There's something about this photo that I just love.

Lodwick, that link is too funny. Tony was definitely not a British male!

[Carolina]

ROTFLMBO!!

The English male avoids being alone with a woman because he dreads being alone with a woman.

‘The key to understanding the English man is the fact that he cannot go to bed with a woman without first getting drunk,’

The quintessential English male:

Glad you enjoyed the link - poor brits.

Leah pretty well sliced & diced them. ;-)

[lodwick]

[daisyscarlett]

Despite the fact that lil Tommy wears lifts in his shoes and is probably standing on a stool, note how Trent Lott towers over him....hee hee...

[daisyscarlett]

Even at six hours, I did not want that movie to end....

[daisyscarlett]

Well if the topic of the day was "What Guild Women Do Not Want In a Man", this photo would be right on....

Former President Bill Clinton talks to reporters at the construction site of the William J. Clinton Presidential Center and Park Wednesday, July 24, 2002, near downtown Little Rock, Ark. Clinton said the library complex will be a landmark for Little Rock. (AP Photo/Danny Johnston)

[Carolina]

A giant cigar's coming outta his head.

[lodwick]

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

That man needs a training bra.

[LibertyGirl77]

Yum....Bruce Willis is my favorite. (Colin Firth, further up the thread, ain't half bad either.) And Tom Selleck was my very first crush as a little kid watching Magnum, P.I.

[pubmom]

I have been sitting here trying to come up with a suitable reply. I suppose "nice thread" is more appropriate than "Whoooo baby!" for a married woman.

[Endeavor]

I just got back from an appt with the most gorgeous man. He is a cross between Richard Gere and Tom Cruise - the Cruise nose with the Gere hair eyes and chin. Absolutley gorgeous. I couldn't stay focused on the mtg. It was terrible, I just kept thinking "this is the most gorgeous man." That rarely happens, but this guy was awesome. He sure made my trip!

[Endeavor]

Could ya post a pic of Cary Grant? He is my all time heart-throb.

[Timeout]

Another all-time fave

[Utah Girl]

Oh my, Clinton looks terrible in that photo.

[Timeout]

Clinton said the library complex will be a landmark for Little Rock

Is this like "Simon Says"?:
Clinton said he was the smartest President in history.
Clinton said he was the first black president.
Clinton said he did not have sex with that woman, Mzzzzz...

Clinton said....sheesh, why does anyone listen to me anymore?

[lodwick]

Marcello y Sophia

[Timeout]

What a pair!

(You can take that any way you want)
