Post a picture of someone you had a crush on when you were younger...

[WillParkinson]

Thanks to Jobycom's poll on Doctor Who I was able to relive one of my early crushes:




Matthew Waterhouse

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_Waterhouse

Who was your childhood crush?

[datasuspect]

1. im feeling lazy today

but do a google image search of Melissa Manchester (1970s era) and you'll have my answer.

[WillParkinson]

2. You should hear how she talks about you...

[Aristus]

3. Susan Sullivan. I fell in love with her after watching the pilot ep of The Incredible Hulk.

She's still an attractive woman to this day.

But once, she looked like this:

[Skittles]

23. she has always had such an elegant, regal presence

decent actress, too

[GreenPartyVoter]

4. Middle school celebrity crush

Jon-Erik Hexum

[WillParkinson]

6. Can't see his picture, but...

I used to love Voyagers.

[GreenPartyVoter]

17. Well, here's a few at google images

[Skittles]

24. ooh he was fine

soooo tragic :cry:

[GreenPartyVoter]

25. Don't I know it! *passes tissues*

:cry:

[Skittles]

26. I remember when it happened

I was utterly crushed at how senseless it was, not educating actors on the use of dangerous props. So senseless.

[alphafemale]

5. James Tiberius Kirk

On edit. And I still adore william Shatner even though he's no longer into the eyeliner

[Tuesday Afternoon]

7. Book 'em, Danno (James MacArthur)

who passed last week :(

[triguy46]

8. These two, I think they were sisters, circa 1964

<a href="" target="_blank"><img src="" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

20. "They" weren't sisters, it's the same person -- Hayley Mills.

She played a set of twins in some Disney movie way back when.

[GreenPartyVoter]

22. I think that was "The Parent Trap"

[bikebloke]

74. Luckily, there are two.

I had a crush on Haley Mills too, so there's one for each of us.;)

[Brother Buzz]

9. Penny was the number back in my day. Annette Funicello didn't even come close.

[triguy46]

16. "Fire up the Songbird, Penny!"

[HERVEPA]

69. OK Sky

[Joe Fields]

75. lol...I watched that show every Sat. morning.

[Blue_In_AK]

10. Dion DiMucci

I know, I'm old. What can I say?

[TriMera]

11. Charlie's Angels.

I loved Kate Jackson!

[Patsy Stone]

12. Lance Kerwin

[WillParkinson]

33. I liked him, too...

I had a lot of crushes. :P

[Patsy Stone]

52. :)

Look at the sensitive eyes... Sooooo dreamy.

[Rabrrrrrr]

70. Ah, Lance Kerwin - actor turned fundy messed up pastor, nailed for stealing.

Which is not to say that "Of course Lance was caught stealing" but to say "Of course the evangelical fundy asshat pastor was caught stealing". Probably after doing a 6 week sermon series on the evils of theft as it pertains to those damn illegals, welfare cheats, minorities, and others that God hates.

[WillParkinson]

71. Aw, so disappointing...

You ruin good fantasy lives, Rabrrrrrr!

[catzies]

76. OMG I CAME HERE TO SAY THAT (ok, I'll stop shouting now, sorry)

When I was 15 I LOVED "James at 15!" :loveya:

[travelingtypist]

13. I had three I remember.

I think I was about 6. Barnabas was my first.


The next one I really remember was Apollo.


The beautiful Beatle


One current crush is Justin Verlander of the Detroit Tigers.
?


Give me a brunette at least 6-foot with brown eyes and I'm sunk.

[snailly]

14. LOL

[Kaleva]

15. My first crush. Didn't want to miss any of her shows.

[wickerwoman]

18. Vincent Price

I had a huge crush on him in The Ten Commandments.

Another very early one was the older brother (Wally?) on Leave it to Beaver


And Dusty from GI Joe- I remember crying during the "triple agent" episode

[Lucian]

19. Topanga from "Boy Meets World."

[Skittles]

21. Mick Taylor, Rolling Stones

[pacalo]

28. I liked Brian Jones & wish he had lasted longer.

My only really big crush was Joe Namath. First time I saw him I was flipping tv channels & caught him being interviewed shirtless, holding a bottle of champagne in the NY Jets' locker room. They had just won the AFC championship. Long dark hair, Fu Manchu mustache...wow. He's the reason I became a pro football fan.

[old mark]

45. Here's a more recent pic of Mick playing with Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings:

He is the best guitarist the Stones ever had, and he is still playing and touring a lot with different groups.
Keith Richards could not stand him because he was too good.

Link won't post - try here:

[Richardo]

[driver8]

[WillParkinson]

38. Here's another one of mine...

I was 45.

[jobycom]

47. I always thought his sister would grow up nice.

[WillParkinson]

48. Agreed...

Katara was always very pretty. I wish they had continued the series and not let it run just 3 seasons. There was so much more to do.

[Ikonoklast]

35. One of the first, and still to this day...

Not only elegant, talented, and graceful, but a good human being to boot.

