Heat wave!
Supposed to get all the way up to 40 this weekend. Break out the swimsuits!
Speaking of swimsuit, I often wanted to see Linda Rondstadt in one.
The tight, high waisted jeans, boots, hair, lusty voice- what more could you ask for? I wanted to hit that like the fist of an Angry God. I must have spent a hundred hours holding the album “Who’s here” up with one hand. Of course, she’s politically ignorant as any of the rockandroll intelligentsia, and supports Michael Moore, whom she also currently resembles- but boy, could that woman make Mr Happy come to attention, in her day.

I wouldn’t have the balls to admit that. I am in favor of having a series of sex industry clones made from her, though. Educated clones. Send me three.
“In her day…” qualifier makes the game WAAAAY to loose. Let’s tighten it up some.
Take any entertainer of your choice, who is within 10 years of your actual age, and lets’ talk about THOSE clones.
For MY age group, I propose Raquel Welch. No one else REMOTELY near the age of 70 looks half as good…
AND, she has the brains to go with her beauty. (Hoists a shot of Jack) Here’s to FIFTY YEARS of lookin’ good, baby!
Dog: how about vicki la motta?
Add Ann Margaret to the above list, and I am soooo there. And unlike certain other actresses from about the same time frame, when Ann when to Viet Nam she:
1. Went to SOUTH Viet Nam
2. Entertained the troops (ours).
I learned everything I need to know about Linda Ronstadt many years ago–I read in Rolling Stone, IIRC, that she was driving her Porsche, never taking it out of first gear, and blowing the engine. She didn’t know the difference between a manual and auto tranny.
That’s hardly a surprise!! Shame about the Porsche.
Roller Skates and short shorts.
That’s an album cover that never grows old.
Within ten years of my age? Aw that has to be Valerie Bertinelli. She’s a bit older than me, but there’s one 50 year old I don’t mind saying makes me wonder if my “reaction” is showing whenever she’s on the cover on one of those grocery store magazine racks.
But Stretch beat me to the punch on the album cover for Living in the USA. It came out in 1978 when I was 14, into puberty feet first, and there was Aphrodite herself: tightly curled dark hair, coal black eyes (with a close resemblance to a neighbor named Donna who rode her skateboard up and down the sidewalk all day for her entertainment, and my wall climbing frustration) ultra short jogging shorts snugly fit against full hips and shapely tanned thighs, and knee high white socks. and. roller. skates. The record sleeve image of her tying her skates was also killer.
Who needed a copy of Oui hidden between the mattress and box spring (actually hidden in the bottom of the box of GI Joes I no longer played with – I knew mom would never look in there and I was right) when there was Linda’s album cover and the JC Penney summer catalog and its swimsuit section, all out in the open?
We guys get older, but we never grow up. Guess what my new monitor background screen is now. Yup, the original Miss Sex on Wheels.
gratifying to know I’m not the only one to have this memory.
Fully half of the male-occupied rooms in the dorms I lived in had a poster of her Blue Bayou album cover.
Oh, speaking of politically ignorant, she was Jerry Brown’s squeeze during his first stab at running California into the ground.
yeah, dumb as a hammer, but nice dumper and could she ever sing.
Jeebus, Og! Vicki LaMotta would have been 81, so she doesn’t quite make my list. Just how old do you think I am, anyway?
Don’t answer that, I’m 67, and yes, Christ was a Private when this I ran that ditch-digging crew that dug the Columbia River…
I still get wood at Kim Novak, and Ms Welch.
Lost a lot a stuff in the shower on those broads.
Dog, I thought all you old SAC types got serious wood over a young June Allison, thinking she should be with you vice Jimmy Stewart. (Yeah, I know she is outside the 10 year rule, but couldn’t resist. *Grin*)
Oh, and after Ann Margaret, Olivia Newton John, could have gotten physical any time she wanted.
It’s hard to look at Linda Ronstadt now and remember the hottie that she once was.
Mostly, it’s just hard to look at Linda Ronstadt now.
Guy — I remember standing in the record department of L.S. Ayres in downtown Indianapolis staring at the cover of “If You Love Me Let Me Know”. I was 13. That would have made her, hmm, about 24. I barely knew what sex was, but I knew I wanted to have it with Olivia Newton-John.
Sadly, she’s another one with the political sense of a sea urchin, though.
Ah, yes, good old Lacivious Neutron Bomb. She was already getting old when i was young, bt she had that accent that made me want to take out my wallet.
