He reminds me more of Jim Cantore, but with hair.

“Hey, baby, there’s a storm warning in the bedroom tonight...”

"Perlin is a nice guy," says Couric's friend. "He's extremely smart. He's honest. He doesn't play games. He's sweet. Normal. Really grounded. It's a drama-free relationship."

The odds are 10-1 he's GAY!

Frankly, I don’t care what people do in their personal life...not like Katie is running for office any way.

I turned 48 today. My husband turned 68 in February. We rarely notice the difference.

I have a six-year old granddaughter with whom I have watched that movie at least a dozen times. I still admire the works of Jim Henson and his crew.

Could have been worse....she's never heard of "Pewee's Playhouse" so we'll never have to be watching that.

That pic must be his puzzling look after Katie asked him if he likes “The Beatles”.

Brooks Perlin - son of financier Sanford Perlin of Darien, Conn. - has been running around with the perky anchorwoman-turned-cougar for several months, according to a source.

“These are two private people and I respect that,” said Sanford Perlin yesterday, when reached at his office at Kleos Capital Management.

His mother, Anne Perlin, 68, didn’t want to comment on her son’s new 50-year-old girlfriend.

“I don’t believe in any meddling in people’s personal lives,” she said.

When pressed, she added, “It’s a lovely story and I hope we don’t ruin it.”

Odds are Couric the cougar - a lighthearted term for older women who devour younger men - hopes the same.

She’s often spotted arriving in a limo at his tony East Side apartment building, close to Sutton Place.

“She arrives at, like, 11,” said one resident. “She’s always in a suit and heels.”

The female resident also said that the perennially khaki-clad Perlin has a roving eye.

“He’s always checking out every girl who walks by,” she complained.

Last July, Perlin competed in the Greenwich Cup triathlon - where he swam, ran, and cycled - and finished in an impressive one hour, 19 minutes and 16 seconds.

He also has a plummy academic background. He was known as “Woody” at the Hotchkiss School, a 100-year-old Connecticut boarding school, and he grew up in plush Darien.

As a kid, he hammed it up in a performance of “The Music Man” at the Darien Arts Center, where his mother is on the board of directors.

Perlin, 33 - whom Couric, 50, snagged at a Louis Licari salon event last fall and has been running around with since - seems to have a hard time settling down in a career as well as having a “pattern” of dating older women, a source says.

Not only has Perlin worked for three Connecticut-based hedge funds in the last five years, he hasn’t had a full-time job since September, a source told the Post’s Marianne Garvey.

He last worked at Keel Capital Management in Stamford but left to start a Queens-based company that creates environmentally friendly, green-building products. Before that, the spin-class-obsessed triathlete worked for a short time at both Pequot Capital Management and Grange Park, a hedge fund that’s now closed.

“If someone isn’t working out at three hedge funds, chances are it’s not the place you’re working at,” said the source. “Brooks is a free spirit, but he’s a 33-year-old going on 18. And he hasn’t taken life seriously so far - he’s trying to figure himself out.”

According to the source, Perlin’s lack of focus stems from a “horrible accident that happened to an immediate family member” in his past. “It happened sometime before he was 10 years old, it was just an accident. After that, he was sheltered and he was very protected,” said our source, who adds Perlin “has a pattern of dating women much older and has a very complicated relationship with his mother over what happened.”

Meanwhile, we’ve learned that his mom, Anne Perlin, was busted last November for fourth-degree larceny. She was found guilty and fined $200 in a Stamford court.
