Making RidicuList History

I got into this segment of The RidicuList about half way into it, Anderson was reading from a book, and I thought I had clicked the wrong channel and had tuned into PBS. "Oh, Anderson is reading," I thought, "this must be 'Masterpiece Theater' and Anderson is reading from James Joyce's 'Ulysses.'" It took me a few seconds to realize that Anderson was reading from Snooki's book, "A Shore Thing." It must have been the "...tonight, she aimed her gyrating hips straight at salami boy..." that brought me back to CNN. I settled in my chair and enjoyed the rest of the reading.

Funny guy, Anderson, putting himself in The RidicuList for reading such a treasure from New Jersey. And to admit that he can't wait for the second book, "Gorilla Beach"... I certainly hope he places himself in The RidicuList again the day the new book comes out in the store(s); that's what a well educated and well mannered person would do.

The RidicuList: Anderson Cooper

Editor's note: Anderson Cooper explains why he's added himself - yes, himself - to AC360's RidicuList.
