Me too, **foolsguinea** , on both counts, but until now I thought I was alone.

Also, FWIW, if I were a guy, I would vote for Janeane Garafalo too.

There’s nothing secret about my drooling over Chow Yun Fat, so I didn’t put him here.

I’ve developed a tremendous crush on Bill Murray recently after seeing _Lost in Translation_. I find him extremely sexy in that role, for some reason.

It’s Ginger/Mary Anne, Jennifer/Bailey syndrome.  
I always thought Mary Lynn Rajskub of The Larry Sanders Show was a cutie, even though she was sort of the frumpy one on the show. (Coincidentally, Janeane was on the show too).

I’m suprised that this thread has gone so long without the mention of Alan Rickman. Well, I fess up. I dig him.

Me too! But that’s not that disturbing. What’s disturbing is that one of his swooniest roles IMHO is Professor Snape… :eek: 😉
