I'm Straight, Really, But . . .

Two of the bloggers I read regularly -- Sarah at OK . . . Where Was I? and Hallie at The Wonderful World of Wieners -- posted risky columns this week.  The subject was five people who could make you play for The Other Team.

Not sure it's really possible; in fact, it's not.  I'm pretty happy with my team.  Not that there's anything wrong with that . . . 

BUT

I'll make a stab at it.

Here are five women, in no particular order, who could make me become a women's P.E. coach in old East Germany:



1.  Gillian Anderson -- best known for walking around looking pissed off and yelling "MULDER!" every ten seconds. Moody is the new black.



2.  Brooke Shields -- one of two women in the world whose eyebrows need even more deforestation than mine do (the other was Frida Kahlo).



3.  Gabrielle Reece -- remember her?  the 6'3" volleyball star?  Try to imagine playing an intensely physical game in THAT little get-up.  In sand.  You DO realize I'm talking about volleyball, right?



4.  Lauren Hutton -- the space between her teeth makes her seem human, which is difficult for super models.  Even super models of a certain age.



5.  Beyonce Knowles -- she can sing, she can dance, she can ac-- well, she can sing and dance!  And she's bootylicious, because somebody has to be.

Okay, don't read too much into this.  There are so many gorgeous women on TV that I can't help staring at.  I just wish that I could have found a dentist, or judge, or diplomat, or author -- somebody with a career more important than dancing, singing, pouting, posing, or playing a game.  But I don't suppose Jean Kirkpatrick or Gertrude Stein or Eleanor Roosevelt ever made anybody's short list.

Even if i did swing that way Anderson would not be on my list. At one time she was rather pretty, but today..........ick

Yay!!! I love to learn such things about my blogging buddies. Why? I have no idea. I'm weird. That pic of Gillian Anderson is really good. Can you believe that I never watched X files? I know, I was like the only person on the planet at the time. They did a 20/20 interview with me b/c of it. I'm sure if I did, I'd have to put her on my list b/c of that whole moody thing. And can I tell you how hard I laughed at the thought of Eleanor Roosevelt being on someone's list? Yeah, not mine.

Nice. Although, you seem to have left me off the list... typo, maybe?

I'd leave Mr.T for Angelina. No, totally not kidding.

:P

I can't wait to see what these women look like at 80 years old. There is no way 80 and beautiful will ever fly...therefore God forbid, if I had to switch teams give me Margaret Thatcher. Yes, I know she is deceased but I would also have to be to change over...

Leave it you Laurie! I never know what you are going to pull out of the hat but one things for certain it ain't gonna be no rabbit!

Ok there you have it: proof that I'm on the right team!!! Wow

[MommyTime]

Ok, these women are all seriously hot. Not that I'm contemplating switching teams. Just that I wanted to say you have great taste in women. There's no way to make that sound any different... :)

Love that you jumped on our bandwagon and took a stab at your list! You rock! And your choices were very impressive. Gabby still looks like that even after having kids! WOW!!
