My list tends to be somewhat flexible except for one particular slot:

1. David Duchovny – Probably on his way out, since I’ve always liked _Mulder_ better than _David_, if you know what I mean, and I’m just about over _The X-files_.
2. Norm McDonald – I can’t help it, I just think he’s cute as hell.
3. Dennis Quaid – he’s been on the list since _The Big Easy_.
4. Jeremy Northam – The newest one on my list, but will probably last a while – Yum!

– and, always #1:

Paul Newman circa 1958 – I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – the pinnacle of male evolution.

Thanks _so much_ for the link to the Oded Fehr page. Please, post more links to these guys whose names I may not recognize. What about the guy who played the mummy in the Mummy? He looks **good** bald.

1. Marla Sokoloff
2. Shiri Appleby
3. Eliza Dushku
4. Christina Ricci
5. Natasha Lyonne
6. Allyson Hannigan  
What, I couldn’t settle on 5. It was hard enough to narrow it down to 6 fercrissakes.

Not only do I have 6, but I reserve the right to alter the list at any time, with no notice. My tastes are constantly fluctuating. However, the first 2 are not going anywhere, I assure you.

2. Bridget Fonda
3. Kirsten Dunst
4. Christia Ricci, in _The Opposite of Sex_. **My God** she was hot in that.

No need to defend this choice. She’s Alyson Hannigan, and she appears on many of the above lists.

No, I mean her, _as_ the band geek!

Oh hey, I can dig that too. I have Gillian Anderson on my list, but I don’t want her, I want Dana Scully. Scully is smart and sexy. Gillian is a kook. She’d have to let me call her Scully or just deal with the fact that I was pretending that’s who she was.

That would be Arnold Vosloo, who definitely makes my current list:

Arnold Vosloo  
Oded Fehr  
Brendan Fraser  
Val Kilmer  
Jimmy Page (imagine what he can do with those hands!)

Has anyone been watching the thread, “Can’t decide if they’re ugly…”? It’s funny that some of the same people are being mentioned there as here.

Evo95, I cannot say that I agree with your pics, but …

Although you picked that scrawny, emaciated little annoying waif Christina Agluuii …Argliriaa … Linguini, I must state for the record that comparing her to Dee Snyder is absolutely one of the funniest damn things I’ve ever heard, and I will cherish the visual of her looking up at “Dad” and squeeking, “I wanna rock”, forever.

As for a list … I have never put any thought into it, but I do have some names just to throw out:

En Vogue … all of’em.  
Kristy Swanson … probably #1 (drooool)  
Christina Applegate.  
Charisma Carpenter, perhaps.  
Tia Carrara (sp) (liked her better with short hair)  
Gotta be some more, but my memory is shot.

Also, while I can’t say I’d like to sleep with these guys, I will give some names of men that I think are attractive:

The singer from Smashmouth.  
Russell Crowe  
Micheal Jai White (not all his muscle, I just think he’s got a friendly face)  
Others I can’t think of, and, weirdly, this one black guy from a commercial from about a year ago. Can’t know who he is, but he’s one of the most amazing looking guys I’ve ever seen.

Now that I feel a little weird, I’ll go.
