Understand and echo the sentiment – I think that’s what it was – with regard to the elegant and dignified Aung San Suu. And great, great bones but would you really want to jump ‘em every five minutes. Hmm, maybe. May God rest her husband.

Anyway, mine’s a strange one. No beauty by any stretch and had a few difficult time’s but I’d just love to check out the chemistry - an awful, awful lot. Carrie Fisher since she turned 30 (no, it’s not a Princess Leia thing and there is no way in hell she’s an actress). Not elegant, not a beauty but I love the way her mind works. Just hits the spot, a lot.

Be careful, or all the _Star Wars_ fans here might come after you with their plastic lightsabers…

I had a bit of a lech for Bill Maher of _Politically Incorrect_ – until I heard him make a really bone-headed Luddite remark on his show… I just can’t lust after a person I don’t respect.

After watching _Dogma_ and _Clerks_ recently, I discovered that I’m attracted to Kevin Smith (Silent Bob). What can I say – I’d jump him in a minute.

Once David Letterman started to say Martha Stewart was hot, I started to see it. She looks a lot like my ex, so maybe she’s my type. (I prefer to say my type is a hotter dresser, but I’m really a sucker for a good cook and a well-relaxed hostess. When I’m introduced to one at a party, I go home planning about how to invite her back right away.)

CBC journalists… both my mom and I seem to have a thing for them. I have dibbs on Eric Sorensen and Michael MacAuliffe. She’s got a crush on Ian Hanomansing. And of course, she married my father 🙂

**Warning: New York-specific joke approaching.**

Well, there is a certain someone. She’s been the person to wake me in the morning for the past 12-plus years. She shares my joy in happy news, and has compassion and empathy when things are bad. She makes sure I never forget my umbrella, and even has a knack for predicting whether I’m going to have a good day at work. If that combo isn’t sexy, I don’t know what it.

Yes, to me the sexiest person not a model or actress is [Judy DeAngelis](http://www.1010wins.com/bios/deangelis.html).

Here’s my list of non-actors or models I would like to jump.  
(list)  
(_)David Bloom, White House reporter and weekend news anchor for NBC News. He’s intelligent, well-spoken, and H-O-T.  
(_)Matt Drudge. He’s too conservative politically and a closet queen, to boot, but I find him irrestibly sexy.  
(_)Esprix. I found his posts intelligent and engaging, and then I saw his picture. Woo-hoo!  
(_)Bill Nye, Science Guy. He’s not the physical type I usually go after, but he is such a hoot to watch I think we’d have a lot of fun just talking before and after sex.  
(\*)Henry Rollins. He’s a brilliant conversationalist, if a bit self-absorbed, he’s intense and brooding(big turnons for me) and, Hail Mary, what a body!

Female bassists rule. There’s just something about them, especially [Sean Yseault](http://bibinsa5.insa-tlse.fr/~rzr/zombie/pictures/seandng.jpg) and [Melissa Auf der Maur](http://www.gurlpages.com/music/bassgrrl/melissa.html).

My, oh, my.

He is, actually. His name is John Bloom. He does the ‘God Stuff’ segments on ‘The Daily Show’ and played and incompetant pit boss in 'Casino".

Well, I guess I should have said “He’s not _just_ an actor.” I think he’s more of a comedian/parodist (did I just make up that word?) Anyway, I knew of his other identity, but it’s the Joe Bob Briggs one I find sexy, not the other one, for whatever weird reason. He once did a whole episode of Monstervision in the cutest pair of men’s print pajamas . . . Print-Pajama-Fu!

Pardon me while I blush myself into a nice tan… :o

I will also note that my unrequited love **matt** did not mention me in his list… {SIGH}

As for me? Well, do porn stars count as actors? 😃

Esprix: I can’t believe it. I was stuck in famous-people mode. I’m so sorry.

Hey… If I’m your unrequited love, and you’re my unrequited love, why don’t we get together sometime and requite each other? 🙂

He does act now, but

**Harry Connick, Jr.**

started out as a musician. What a voice! Love that Louisiana-drawl.

Can there ever be another \*\* Wally or Coldfire??\*\*

They are funny, quick with their wit and sharp as tacks and that’s a sexy combo if there ever was one!

Both are sexy too. 🙂 I seem to have a thing for older men, and as older men goes, Wally is quite the hottie - right up there with Richard Gere and Harrison Ford if you ask me!

AND he gave me this awesome sig line…
