Esprix said in GD: > [@](#): > > Even I’ll admit there’s a woman out there for me… but she’s Sophia Loren, so it’s not going to do me much good. (Alright, I’d consider doing Jeri Ryan, but only if she wore her Seven of Nine prosthetics!) I thought this was a remarkable admission from a guy who’s generally reacted to the idea of sex with women with, “Ewww!” So in the Esprix spirit, I would put on my list: [ul][li]Wilson Jermaine Heredia (who played Angel in _Rent_)[/li][li]Noah Wylie (from TV’s ER)[/ul][/li] Who wouldja do, celebrity-wise, if you played for the other team (that is, the team other than the one you play for now)? - Rick ---

Noah Wylie??? You’re a damn fruit, Bricker! * * * Yet to be reconciled with the reality of the dark for a moment, I go on wandering from dream to dream. ---

Let’s see: Sharon Stone…she’s just gorgeous Courtney Cox Arquette (my husband would _love_ that) Kate Winslet (he’d love that even more :)) There’s probably more that I’d think of if I did swing the other way. For now, that’s it. ---

Yeah, well… I figured I was cheating the spirit of the question with Heredia, who after all played a really good looking woman in the show… so I had to come up with someone really male, and Wylie was my choice. C’mon – he’s kinda cute, don’t you think? ::snicker:: - Rick ---

Already did this thread a few months ago . . . I think it was called “Only Bisexuals Can’t Play.” Now that the search function is up again . . . By the way, my answer was Ute Lemper. ---

Hey, Bricker, Wilson goosed me when I did the Rent line, and my sister lived with Noah’s cousin in LA. He’d drop by for coffee every Sunday. I have scrubs signed by him. Doncha wish you were me? While it’s not original, Angelina Jolie. ---

Oh, dear, I think I’ve passed into “regular poster” - someone posted a thread based on something I said. 🙂 And I wouldn’t “have sex” with Ms. Loren - we’d make SWEET LOVE down by the fire! (And, well, Jeri can just assimilate me any time!) All this reminds me of a quote by comedian Bob Smith: > [@](#): > > Alright, I admit it - I experimented with heterosexuality in college. I slept with a straight guy. But I was _really_ drunk!

Lots of new posters here since last July! (To include me, I might add…) 🙂 To the “If you’re going to switch, _switch_” comment… hey, best I can do. I could never even begin to picture a romantic interlude between me and, say, Tom Selleck. Sorry. Androgynous men are as far as I can possibly even speculate. - Rick ---

Count me as another against the whole idea of Pamela Lee…blech, no matter which angle I’m coming from. If I had to pick someone, it would be the chick who played the wife in The Unbearable Lightness of Being…Juliet Binoche? Is that her name? ---

Pamela? Oh, huh-uh. Icky. I’d go more for Angelina Jolie, Gillian Anderson or Meg Ryan. Personalities to go with the looks… * * * “I hate it when they ain’t been shaved.” -ND ---

Ok, maybe not pamela Lee herself, but that type…ultra feminine. Not manly like Ellen or anything. Ewww. Esprix, might I say that I have very much enjoyed seeing you around, welcome to the board! And yes I do have a brother, but he is very married. Sorry. I DO have a gay cousin though, (tried to set him up with angkins once!) but alas, he is a priest now. ---
