Gerard Butler. The name causes many women to swoon. Men start shouting "THIS! IS! SPARTA!" Versatility in spades...he can play anyone, anything. From the testosterone-filled 300, to singing the lead in Phantom of the Opera, from pulp-adventure Tomb Raider 2, to chick flicks like "The Ugly Truth" and "P.S. I Love You," fantasy like Beowulf, kids movies like "How to Train Your Dragon" and "Nim's Island", this man is nothing but versatile. He can do everything, and he does it pretty well.

Everything except drink. It's old news, but I just read he placed himself in alcohol rehab.

HE'S FROM SCOTLAND.

It's every Scotsman's cultural duty to spend most of life utterly pissed. That and making fun of limeys like Ranelagh and Suineko are the points in common that kept Scotland and Ireland from fighting with each other for centuries. What type of Scotsman stops drinking?

The type that is smart enough to realize he has a problem?

+1 Aizle

Note: I'm an Irishman (bloodlines anyway) who stopped drinking entirely for almost 20 years and now drinks very infrequently.

No sense of humor.

Not something I find funny.

I'm glad he's taking care of things, seeking the help.

That is because you don't have a REAL sense of humor.
