A few days ago after calling Anderson Cooper a hottie, I followed up by poking a little fun at how stiff and unfunny he was when we met. Now I feel a wee bit shallow because lookie look there he is in the Middle East reporting on the crisis by putting himself in harm's way.
So okay, in all sincerity it's pretty admirable that we have reporters out there risking their lives to bring us our tv news while we sit all comfy on our sofas. But...if you've been watching AC 360 the past few days, you have to admit there's something sexy about Coop in that bullet proof vest, donning that G.I. Joe helmet when the sirens go off. (I'll be sure to post a recent Anderson as war reporter pic when I get one.) Hopefully this crisis will come to a good conclusion as soon as possible. But when it does end, we need to plead with CNN (or Hasbro) to issue the Anderson Cooper War Correspondent Doll, complete with fatigues, bullet proof vest, helmet, and gay action kung-fu grip.

I love him! I remember when he was covering Hurricane Katrina and he was walking around with this old lady surrounded by the rubble from her home and she was picking up family pics and showing them to AC and he CRIED. It was very touching. I would totally buy his doll. :)
