The reaction from CW’s first female FOC has been wild! We had no idea the announcement would arouse such praise and applause from ladies across the country. A pat on our collective back is in order, for breaking down yet another wall in the fight for the progress of women. [Well, it's really the first wall for us, but whatever.] Suzy J. from Bismarck, North Dakota, writes: “This seems long overdue!”
Ella P. from The Bronx writes: “Where my ladies at?!! G-g-g-give it all you got, Mer!”
And Ricky Tinkle’s sis Julie provides us with the requisite: “You go, girl!”
We’re feeling here in the CW offices the sort of pride and satisfaction that great feminists of the past must have felt. Mary Wollstonecraft. Susan B. Anthony. Betty Friedan. Gloria Steinem. Chris Weekly.
Unfortunately, Mer was busy booking Virginia Beach street trash yesterday when we posted the announcement that she had been named February’s Friend of Chris, and didn’t learn of the news until this morning. She contacted us this afternoon to convey her joy, gratitude and general feelings of satisfaction and fulfillment:
"Wow. I am just speechless. It is a true honor to share so many similarities with the big guy. I am constantly searching for new ones. Anytime I discover something new, my first thought is to share it with Chris with the hopes that he likes it, too. The similarities are uncanny, really. First there's food. Pasta, mashed potatoes, and especially bread, to name a few. Bread is an important one. Soft on the inside, crunchy on the outside. We should really write a book together: 'Breads Have I Loved.' Sure to be a bestseller!"
Just let us know the release date, Mer. You can count on the CW readership to take that one right to the top. Where it deserves to be. For now, relax, go grab a baguette from Farm Fresh and think of Chris while you enjoy its chewy goodness.
Chris Weekly: A true paladin of women’s progress.

Rube. While we are all celebrating the big guy's birthday all week, we know that the actual date is this Saturday. Any word on where the Chris will be spotted?
Also, being that his birthday is 2 days after Hallmark's Valentines day, is he off the hook for cupid's day? What's the expectation?
