Finish the sentence: Al Roker makes me ...

Al Roker -- what a guy. So many words come to mind when you think of America's favorite weatherman.
 
He is always ready to offer viewers the most up-to-date weather news -- while offering a little entertainment at the same time. He's covered countless hurricanes and storms, but he has also been seen running around the plaza as the Gingerbread Man, shared a little jig with "Shrek's" Princess Fiona and even performed rhythmic gymnastics in Beijing. All in all, Al certainly brings plenty of joy and laughs to viewers across the country. So, I asked the TODAY family in this week's Getting to Know TODAY: Finish the sentence: Al Roker makes me ...

Today Show should have a 5th hour devoted just to Al Roker! He's funny, knows his food, weather, drinks, etc..With some cameo's from Amy Robach, it would work.
