G is for Googly Eyes...

... that I make at the TV screen every time Anderson Cooper appears.

I saw the clip below of Anderson on Sesame Street at PerezHilton.com, and it immediately put me in a good mood. It's much too awesome to not pass along:



I love that this distinguished news anchor, who has traveled all over the world and has witnessed unspeakable horrors (if you ever want a good cry, read his book, Dispatches from the Edge), can not only still find the time to keep up with (and rip on) reality TV, but is also humble enough to climb into a trash can for the sake of educating the kiddies of the world.

Sigh.

Wasn't that the McCain/Palin interview at the RNC?

Anderson is such a dreamboat ;)

He is the coolest. I saw him recently on the Daily Show. He did a little skit with the "News Team". It's great to see someone in his profession not take themselves seriously.... and those EYES!

Yes, I saw that Daily Show skit as well, it was hilarious. AC is about as close to perfection as it gets.

Double sigh.

hey E - You know that AC is gay right? but you just still think he is dreamy...

He was 2nd on "The Most Powerful Gay Men and Women in America." in Out Mag

I, too, love Anderson Cooper - I don't understand how dy doesn't get it. Did you see Kathy Griffin doing the red carpet with Anderson? She kept calling him "Andy Cooper". Anyway, it was funny.

I put googly eyes on my plants...because you can't trust someone without looking them in the eye.
