.

Does God have a mancrush on himself?

New Ambrose Mannington chat today 1PM EST!

You may have noticed a few changes to the ranking in recent days. Due to rampant and senseless downvoting, we have removed negative vote totals and eliminated the ability to vote men down below the zero mark. The emphasis on distinguishing one man from another should lie in supporting (voting up) a man and not as much in actively downvoting all other men besides that man. While this certainly is the nature of the mancrush game it was starting to become a bit troublesome as nearly 70% of the men on the most illustrious man ranking in the history of the universe had negative vote totals. This only serves to undermine the integrity of the ranking. Being the sagacious man-wizards they are, those on the Mancrush Integrity Committee stepped in and initiated this new policy. So, to recap: Downvotes are still permitted; voting men below zero is not. Let's stay positive!

Ambrose Mannington stopped by to take some of your questions. Click on the "Ask Ambrose" tab to read what he has to say.

Ambrose has 1 2 3 4 5 senses working overtime. Look for his chat this evening!

Update due tomorrow. Get your questions to Ruddy Crushman at ruddy@mancrush.com by tonight's deadline, or forever hold your feet.

Check out the definitive Mancrush history posted under Features, as chronicled by our very own Ruddy Crushman. Also, some supersweet new product designs have been added in the store. You heard it here first.

Manstats!!!!

Most of the Recently Euthanized men find themselves as such as a result of poor entry quality. Blame their creator.

Please make an effort to use proper capitalization, punctuation, and spelling in the entries you submit. Our interns endure a rigorous six week boot camp in La Jolla, CA where they are trained to recognize these errors and euthanize the man on the spot, regardless of his merit. Please, do the men you submit some justice. We're all pulling for you. Thanks.

Good day all. Please try to make some semblance of an effort when submitting guys. Any entry lacking capitalization, punctuation and/or sufficient description will not make it onto the list. Help us help you. Thanks.

Due to overwhelming popular demand, a new "Man Men" department has been added. This should make it easier for people to find their favorite man men, both real and fictional. Enjoy.

Check out http://www.wfuv.org/ and click the link for the Vin Scelsa interview. So it goes.

When adding a guy please take the time to spell the guy's name right. Also, put some thought into the description and try and remember to capitalize. Many a good man has been euthanized for the aforementioned mistakes. It doesn't have to end that way. Thanks.

Hello all! We just made a few changes to the site. You can now outfit yourself in all the latest Mancrush.com fashion available at the Official Mancrush.com store! Other updates include an updated Public Forum policy permitting comments for non-registered users, as well as the addition of a "Manbuzz" link with all the latest mentions of Mancrush.com in the news. Onward and upward!

People now need to be signed in order to post comments. Hopefully this change will help reduce the number of spam-based non sequiturs.

Just wanted to assuage some concerns that have come to light, so to speak, in the past week. We want it to be known that "TPTB", as we have been referred to, are hard at work every day at improving this site. For those of you who have expressed concern about the comment posting system, rest assured, as we are in the process of developing a registered user only comment system. Additionally, we are looking at other user-only based features to mitigate the comment abuse that is occasionally seen on our respected message board. Thanks again to all those who have taken a vested interest in ensuring the integrity of the only ranked index of every man in the history of the universe. Your deeds shall not go unrequited. Good night, and Godspeed.

Hello! We just wanted to ask kindly that you please bear with us regarding your men and quotes pending approval. All of these have to reviewed, edited, and approved by our small army of interns. Currently their only compensation is a small ration of two (2) Ritz crackers every hour.

We have just instituted a couple of additions to the user profile feature. You now have the ability to add a personal statement for your profile, and can now also leave comments for others on their profiles!

At long last, the Mancrush user profile dream has become a reality. All users now have the ability to create their own profile to display their personal top ten to the world! Each profile will also list all men and quotes added by that user and in turn will rank all users based on their quantity of submissions. Please keep in mind that this feature is still in its early stages of development and will only improve as more features and interactivity are added in the coming months. You will also notice an "Add Your Quotes" feature, akin to the "Add Your Guy" feature. We are now able to accept quote submissions to enrich the Mancrush database. Additionally, we have also added a link to the Mancrush.com Facebook group that was created recently. It's quick and easy to click through to join and show your support. On a final note, we want to encourage you to continue to come to us with any comments and suggestions on how to improve the site. If there is anything you would like to see or think could be better, do not hesitate to email us. We are but stewards of this manpasture. It is all of our responsibility to contribute to the success of the only ranked index of male notoriety in the history of the universe. For now, we're off to fill out our top ten lists. As always, we look forward to your contributions. Godspeed.

New site design!

An unpaid intern has just been terminated.

Check it out! In response to the overwhelming recent support for certain men, a new 'Daily Show' category has been added. We left Steve Colbert in there, fair?

It's coming down to the wire between Yukon Cornelius and the Abominable Snow Monster. Since no one wants to see a tie, we've extended the voting deadline through midnight tonight to ensure we get a clear winner!

It's Clark Griswold!

Right now I just can't bring myself to give Ryan Seacrest this honor. Someone please add another guy to the list.

It's been an interesting week for mancrushes everywhere, and I feel fully confident in that statement. Votes were cast, yea or nay, but opinions were expressed none the less. While Steve Colbert and Jon Stewart may hold down the top spots many have challenged and are filling out the top ten most admirably. It has been especially entertaining to witness the ferocious debates erupting about Major Richard Winters, the Yankees, and of course, Muhammad and Jesus. But what is this site's purpose, if not to provide a forum for profound and indispensible discourse? Ponder that. In any case, we want to acknowledge those who have gone the extra mile in expressing themselves through their mancrush submissions. Special thanks to Roy Otis and his healthy 12 submissions, as well as Tom Pennella and his fantastic rendition of Little Caeser. It is only by all of your creativity that we are able to construct this database of man notoriety that is so desired by the public. Good night, and good luck.

Good evening. You may notice some changes to the site, particularly regarding the Add Your Guy feature. Before, men entered would go directly into the database; however, this posed a problem with the copious amount of entries that were either duplicates or men not of stature. Not wanting to compromise the integrity of the index, we have implemented a "Men Pending" man stable that will hold all recently added entries until they are approved by a moderator. Once viewed by a moderator, the entries will then be moved either into the Latest Additions and the Complete Ranking or, should they be rejected, they will be moved into the Recently Euthanized department. You will also notice a minor change in the voting structure, where by popular demand we have instituted a policy where no man may be higher than ten votes ahead of the man preceding him. This is to protect the integrity of the ranking and to respect the merits of each man worthy of being listed on the index. Please post all comments or concerns in the Public Forum or email to info@mancrush.com. Thanks for your support in this noble endeavor!

We have just made a few changes to the site. Details at 11.
