This year's Sexiest Man Alive goes to Matthew McConaughey. I couldn't have chosen better myself. It's a great article about him, and he really is that consummate guy that all the men want to hang out with and all the women want to be with.

Some of my favorite quotes from the article:

Valentine's Day or any day? "For me, one of the toughest things about Valentine's Day is that it gets geared up as the day to profess your love. See, T-E-S-T – that's a bad word that doesn't go with L-O-V-E. Now, if I find a gift that goes, 'Ooh, that's her' or 'That's my woman,' I'm going to get it and I'm not going to hold onto it. I don't know how to save it. I'll give it to you on Tuesday. The tough thing is that some of my best gifts can be Tuesday in November and then come Christmas and birthday I'm going, 'I've painted myself in a corner! How am I going to get out? I can't top the last one that I gave "just because"!'"

My father always taught me . . . "Don't say 'can't' and don't lie. Always say 'Yes ma'am' and 'No sir.' My first whupping was when I told my brother Pat I hated him. My dad said, 'You never hate anything.' I haven't hated anything since."

My mother [Kay, 73] always told me . . . "If you woke up and you were in a bad mood, she'd make breakfast and say, 'You come in here when you're ready to see the rose in the vase and not the dust on the table.' "

When I look in the mirror, I see . . . "my mom and my dad. I'll see lines and say, 'Those are good smilers, man.' But most of the time, I see my best friend."

Upon hearing that you'd been selected as the Sexiest Man Alive ... "I like the 'Alive' part. Now I've made it. Wait until you see the roles I could take after this. You're going to see my gut hanging over, plus 22 [lbs]. It'll be a whole new kind of sexy!"
