Peace,
I actually got an elbow to the neck for this one... Similiar to your argument... We just purchased "Into The Blue"...and may I say.....certain angles while she's underwater......ahhhh...damn she could "swim"... .: Laughin' :. Anyway, I have this thing that I do to her (wife) when I see "something", and to make a long story short, when I "twitched" (hard to explain) when lookin' at her "swimming techniques", I caught one in the neck...

Jessica Alba is a very nice lookin' woman, but I don't really think she has too much Brains... That turns me off, so lookin' good isn't enough. If you have the movie or could get it, check out the "Special Features" when the cast is gettin' interviewed...pay mind to her vocab. and her mannerisms... I don't know, maybe it's just me...


Peace,
Jem

Jessica Alba is, in my mind, the hottest celeb out there right now.
There was a poll at Dodge Forums asking who is hotter, Alba or Jessica Simpson. I was shocked to see that Alba won 65% of the votes, almost 50 voters. I figured Simpson would win beeing blonde and having big boobs.

There's also pre-crack Lindsay Lohan.



But yea, you are right. Alba is probably "currently" the one.
