I don’t think TV “journalists” should be able to compete. They’re basically hired for their looks. They’re at least as much a part of the entertainment industry as athletes are. ---

President Clinton, just _sans_ cigar. I’d like to cut a deal with my husband that if I got a chance I could make out with Big Bad Bill. But, because my husband is already jealous of [Rhode Island State Attorney General Patrick Lynch](http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://patricklynchsucks.com/patrick_lynch.jpg&imgrefurl=http://patricklynchsucks.com/&h=270&w=198&sz=13&hl=en&start=2&tbnid=_BJf14nPElU5XM:&tbnh=113&tbnw=83&prev=/images%3Fq%3DPatrick%2BLynch%26gbv%3D2%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG) I feel it’s best not to bring it up. ---

[QUOTE=KneadToKnow] What, y’all don’t each have The List? [/QUOTE] GF and I did The Lists last night. She gets Sidney Poitier, I get Gwenyth Paltrow. I think I get the better end of that deal. I can’t think of any non-celebrities I could link to. If she’s got a link, she’s famous on some level. My own crushes include a coworker, a former coworker, a couple of stangers I see on the train, and the woman that bought my painting last week. I don’t think my GF counts, because that’s way beyond a crush. ---

I’ve always found [Prince William](http://data2.blog.de/media/487/1249487_aece2e6c40_m.jpeg) to be pretty winsome. Wonder if he’ll hook up with that Swedish princess for an over-the-top adorable royal wedding? ---

I nominate newsman [Charles Perez](http://www.local10.com/2007/0509/13286086.jpg) who had a natially syndicated talkshow from '94 to '96. He looks better when his hair wasn’t so slicked down and hangs out loose over his forehead. He could wear a pair of jeans like nobody’s business. Must not forget local CBS newsie [Maurice DuBois](http://farm1.static.flickr.com/206/479340319_9022917946.jpg?v=0). Very 'licious and a seemingly nice personality to boot. ---