[hippywife]

36. A few in order as I aged:

Clint Walker as Cheyenne:




My most embarrassing was David Cassidy when I was about 12:




In my later teens, 20's and 30's I was a Jagger Junkie:



And swooned over Cat Stevens. This pic hung in our bathroom because my roomie loved him, too. (Hanging it there was a joke...sorta. LOL)




I got into football very briefly in my mid 30's and then it was Russ Francis:




And also in my 30's and 40's it was Sam Eliot, except in The Lifeguard, hated him in that.





I guess, no I know, I fell in love very easily as a younger woman. :hi:

[guitar man]

43. Tina Louise

I know most guys will tell you they had it bad for Mary Ann, but I was always nuts about Ginger :P

[WillParkinson]

84. OK, I gotta admit...

I did NOT know she posed for Playboy. That's kind of a shock, though I'm not sure why it should be.

[gmoney]

88. From Dazed and Confused

Shavonne Wright: What the hell are you talking about girl?
Kaye Faulkner: Didn't even think about it did you?
Shavonne Wright: Gilligan's Island?
Kaye Faulkner: It's what called a male pornographic fantasy.
Shavonne Wright: Oh my haha
Kaye Faulkner: Think about it! You're basically alone on a deserted island with 2 readily available women. One, a seductive sex goddess type. The other... a healthy girl-next-door-type with a nice butt. So the men have it all, the Madonna and the whore. Women get nothing! We get a geek, an overweight middle-age guy, and a nerdy scientific type.
Jodi: The professor... is sexy.

[MorningGlow]

44. OMG I looooooved Adric!

I got to see him at a sci-fi convention, on a Dr. Who discussion panel. Asked him a question and everything. :blush: He was very nice.

As for the rest...eh, the usual:

[WillParkinson]

49. I am officially jealous!

Curse you MorningGlow, curse you! :-)

[MorningGlow]

50. ...

:evilgrin:

Eh, I cannot lie. It was a bit of a letdown because he talked too much about his girlfriend. :P

[WillParkinson]

51. Hm...I think he's gay

Or so I heard in many places.

[MorningGlow]

54. Well that's interesting!

I wonder what that was all about, then. :shrug:

[WillParkinson]

60. No idea...

At least everything I've read says he's gay and living in (want to say Connecticut) with his partner.

[MorningGlow]

62. Cool

Cheers to him! :toast:

[MilesColtrane]

46. Angela Cartwright, AKA "Penny" on Lost in Space

My first "hommina hommina" before I knew what that meant, at 6 years old.

[Aristus]

55. *Guy Swoon*!

I ADORED Angela Cartwright! I suppose Judy was expected to be the sex symbol of "Lost In Space", but I had it majorly bad for Penny! :loveya:

[WillParkinson]

61. She looks so different...

Where's the silver jumpsuit?

[deutsey]

53. Gretchen Corbett from the Rockford Files

And Melody from "Josie and the Pussy Cats" (the '70s cartoon) probably my first crush ever:

[applegrove]

68. I used to watch that show!

[Iggo]

56. Jeannie C. Riley (of 'Harper Valley PTA' fame).

"Jungle Pam" Hardy. The staging girl for Jungle Jim Liberman's funny car



And Linda Vaughn, "Miss Hurst Shifter"



every gearhead I knew had a crush on these two

:loveya:

[Spacemom]

65. Christopher Reeve

I was 9 when the first Superman movie came out. Seeing him in that movie was the first time I can remember thinking maybe boys didn't have cooties after all. :evilgrin:

[Pool Hall Ace]

66. Never anybody even closely age-appropriate

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Roman Gabriel and actor Robert Redford

[Manifestor_of_Light]

81. several

Three in one picture -- sexgod, sexgod, sexgod, drummer. :D



First grade crush - Adventures in Paradise, Gardner McKay:



A blast from the past -- a guy who was always sensitive and cool. Ashley Wilkes was NOT his best role:



Lots of the musicians from the rock 'n' roll revolution: John Sebastian, Ray Manzarek, Peter Noone and his goofy gums, the Monkees (I was prime teenybopper age then), my fave was Michael Nesmith because he was intelligent life from Texas, Pete Townshend. I loved The Who because of their bad attitude of tearing up their equipment. They also managed to be the best, the worst and the loudest rock 'n' roll band in the world -- all at the same time.

From the 1986 Guinness Book of World Records, Special Edition:

The amplification for The Who concert at Charlton Athletic Football Ground, London, England, May 31, 1976, provided by a Tasco PA system had a total power of 76,000 Watts from eighty 800 W Crown DC 300 A amplifiers and twenty 600 W Phase Linear 200's. The readings at 50 m (164 ft) from the front of the sound system were 120 decibels.

Note that decibels are logarithmic, so 120 decibels is TEN times as loud as 110 decibels.

:D :headbang:

[av8rdave]

82. OK...here's mine

Still love that picture!

[MilesColtrane]

83. You're so vain. You probably think those nips are about you.

[TorchTheWitch]

85. Mikhail Baryshnikov
