12 Hottest Women

A few weeks ago, at Cade's suggestion, I tried making a list of 'hot' famous women. It was meant to be a Top 10, but blew out to a Top 12. The list was limited by the fact that I was only including actresses for whom I could find decent photos on the internet somewhere. This whole thing doesn't work so well without the photos, but I thought I'd list the 'winners' here for the record...

12. Gong Li
11. Ingrid Bergman
10. Jane Fonda
9. Winona Ryder
8. Beyonce Knowles
7. Marilyn Monroe
6. Catherine Denueve
5. Bridget Fonda
4. Emmanuelle Beart
3. Michelle Pfeiffer
2. Felicty Shagwell. Sorry, Rollergirl. Oh, sorry again, Heather Graham
NUMBER 1. Sophie Marceau!

Wanker's Corner

Here's a wonderful restaurant in Portland that I'm sure we'd all love to
visit. Click on it to go to the webpage...

Wanker's Corner

If you ever go, make sure you say hi to the head Wanker for me!

Maybe even bring me back some Wankerwear, if you really want to put
yourself in my goodbooks.

Top 10 Most Invested-In Artists

I couldn't really do a top ten, as too many of my favourite artists got the same number of points. A number of artists have had to be grouped.
This does mean some of my favourites aren't listed. My Fred Astaire album is as brilliant as any album I've ever heard, but it's the only Fred album I've got. And I love Cake, but for some reason I've never gotten around to buying more than 2 albums, even though I've heard the others and approve mightily.
So here are the artists who have actually got my cash over the years. I think it's a nice list, though like Cade I'm afraid Kylie also made it on there, how embarrassment:
