I'm afraid I spammed you all at the weekend about the blogathon over at

hooloovoo_42 set up to raise money for Tipitina's Foundation. (And you can still donate, btw, at their website.)

Anyway, to give her the occasional break, I contributed a few entries by way of a new fic and some picspams, and I thought that those of you who didn't get over to join us at the weekend might like a looksee at what I came up with.

When she said she wanted to include a post called “How Hot is Brad?” in the blogathon, I naturally offered her copious amounts of chocklit, cake and a small fortune in order to land the job!

So, it was really tough trawling through all those pics to find the ones that best demonstrate the hotness that is Bradley Whitford, but I think I managed it to my satisfaction!

The problem of course was keeping this post to a manageable size, and I was threatened with a head of cabbage and a two by four if I didn’t restrain myself at least a little bit. Looking at all that pretty has almost certanly affected my ability to count, but I was supposed to include 5 Brad, 5 Danny Tripp and 10 Josh Lyman (and I was limited to S1-4 of The West Wing because the blog was Sorkin-related, but there's one pic from S7 that was far too hot to leave out!)

I thought I'd start by trying to set fire to your computers (and brains!)
'Cause, really... guh.

This one turned up recently and while we all wondered what the hell he was doing... none of us really cared all that much. He's so flexible! ;)

*ahem*

Moving on. Let's take a moment (or several!) to contemplate the wonder that is Joshua Lyman.

This is my one pic that's NOT from the Sorkin days of The West Wing. But

hooloovoo_42 gave me a special dispensation to include it because it's just so damn hot!

One of

hooloovoo_42's faves...

I think this shot has a special place in the hearts of Josh fangirls everywhere.

The man can wear jeans like few other people. And he looks even better when he's on the move!

From The Crackpots and these Women, aka - The episode that spawned a thousand Josh fangirls - the moment at which we sat up and cried with one voice - "Oh my GOD - he's fit!!"

Joshua, Josh, Josh... adorable.

Eh. I got nothin'... *stares*

That cheeky smirk slays me every time - and don't get me started on the dimples...

Too late. :) Brad has one of the most spectacular smiles ever. Seriously, it should be registered as an illegal weapon.

See?

Josh in jammies... what's not to love?

and this shot turns me to mush

Um. Guh.

So after Josh, comes the equally lovely, although much blonder (!) Daniel Tripp -

and the way he worked those glasses took demented fangirling to a whole new dimension

He's hot when he's pissed, too...

See what I mean?

- and the smile's still lethal.

GDP.

I had to include this shot - I think I'd be doing a disservice to womankind if I didn't! This scene has been played over and over on the More4 trailer for next week's Studio 60 and has been burned into my brain. So I figured that if I had to suffer, then so should you! :)

Not sure whether this counts as a "Brad" pic or a "Danny" pic, but whatever it is, it's one of

coloneljack's faves - from a set of S60 promo shots.

I can't remember where this one is from... a Rock the Vote event, I think. Mmm... sweaty curls, smirk, dimples...

and finally...

Come on. You didn't really think I was going to leave that one out, did you?? :) The pics no self-respecting Brad-fangirl should be without. Stripping off for charity at a "Clothes off Our Back" auction. Stripping off for the good of womankind, I think I'd call it, but, you know, whatever...

*splashes happily in the gutter*
