Newsmen embrace the gray

One of many double standards between the sexes is that men are more
or less allowed to have their hair turn gray, even at a youngish age. I guess it all comes down to "rugged
sophistication" or something. The New York Daily News claims that "sexy gray" has made a
comeback, at least on TV news, and they blame sexy silverhead Anderson Cooper. I guess you have to admit, he is kind of
dreamy. I imagine Anderson and I floating on a boat down a moonlit river, he plucks a banjo and serenades me as I relax
under a parasol while the crickets sing harmony. Wait, what was I talking about? Right, gray hair. It seems more and
more newsmen, like NBC's Dan Abrams, have ditched the die and are letting their freaky gray flag fly. I guess if you
got it, you flaunt it. Just ask Jon Stewart.
