I really like Mike's adverts for Shark Week. He's like the old fisherman from Jaws, except funny.

HAH! I finally saw one last night during his "Dirtiest Jobs" review. The one where he's showing off his shark bite scars: "A tiger shark got me here, nearly lost my arm", etc. And then he shows a pink happy face and says "This is a henna tattoo. I got it at a carnival. It...won't come off."

I'm giggling girlishly just thinking about it.

Oh, and last night's episode featured Mike in his house, and in the hot tub at one point. *blushes*

Mike? Hot tub??! Squee!

Plus, he's still single. Sigh.

Yo, I'm ready to rumble. ;D

I didn't want to get anyone stirred up by mentioning the episode in MR's apartment. It wasn't just the hot tub. It was his bathroom, him doing dishes, doing laundry, throwing away his garbage, sitting on his couch. I think the episode was called "The Super, Worst, Dirtiest Jobs Ever". He considered (from 70+ different "jobs"), and picked sewage backed up into basement, septic tank cleaner, fish heads, and the "dirtiest" of all: Charcoal Factory.

But, he did take a shower at the end of the Volcanic Ash Mud Bath episode. Plus, I think he was nekkid getting into that mud bath. He also was trying to hitchhike at the end of that one; bare-chested and shoeless, with only a towel on, but covered in mud. Outside, trying to get a ride. He was a real mess, but still yummy.

Anybody see the "Geoduck" episode last night? God, what a riot! The looks he kept giving those things as they bent over in his hands. I love that guy!

I believe I win the "I Get Mike Rowe" sweepstakes, since I've been crushing on him since he was on QVC!!!

ETA: I had a luscious dream about him after the geoduck epi, and I'm not kidding.

[topher]

He was on QVC? Was he a host?

[Deleted]

According to his bio on the Discovery Channel website, he was a host/hawker, as well as an opera singer.

And, he's single.
