I am having an affair. With a food nerd. We see each other everyday. At least I see him.
I'm a completely in love with Alton Brown.
Do you watch the Food Network? Have you seen his new show?
I like Feasting on Asphalt and I love Iron Chef: America, but really? Alton is my lovah because of Good Eats.
He tells me the science of how food works. It's super sexy.
Okay. I fessed up. Who's your nerd lovah?
I looove Alton Brown! Especially for Good Eats! I love Mike Rowe from the Discovery Channel's Dirty Jobs. His voice is so damn sexy. He probably doesn't qualify as a nerd but he does some disgusting things on that show!

Damn. I was just saying someone was fantastically nerdy the other day, and now I can't think of who it is. My old standby nerd crush is Ben Folds, because I'm a sucker for a guy who can sing. If I remember my new nerd crush, I'll totally post it. But I wouldn't count on it. My brain's not working to incredibly well today.

Um, my Lovah Nerd is an actual nerd....Steve Jobs. The world would be a better (or at least more streamlined and prettier) place if everyone owned a Mac.

Ok so my nerd lovah is Anderson Cooper of Anderson Cooper 360. I seriously love news and I just cant get enough of him telling it to me. When he was in harms way in Iraq a few weeks back I was seriously scared for him!!!
Of course my non celebrity nerd lovah has to be Sam from 2nd grade, he didn't bend his arms or legs when he ran!!!! So sexy!

omigod! I absolutely adore AB!! My husband and I watch good eats every night and often quote it while we are cooking. I love a show that is interesting, entertaining and educational all in one. They just had a behind the scenes episode of good eats and I didn't realize what a big production it is. He makes it look so simple and effortless.

Just so happens to be Mr Brown :)

I HEART AB. I thought the behind-the-scenes episode was pretty awesome, too. Especially learnig that W was his chiropractor. Who knew? I want the little flip-top lidded jar he keeps his kosher salt in.

Alton too. I don't really care for Iron Chef America, and I haven't seen his new show, but I do love me some Good Eats.

I kind of feel left out. I don't really have a nerd lovah.

I don't watch cable, since I don't have it. But my secret nerd lovah would have to have be Wilson from House. He is dreamy. Though a cheater. But what can you do?

I love Alton Brown, but I really dig the guy from History Channel's Digging for the Truth - Josh Bernstein! Wow...he's hot!
