In my next life I want to be Tina Turner. Who do you want to be?

[imenja]

Who do you want to be?

[Lavender Brown]

1. Audrey Hepburn

[MrScorpio]

2. Rocco Seffredi

If you don't know, you should find out

[imenja]

12. I don't get the Audrey Hepburn attraction

does it extend to Calista Flockhart and Karen Carpenter too?

[Lavender Brown]

24. I've never read that Audrey had an eating disorder

Though she was quite thin. It also isn't her body type which makes her appealing to me.

[imenja]

30. well I assume she did from looking at her

but I don't really know. It's clear she weighed under 100 lbs.

[progmom]

46. I admire her for her acting talents and her work on behalf of children

....specifically with Unicef.

[imenja]

47. I had forgotten her unicef work

good reminder

[lenidog]

3. I don't know if I want to be anyone else

but I would like to have an infusion of the wit, sharp tongue, sharp pen, charm and intelligence of Groucho Marx, Mark Twain and Ben Franklin

[jswordy]

4. Me, but I want to start out knowing what I do now!

[NewJeffCT]

38. I know what you mean

Ask out that girl in JR High that I was too shy to ask out - the same with a few in high school after that, etc.

Don't ask my ex-wife for her hand in marriage, or at least break it off a few months into the engagement

Remember a few big winning lottery numbers... then, invest it in amazon.com (or similar tech stocks) when they first go public at (I think) $8 per share and sell when they get up to $500+ per share... those types of things.

[RagingInMiami]

5. Frank Sinatra

[Ron Green]

6. Ike Turner. Look out, Woman!

[imenja]

11. eeww, icky

:thumbsdown: :nuke:

You mean look out "bitches." I don't think Ike every used the word women.

[BurtWorm]

7. Someone who hasn't been born yet.

It would be kind of drag to be someone who may already be dead by the time I get there.

9. Wouldn't Tina get upset?

;) :hi:

[MissMillie]

10. Cookie Monster

or


Bette Midler

[imenja]

13. and what kind of cookie will you monsterize?

of rather your favorite kind?

[MissMillie]

15. I like most cookies

not into cookies w/ raisins in them, but other than that, I'm pretty easy to please.

[RedstDem]

14. Ron Jeremey

[jswordy]

17. ...with better looks. DEFINITELY with better looks.

[imenja]

18. are there worse?

none come to mind.

[jswordy]

21. Uh, Ron looks like a large chipmunk to me, which of course is his...

videotape appeal. As males are ... uh ... engrossed in his performances, they can think, "DAMN, if he's that ugly and he can be with a hottie like that, SO CAN I!"

To which I say, "WHOAAAAA, SHORTY!"

Not unless:

a.) You are a millionaire or above.

b.) You pay her by the half-hour, or

c.) You get in the porn biz.

And if it's c, you'd better save yourself for the picture. LOL.

[imenja]

23. exactly, anyone can pay a woman

or a least some women, the ones that seem to interest you and ron

[jswordy]

28. Wow, a flame...toast me on the other side too, hun. LOL.

[imenja]

29. okay

:nuke:

It didn't really come across like I wanted it to.

[jswordy]

37. Thank you, nice and tanned now. LOL.

[imenja]

44. happy to oblige

:pals:

[Maine-ah]

16. I want to be a large bird

so I can fly over GW's head and drop a shit.

[flvegan]

19. Spiderman

Web-slinging, Spidey senses...Mary Jane.

[Misunderestimator]

20. Since we get to be someone living... Barbara Bush... and I would get...

an abortion. :) (Actually, a couple.)

[LynneSin]

22. I wanna be George W. Bush

because I can slack throughout high school and still get into the best university

Because I can pretty much slack off at that same university

Because I can party my ass of for 40 years

Because I too could be president without winning an election and without hardly trying


Nah - I'd rather be a cockroach than him!

[WilliamPitt]

25. Terri Schiavo

Just fucking kill me already.

[imenja]

26. make sure you write a living will with this provision:

[LynneSin]

27. You just want 8,342,532,213 threads about you in GD

Admit it!!!

[progmom]

31. That is so funny, because I do believe that is exactly what I blurted out

...to Tina Turner when I met her.

"Tina, I want to be you."



:loveya:

[imenja]

33. you actually met her?

Give us the details, please!

[progmom]

41. It was 5 years ago, at the Palace of Auburn Hills (outside of Detroit)

I just googled it - it was almost exactly 5 years ago. Weird.

Anyway, there was a meet & greet before the show for retail & radio. I was lucky enough to get to go. I had brought along some flowers, but they didn't let us bring anything into her dressing room. It was really quick - we shook hands, she stepped next to me, I blurted out the thing about wanting to be her, she laughed graciously, they took the picture, and I was ushered out of the room.

She looked fantastic up close. She is a goddess.

[imenja]

43. and she looks more beautiful all the time

more so now than when she was 20

[lpbk2713]

32. Paul Allen

He's not as conspicuous as Gates. I would rather have a lower profile. Fortune mag says he's worth about 21 billion, give or take a few.

[NewJeffCT]

36. Then, you can buy out Fox News

And a lot of other media...

Replace Sean Hannity with Al Franken and make Alan Colmes the "conservative"; Bill O'Reilly with Randi Rhodes...

[lpbk2713]

40. Good thought.

I'd do that and bankroll a lot of Dem causes. I'd like to see the repuker party fade of into oblivion.

[fluffernutter]

34. i saw her on the view, she lookjs amazing!

[imenja]

35. that's what prompted my post

I replayed her singing "you better be good to me" four times. She's awesome. I have to get her greatest hits CD.

[Taverner]

39. Peter Frampton

He got all the babes, wanton sex with groupies without the risk of HIV, got to be in Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, and performed one of the greatest live albums without being a great musician.

[NewJeffCT]

42. Rupert Murdoch or Ronald Reagan

Murdoch so I can turn Fox, the NY Post, etc into liberal icons.

Reagan so I could stop the Reagan Revolution that our country is still paying for...("My fellow Americans, in my first act as president, I confess that several of my supporters secretly negotiated with Iran to keep the hostages imprisoned until after my inaugeration. I'm disgusted at this action and will call for a special counsel to investigate. Additionally though I campaigned on the idea of supply side economics, upon further review, it would be too damaging to our country in the long term. Instead, I propose a national health care plan and a long term plan to update and upgrade the infrastructure of our great nation.")

[meegbear]

45. God

The present one's been God for a long time. It's my turn!
