Okay, I'm not a boomer but mine is most definitely Tiffani Thiessen. Ever since I watched her on Saved by the Bell as a kid:

Smile Asked my husband what he was -

He said "Wasn't every guy's dream girl Farrah Fawcett?"

Trying to remember if my brother had the poster. I seem to think so.

Reaching back through memory and asking the question, who did I dream of for my heroes. Curiously enough, when it comes down to my adult hero, a "Star Buck Rogers" type character.......I can't picture much who he is based on. At best, in that hazy mental image, he's sort of a Jon Kelley/John Levene (Dr. Who Sgt. Benton).....but that's not quite "him".
Some of those mentioned were yummy. Maybe some still are, I don't know. I am no longer crushing on anyone. LOL

Gino Cappelletti, kicker for the BOSTON Patriots.

Went to my first Patriots game in 1963. Crushed on Gino the rest of my life. He came into my work in the '90s and was introduced to him and I got to reminisce about that game and I told him how I crushed on him. It was a great moment, especially when we both could talk about that game as if it was yesterday.

The reason it was just like yesterday was The Pat's didn't even have a place to play! The game was played at Nickerson Field, Boston University's stadium. We played the Houston Oilers.

I think The Oilers went on to become Tennessee Titans who are now coached by the wonderful Mike Vrabel who was a teammate of TB12 for 8 years of the NEW ENGLAND Patriots.

My first crush was David McCallum in Man From U.N.C.L.E. I think I mainly watched NCIS because he was on it. I even have a couple of LP albums that he made Then came Ringo Starr and then David Jones of the Monkees. My adult crush has been Pierce Brosnan, well until his latest several movies.....
