Psychohistory 
Loopy? Right, right. Too bad you love the site and it was a definite ego boost. I mean if you have even 5% of George Clooney’s looks, I say my brother is a definite babe.
We need a new photo of you, Adam. This one was taken years ago! 🙂
Sure thing, Eric. The problem is my professional photographer has a very busy schedule. I think he’s available for a new shoot sometime in 2009.
Adam, just send them a freeze frame of the video from the Valleywag post. Add a beard and there goes George Clooney.
In my opinion a lot of celebrity do-gooders are totally phony and engage in so called good deeds merely for positive publicity. I have to say that I don’t think that George is one of the phonies out there in the world of celbrity do-gooders. I admire what he is doing for the Haitian people. I wish more celebrities were as real as he is when it comes to helping out those less fortunate in the world. So kudos to George and his desire to make this world a better place.
