If you watched MTV in the ’90s, you saw Dave Holmes hosting various shows and events and suchlike. But since then, he has continued getting more and more awesome. Holmes has one of the most consistently entertaining feeds on all of Twitter — the likes of which should be the envy of every celebrity who uses the service (as my esteemed former colleague Linda Holmes (no relation) observed a few months ag0). He’s a frequent (brilliant) guest on Never Not Funny. He’s an engaging blogger. And he’s a philanthropist! As if just running the New York Marathon didn’t make him enough of a hero (it does), Holmes wrote today that he’s raising money for The Aubrey Fund for Pediatric Cancer Research at the Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
Why should you support Holmes, other than the obvious reasons (such as, you like children, and hate cancer)? I’ll let him tell you. But…you could end up with a song written about you, which is cool.

Way to manipulate my giant Dave Holmes crush for the benefit of charity, Tara, damn.
