OH MY GOD she is hot! \*\* She’s an attractive girl, but I don’t understand the immense following. And what is with that smirk that isn’t quite a smile she always has on her face? [note it on the entry page mentioned above] It looks like she forgot to wear panties and just sat in a bowl warm pudding. ---

One from me… By now everyone knows about my Jeff Hardy crush, which I’m not embarassed about. However, there is one wrestler I rarely admit to having a crush on, even though I named my kitten after him. [sub]I’ll admit I didn’t think of it first, but my friend suggested it.[/sub] **Spike Dudley** [This is his wrestling look](http://www.angelfire.com/sd/thegiantkiller/images/spikepics/spikecutesmile.jpg) [More normal here](http://www.angelfire.com/sd/thegiantkiller/images/spikepics/spikebeautifuleyes.jpg) There’s just something about this little guy who beats up the bigger guys. Plus, he’s got the vague Kurt Cobain look to him. ---

Almost all of my crushes are embarrassing. There’s Florian Schneider from Kraftwerk. I had a crush on Abraham Lincoln when I was in 4th grade. Oh god, I had a crush on Yahoo Serious…anyone remember him? Young Einstein? My all-time weirdest crush was defintely Robert Wadlow. He was in the Guiness Book of World Records as the world’s tallest man ever- about 8’11.5". He died when he was 22 years old due to some infection in his foot, but he sure was a hottie. At least I thought so. That was strange, but at least I didn’t have a crush on the heaviest twins, you know, those guys with the checkered pants riding motorcycles. ---

I’ve had a crush on Alan Alda ever since the first time I saw M_A_S\*H. I think I modeled my ideal man after his Hawkeye character. Even now my heart melts when I see him smile. Even now that he is 65 years old(almost 40 years older than me)! ---

Well, I’ve just realized recently that I definitely, for absolutely INCOMPREHENSIBLE reasons, have a full blown, giggly, blushing teenager crush on: Oscar Acosta, the Cubs pitching coach. WHY…WHY WHY??? I also have a big crush on Lou Ferigno. I want to cuddle him. jarbaby ---
