My wife’s 52, and each night nowadays she goes to bed with a 63 year old. She still seems to be happy about that, and even when we were a lot younger, the age difference wasn’t an issue. 🙂

Lynda Carter. I had a crush on her when I was 5 years old and still do to some extent. I think people were concerned when I was a little kid and had my room decorated in Wonder Woman decor and used to play with her theme dolls. I think they thought I was gay (it was just the opposite of that; I loved beautiful women even as a child and developed several crushes on them very early).

I am pretty sure my babysitters were not telling the truth when they told me that they mailed my elementary school appreciation letters because I never got a response. However, I did get her to respond about 9 years ago and I am sure it really was her. She even gave me her personal e-mail address. I have no idea if it still works but we chatted back and forth a few times. That was an unresolved childhood dream that I finally got to fulfill.

I also have a bit of a thing for Martha Stewart since she got out of prison and started hanging out with Snoop Dog. She is naturally beautiful and funny too once you get her away from the tedious homemaking stuff.

Martha Stewart seems like she has a really wild side and would rock my world and then make me a fancy breakfast in the morning.

Ellen Barkin!!!

She is so, so, sexy! She’s not one of those celeb’s that you see as art, beautiful but don’t touch. She actually sparks that “oh, yeah” reaction.

Since I turned 50 it seems that fewer folks are now outside of my realm of possibilities 😃

I’d go for Sigourney Weaver (67) or Christianne Amanpour (59).

Mary Tyler Moore was beautiful til the end. Jane Fonda still looks great for being close to 80.

My wife says hands off, he belongs to her. 😃

That’s how I feel about the aforementioned Mr. Gere. He had me at **Breathless** , 1983.

Yep, Raquel.

I had a interesting meet with her. I was a Security Guard, working my way thru college, working at a Studio for some TV charity event . It gets boring waiting to go on, many celebrities get sloshed.

My company usually hired retired cops or military. So Raquel comes up to me as says “You’re younger than most of our guards?” And I tell her I am working my way thru college. She asks my major and I say Marine Biology and then she chats for me for like a half hour about cetaceans. And she really knows her stuff, very intelligent. Sure, it was mostly due to being bored but still to converse with a lowly guard for that amount of time, and intelligently on a science issue, made me crush on her like mad.
