Alton is a Nerd

I had left Food Network on the TV and I happened to walk past and Alton had rolled up his shirt to show a bee tattoo which he then started to draw on with a marker explaining how a bee makes honey. All I could think was 'nerd!'. But it was cute.

He's made a lot of good money being a smart, funny, cute nerd like that.

Alton's nerdyness and geekery is what appealed to me with Good Eats

Haven't you ever noticed, it is the nerds who seem to make the most of their lives.

Alton Brown tought me most of what I know about cooking. I think the way he uses visual aids to help viewers understand is awesome. I have done the same thing with others to explain what I'm telling them.

I agree, he really explains things in a way anyone can understand.
