Ever since muh wife watched the second season of The Mole with me, she has had a tremendously large crush on Anderson Cooper.
That's right... The very Anderson Cooper who stands in hurricanes and interviews the poorest and most destitute of folks on a daily/weekly basis.
Heck... he even took advantage of this and wrote a book of his reflections on these unique experiences. Book 4 was this very book. He writes about reporting from Sri Lanka after the Tsunami and from New Orleans after Hurrican Katrina... among other events that have shaken the world the past few years.
He intertwines his past and how his unique family history is relevant to the writings and how and why he covers so much human tragedy.
I felt the book was a bit on the extremely boring and self serving side, but what the heck... he is who he is.
If you have a crush on him... ummm... KD and TD... take your copy of Dispatches from the Edge and feel free to take it to your favorite mountain hut.

i read this last year - it was on the depressing side. it made him seem more untouchable than he did before. he's not had an easy life, but it's difficult to relate to a vanderbilt in general. at least he's doing something reasonably productive.
but i agree with the wife - he's cute.
