When I was a little boy - Barbara Eden. Used to argue with my friends over who would marry Jeannie. Then when I was a bit older it was Samantha Micelli, of course. Alyssa Milano wuz all dat! The first season or two of Friends had me on the Rachel bandwagon. Something about those schoolgirl outfits… ---

Audrey Horne? Now don’t get me wrong, I had (and probably still have) a huge crush on Sherilyn Fenn, but that Audrey chick was one whacked out girl. If you thread has allowed for “just a lick” flings, that’s one thing, but I’m not sure I’d want to actually date a girl who has all her emotional baggage packed in several large steamer trunks like that. Besides, isn’t she still trapped in that bank vault/possibly dead? ---

\*\* ARES \*\*. From Xena. The man is drop dead gorgeous, a good, and doesn’t take himself seriously. I cried when I found out Kevin Smith, the actor who played him, died. ---

Blair from _Facts of Life._ She had, how you say, ah yes, I remember… spank ass. Neve Campbell from whatever the fuck she did on TV. Great skin and misty eyes. The other night I dreamed she liked me and we were dancing to Sinatra songs. ---

Count me in for Chandler (I love witty men) and Dr Kovac can just mow my back yard in the hot Florida sun with his shirt off… ---

Rupert Giles, from _Buffy_. Jerry, from _ER_: I think he’d be great for snuggling. ---

**Michael Novotny** , from _Queer As Folk_ because he’s a sweet, caring and slightly insecure guy who is a lot stronger than he believes he is. And cute as hell. **Michael Garibaldi** , from _Babylon 5_. Sometimes I think I’d go for Captain John Sheridan instead, but Garibaldi has a rough-and-tumble quality to him. I like the edges. **Jason Ewing** , from _Dallas_… J.R’s long-lost cousin from Alaska, for those who are too young to remember, played by Dack Rambo. (Jenilee Harrison played Jason’s sister Jamie.) I liked his casual, laid-back attitude about the oil business and the way he yanked J.R.'s chain without seeming to care or notice. He had that nice guy/bad boy thing going which I love. And Dack was one of the handsomest men on TV I had or have ever seen. I was quite sad when he (Dack) died. ---

**Islandgirl** , I’m afraid that it looks like your social schedule will not fit in all the gentlemen you mentioned. Therefore, I will happily take Cole Turner off your hands. 😃 Giles is mine as well. Sorry **Brondicon**. On the female front… definitely Willow Rosenberg and Beverly Crusher. -BK ---
