The List

We, my friends and I, talk about the list a lot, but nailing it down is tougher than I thought. But nail it down you should. It is an ever evolving thing I agree, but were it to hold water in a Kangaroo court of peers, it needs to be publicly declared.
Now, I too am tempted to cheat by naming groups or classes of people. But an open pass for all Pole Vaulters (ah, Pole Vaulters - such perfect bodies. Strength for the speed and the spring and lean enough to fly.) leads to an open pass to Heptathletes, then to track, then to athletes in general. No, this is list that is hard to create - as much a comment on yourself as on them, spoken in both who you've chosen and who you've been forced to ommit. (I'm sorry Milla, it just hasn't been the same since the Fifth Element.)
So, while I retain the right to amend the following, as it stands these are my five exemptions. Any indescretions with the following individuals can not be construed as having any reflection on my relationship with Donna.










Cate Blanchett - captivating, enigmatic, this woman steals the show time and time again.













Diane Lane - such an attractive woman, a beautiful balance of strength and vulnerability.













Jennifer Aniston - Brad you fool, you fool.










Kate Beckinsale - as Ava Gardner or a vampire clad in latex, she is a woman with timeless beauty.










Nicole Kidman - she can be so beautiful and so cold, she is magnetic.


PS For those who are curious, Donna's list includes Allen Iverson, Gael Garcia Bernal, George Clooney, Johnny Depp, and Matt Good. (With josh Hartnett making a strong run for the top.)

The one that you have forgotten is Johnny Depp. And I may have to replace one of the five with Josh Hartnett...the problem, is who to replace?
