Amen. I hate when people recommend a professional to me, and I use their services, find them incompetent, and when I tell the referring person what I thought, I'm invariably told "oh, but he was so nice." Like I give a fuck if somebody's NICE. Do the job, do it right, don't rip me off. This goes for doctors, car repair, contractors, whatever.

Curmudgeonly yours,

How big a flag are you talking? Because if it's big enough, I could see her getting close to 0.

Bessette:5, but higher before she married a Kennedy.

Big enough to cover her least attractive assets, so I'm thinking double-wide.

I was wondering if he meant me, but I have never jumped in the sack with him. That I remember. NTTAWWT.

I thought he maybe meant me, but I've never told anyone here that I'm from the Nutmeg State.

Those who rate Carolyn as about a 6 are mainly correct.

Carling Bassett (Seguso) is at least a 7.

The internet (for once) comes up very empty on Carling Bassett photos! Nooooooooo.

I'm curious, did you find the hairlessness a turnon or reminiscent of a mexican pup?

I am really excited for SD's retort.

APparently I am not entitled to my own opinion on who is pretty. And if I try to express one, people get nasty on me or her.

Weird that.

FWIW, fyi, for the record, I don't find PLF all that pretty and in fact I would tend to imply that it may be certain that he is less pretty than Carolyn Bessette but OTOH more pretty than Hillary, although that is not saying much. No offence.

Good story but nonresponsive. Rate Bessette. If it helps, for the purposes of your analysis, you can consider Janet Jones a 10 and John Candy, when alive, in drag as a 0. And Hillary draped in the Maple Leaf flag a -3 or with the exchange rate a -5.

Well, Hillary is older, but if we're comparing them each in their day I'd put Hillary and Bessette as about equal. Somewhat squirrelly face versus slightly horsey face, but otherwise reasonably attractive but not Wow!

But I'll bet Hillary is much more of a tiger, ready to come, see and conquer, while Bessette exudes that I'm from someplace you're not and I barely wake up for life attitude. John John was kinda into that, barely waking up himself from what I saw from my particular sidelines. And if the media appointed most eligible bachelor in the universe saw something in her, who am I to judge.

Please assign numbers accordingly and explain why anyone cares.

Even after refreshing my recollection with contemporaneous documents, I am afraid that I simply cannot remember anything responsive to your question. Ay caramba.

Though I did not school with Carling, I did know her when we were school-aged. I concur with str8, she's gorgeous. She was a knock-out in high school.

the medical chat board I've seen was operation-specific, not tied to a doctor. everyone who posted was negative. those who have a good experience get out and enjoy life, like on the TV commercials. the posters are the unfortunates, the statistics, anyone looking for a chat board to post about medical things is looking to complain.

No cocks either, but you know who is really absolutely gorgeous in person is Janet Jones. She's very tall and actually kind of big. Lots of presence. We were in the bathroom at her husband's bar looking in the mirror how you do when you are about to go back out and checking your makeup, and she made all of us in the bathroom look like roadkill in comparison. We all noticed it. really hot.

Apropos of Janet's husband the bar owner, I was pleased to learn this morning on ESPN that this guy was elected to the Hall of Fame.

Oh, and I'd give Carolyn a solid 8. She's no Rena Sofer (or Ashley Judd), but I'd dance with her at the Christmas* party at the country club.

*Yes, I said Christmas -- she's a WASP from Connecticut, isn't she? -- though eventually I'd get to celebrate the Generic Winter Gift-Giving Holiday instead.

Oh, almost forgot Grant:

Are you also part of the horsey set? Not horsey-looking, though, really horses have quite nice asses as long as they are relatively well-groomed and youngish and get good workouts.

I don't get that example. She's ugly but she has a nice body. Not too skinny by any stretch of the imagination. You don't have to have excess body weight to be healthy.

She does have a nice body, and she's not too skinny in general (her weight is officially cited as 121, which at 5'4" would give her a BMI of 20.8, on the not-extremely lower end of normal - but I've also seen Parker cited as weighing about 100). It is the low body fat that was drawing my comment, which, based merely on my observation of her continually ripped arms, stayed pretty low throughout her last pregnancy. She's nearly got 6-pack abs, though she's at least honest about having to work out about 4 hours/day to have it.

Your socks are showing. Again.
