Oh, Mr D'Arcy!

Imagine my (pleasant) surprise when I opened up the paper on Saturday morning and found this guy's package in my face.

Nick D'Arcy is an Australian swimmer bound for the Olympics, on the cover of Good Weekend, the supplement to the broadsheet Sydney Morning Herald. A few weeks short of the Games, any swimmer could have graced the cover of the newspaper's magazine, so why is Nick newsworthy now? And why are his broad shoulders, solid pecs and impressive bulge in Speedos on my mind today? Business as usual then.
