   The women do seem to go extra gaga over celebrities. . . I CBA. . .   
      
   Wgat did that ball player ever do for me? NOTHING! I considered liking hot   
   actersses,. but realized as soon as I liked one, two more'd just replace her   
   who were equally as worthy of my 'improper' interest.   
      
   Farrah Fawcett prolly went the longest  (& Jaclyn Smith -- yup, I only liked   
   Charlie's Angels for them); but all good things came to an end & I moved on   
   when the series did. . .   
      
   Did like Babewatch for a while (local home girl Pamela Anderson starring)   
      
   But the story was noticeably missing, & just loking at tyhe sam,e old same old,   
   bouncing across the sdand scenes got ho hum soon enough; that's when I outgrew   
   caring who was on the tv. . .   
      
   Except for Helen Hunt in Mad About You, as she's an excellent method actor --   
   she fully & truly becomes the character, & expresses every microexpression the   
   character would, & easy on the eyes never hurts either, but no more was that   
   the pivotal basis for my interest.   
      
   Now, of course, every actress on every sitcom is young enough to be my kid!   
      
   Ick, no thanks. . .   
      
   I only saw one concert in person, late '80s, Lionel Ritchie, as my girlfriend   
   got free tix as a babysitting bonus.   
      
   They were nosesbleed seats(band members were vertical ants), but no matter; I   
   wasn't interested in Lionel Ritchie; liked people-watching more than anything,   
   until everyone around us got too high. & became boring, & my GF was getting   
   nauseated from the second hand pot smoke, so we left early.    
      
   No loss.   
      
   I was just confused why literally EVERYONE around us was smoking weed -- at a   
   rock concert, I get it -- that's deemed part of the culture, but pop? Unless it   
   was to try to make a boring show even slightly elevated?   
      
   Oh well; never been to another concert -- they seem too loud & boisterous for   
   my tastes -- I prefer studio albums -- as there's just the music & singing.   
      
      
   Your friend,
