Dirty Jobs - Who doesn't love them? Well, I'll tell you who does - Mike Rowe!
If you haven't heard of this Discovery Channel hit show, then check to see if you still have a pulse, and perhaps a TV, then go find a TV schedule and tune in!
Mike Rowe will try just about anything once, and he always tries his best to do a good job, but I think he holds the unofficial world record for failing at the most jobs.
One job he doesn't fail at is voice overs, that's narration to some of you, or just "the voice you don't see and don't really pay attention to (if they are good at what they do)." Have you seen the "Swap Your Ride" commercials for Ford? Listen to the voice. Have you watched Ghost Hunters on the Sci Fi Channel? That's him! Good ole Mike Rowe doing his "serious and somewhat urgent" voice at the beginning of the show. ("Tonight on Ghost Hunters... Jason and Grant investigate...." Couldn't have done it better, Mike!)
I'm not sure if this voice over bit is something new that has opened up for Mike Rowe or if I'm just starting to notice his voice all over the place, but it does pretty much guarantee him a nice income and future when he finally flubs up the last dirty job on the planet.
Head on over to the Dirty Jobs section of The Discovery Channel website and be sure to click on "Write your own caption." It's below the Vexcon box. See if you can find my caption!
Until next time, go forth and get yourself dirty ala Mike Rowe!
