And it wasn’t because I was checking out her pendant… which was beautiful, by the way.
No, this morning, Ms. Meade’s pendant had to take a backseat to Bob Van Dillon’s haircut. I was walking by the TV, caught a glimpse of gorgeous Bob in that short, spiky military cut and literally stopped whatever I was doing. He might have been talking about the weather. I don’t know.
Against that blue shirt, his red tie was busy … we all know how blue and red look together on TV! It was like Japanese animation… (I could have had a seizure.) Then again, the fact that he was sans coat, which I prefer, made up for it.
The hot weatherman (and the occasionally hot anchorman) trend is distracting in a way that makes me understand how my husband can listen to Robin for an entire 30 minutes and not comprehend ONE news story. CNN knows this, and ensures our viewership as we all swear to ourselves we will PAY ATTENTION the next time that certain story (or forecast) comes around.
The Weather Channel depends on Jim Cantore to bring in all their female viewers… (if there is another hot weatherman on there, I missed him. Someone clue me in!) According to the internet searches I track with this blog, every day at least two people do a search for a shirtless Jim Cantore. It might be wise for The Weather Channel to just oil him up, clip that mic to his nipple and watch the ratings soar.
I mean, even though he is fully dressed, I have seen Bob’s forecast three times so far this morning, but I still don’t know if it’s gonna rain. All I know is if it does, his hair will still look damn good.
