11/08/10: How you doin'?



Albert Gore II here. How you doin’?

Look, I think this obsession Heather has with me is getting a little out of hand. Did you know that she’s taken to randomly quoting me around the office? This morning in a meeting she said (rather smartly) that “Airplane travel is nature's way of making you look like your passport photo” and even claimed that “during my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet“.

Girl’s got to get a life.

I don’t think this new “celebrity crush”, as she calls them, is going away anytime soon. So here are some facts about me, so you can feel included too:

  • I’ve won the Nobel Peace Prize, a Grammy and an Oscar

  • My full name is Albert Arnold Gore, Jr.

  • People call me “Al”

  • I was born March 31, 1948

  • I served as the 45th Vice President of the United States from 1993 to 2001 under President Bill Clinton

  • I "lost" to President Bush in the 2000 presidential elections

  • I graduated from Harvard; Tommy Lee Jones was my roommate

  • In early June, 2010, my wife Tipper and I, after 40 years of marriage, announced our intention to divorce
