I love Mike Rowe. He's hot looking and has a GREAT voice. I could listen to him read the phone book. As my granny used to say, "He can park his shoes under my bed any night." :D:

Well, I certainly wouldn't go that far, but I do like the guy. And guess what -- Rowe is a barbershopper, or at least used to be. And he gives a lot of credit to the late Freddie King, his high school music teacher and director of the Chorus of the Chesapeake, for the trajectory of his career:

[INDENT]When strangers would ask me how I wound up with my name in the title of a hit show, I would never tell them the whole truth. That level of disclosure would require a mention of SPEBSQSA, and I’ve learned that long and unpronounceable acronyms make people anxious. -- Mike Rowe[/INDENT]

The full story is here: Mike Rowe Interview, and it's a very entertaining read.
