7 celebrity crushes:

I don't really have any serious celebrity crushes, but here are some I find (or have found) attractive.
1. Mel Gibson, though I've thought of him as a hypocrite ever since I found out he doesn't allow his wife to wear short sleeves, but he'll bare his butt before the world.
2. Sean Connery. (By the way, my husband sounds a bit like him, when he speaks Welsh.)
3. James Garner.
4. Michael Fox (Ok, this was back in high school, but I'm running out of material here!)
5. Matthew McConaughey. (He, too, reminds me of hubbie.)
6. Tom Cruise (a very former one. Now I just hold enough Christian charity toward him to wish he'd get medicated.)
7. And just for fun, I'll list my first tv crush, Bill Daily. When I was a preschooler, I liked him so much as Roger Healey on "I Dream of Jeannie" that I named my imaginary friend Daily.

7 people I want to do this:
1. Joel (yes, I already know Lauren Bacall is on the list),
2. Sean,
3. Valerie,
4. Ellyn,
5. Tony,
