Maybe here is why he's surprised...

This article reports that women's memory waaaay improves if info is given to us via a low male voice.

So maybe this explains why I can quote whole paragraphs of Alex 's dialogues from various of his projects, but cannot remember what my kids need for their science projects unless they give me a written list.

Here is a link: http://jezebel.com/5839907/women-will-r ... anly-voice

And here is a sample:
A new study points to a surprising way to get ladies to remember things: just talk about them in a
low voice. But it has to be a man's voice.

In a recently released study, psychologists recorded men and women saying the names of a variety of different objects (example: "fish"), then manipulated their voices to sound lower or higher. Then they recruited a group of straight women to look at pictures of the objects while listening to the voices. Finally, they performed a recognition test in which the women were shown two similar versions of an object and asked to indicate which version they'd seen previously (ie. a brown fish or a more colorful fish). It turned out that women were significantly better at doing this if they heard artificially lowered male voices naming the objects. Lowering the pitch of female voices had no effect, though. The women also reported that they found the lowered male voices more attractive.

I didn't think it was possible for Alex to be MORE attractive... :cloud9:

And in honor of the new thread, I MUST repost that lovely crop that Red did for us:

Interesting to compare Hiatt with McG.
Especially season 2 McG who seems to be a tad more scruffy, at least to start. :hearts:

Both of em... :melts: :melts: :melts:

His face has changed so much since The Shield days...the planes and angles of his face have become sharper and more mature.

But he's still gorgeous. :melts: :melts: :melts:

And this one's just because he looks happy here...and that makes me happy...and it makes me happy to post this...
