Wooderson’s Women: Allison Stokke

This picture of high school pole vaulter Allison Stokke has been making the rounds the last couple of weeks and the internet has not seemed to lost its interest, despite the fact that additional images of Ms. Stokke show her to be a healthy young woman who looks only just her age. (While I refuse to be so creepy as to look up her birthdate, I’m told she is a Junior, so let’s presume under 18.) Fan clubs have formed and even splintered. A MySpace page exists for Allison Stoke fans. I can’t say she will blossom into a full-fledged internet phenom—there’s just not much more to her than the fact that she’s a fit young girl who had her picture taken at an especially flattering angle.

But her favorite movie is The Two Towers. How’s that feel, nerds? That pain is called irrational heartache.
