Lisa on "There's Just Something About Him"




Dear friends,

Moi, unlike Teresa, will not take the easy way out by posting a photo of some easy-to-love hero with pecs, abs, and well-developed muscle groups even beneath his arms and on the soles of his feet.

Be honest . . . isn't there some guy who may not be your conventionally handsome type but makes you think . . . "Hmm . . . he could be really interesting in the sack."

For me, it's Bill Murray. Oh, poke fun at his complexion, his thinning hair . . . but just watch him in Groundhog Day or Lost In Translation, and you'll see moments of transcendent sexiness. The way he wakes up next to Andi MacDowell and murmurs "What can I do for you today?"--and you know that whatever she says, no matter how silly, outrageous, perverted or romantic, he'll do it. The way he whispers in Scarlett Johansen's ear at the end of "Lost", during that heartbreaking-but-somehow-uplifting goodbye . . . and you have no doubt those secret words will live in her soul for a lifetime. Bill has a remarkable spectrum of moods and emotions--he can be hilarious, mean, petty, even vicious--but looking into his world-weary eyes reminds you of the elusive tenderness that can appear in the moments you least expect it. He's a man who loves women.

I just know he'd be great in bed.

So . . . do you have any unconventional crushes? A confession of a moment when a not-so-sexy guy suddenly has interesting possibilities? Because as we more discerning women know, sexiness is more than a pretty face.
