I saw Zombieland yesterday afternoon in the first day of my birthday week celebration. I haven’t been to a movie in awhile and it was groovy.

Because of the spoiler cameo, I’m not going to post or review it other than to say, it had some really gross out deaths and a sweet soul about it.

My crush on Woody Harrelson continues into it’s second decade. The Woody crush created a conversation between Squirrel Queen and I about dudes who aren’t traditionally handsome but who have IT.

Now, I’m a huge fan of IT. The IT factor continually outweighs pretty much anything. Don’t get me wrong, pretty is nice, but if you have IT, well then I think that makes you something special.

Our list of people with IT.

1. Anderson Cooper – We agree, he’s got some Nerd It going on. Have you ever heard his heehaw snort of a laugh? A lot different than his anchor persona on CNN. He’s the guy I want to have a Cosmopolitan with. We’d have to ask Kathy Griffin to come hang out too because she would make him do the heehaw laugh.

2. Kelsey Grammar’s voice – It’s the voice, campers. I mean, come on, who doesn’t love listening to Sideshow Bob. The pipes are fabulous.

3. Eddie George – Beautiful with a bit something extra. Bald, imposing, lovely, dangerous, sweet. (Probably shouldn’t be on the list but we decided to put him here because the IT went off the chart. And we talked about him for some reason last night. I miss Eddie.) I met him once and he was at least 19 feet taller than me. Rrrowr.

4. Kevin McKidd – The first time I saw Dog Soldiers I found myself drowning in that lovely Scottish Brogue. (Christopher Eccleston also goes in this category.) They are both rugged big dudes, not traditionally handsome but have something that makes our toes curl. The IT is there and it ain’t going away. And, let’s also look at McKidd’s werewolf chronicles and Dr. FRACKING Who. I mean, come on, that’s good stuff.) I actually started watching Grey’s Anatomy just to watch McKidd. (Hulu makes life better. If only I didn’t have to watch Izzie and Meredith. McKidd needs his own show. No seriously. Journeyman died young because of the writer’s strike.)

Oh, there are more. But as we were compiling our list, we tended to roam off into other conversations. I think the thing we concluded is that IT is something we dig immensely. Woody Harrelson inspired us on our joy of the IT factor, but then we saw something bright and shiny, talked about David Letterman and cursed Johnathon Crompton.

This, of course, was the first day of birthday celebration week, in where this self-created festival began yesterday out and about in Hoots. Today is Day Two. We are doing family stuff, lying about like slugs and listening to Edith Massey’s greatest hits.

Oh and see this mashup of Divine, Edith Massey and Tyra Banks at her place.
