07/20/2007: "Respectable Eye Candy"
)
One of our commenters recently bemoaned the lack of "class" in our Eye Candy recently, and, while the target of his ire wasn't our traditional Weekend Eye Candy, it's still a point well-taken.
When you think about it, America is a country of tradition. We like things to stay the way they are, and we celebrate those things that remain constant. We relish patriotism, even as we disagree with our government's policies. We revel in the beach and surfing culture, even as the UV rays are causing cancer and the Beach Boys are dying of old age. And, above all, we revere motherhood - even as overpopulation threatens our very existance.
You're on your own for the patriotism, but I've got you covered for the beach and motherhood. For a while, everyone was wild about Brooke Burke, especially when she was party-hopping for her E! cable travel show. For a few years, though, she's been out of the spotlight - not because of changes in our tastes, but rather changes in her looks. Brooke took time off from her career to become a mommy. Already the mother of two from an earlier marriage, Brooke gave birth in January to a daughter named "Heaven Rain". As you can see from this recent shot of her enjoying a day at the beach with new husband David Charvet (a graduate of "Baywatch" - so I guess he'd be at home on the beach!), it would appear that motherhood does a body good!
I said earlier that you were on your own for the patriotism thing, but if you don't feel like saluting once you check out Brooke, you probably ought to check your blood pressure - you're more than likely dead ...
