Thrilling Days of Yesteryear

“The doggone girl is mine…”

 

My good friend Brent McKee has a post about this website called CelebMatch, in which you apparently plug in your birth date and they match you up with your ideal match, celebrity-wise.  So I scrunched up some idle curiosity and gave it the ol’ college try—here’s who they’ve set me up with:

 

1)      Carola Smit (99%) – Carola who?  I’ve never heard of her, and the only information I could find at IMDb is that she’s from the Netherlands and is sometimes credited as “BZN.”  That’s…interesting

2)      Tawny Kitaen (99%) – Okay, now we’re talkin’—I know who Tawny is.  (Yeah, I’ve seen Bachelor Party and the Whitesnake videos.)   It says at the IMDb that she was charged with domestic violence after allegedly kicking her husband—former major league pitcher Chuck Finley—with her high heels and twisting his ear.  (Likes the rough stuff, I’m guessing.  Check please!)

3)      Rosie O’Donnell (98%) – Um…I’m not up on the current celeb scene as well as I should be (my ignorance of Carola Smit will back me up on this one) but I’m pretty sure Rosie doesn’t swing that way.

4)      Ellen DeGeneres (98%) – Ellen’s on Brent’s list, too—I hope he doesn’t find out about us.

5)      Patricia Arquette (98%) – The bright spot on the list—I like Patty, particular in movies like Flirting with Disaster and The Indian Runner.  I’m not so sure I’d want to hang with her family, though (her brother David scares me)…but I’d always be up to hearing a story about her famous grandpop (Cliff Arquette, a.k.a. “Charley Weaver”).  I think she’s got a beau, though—the guy who played Mickey Mantle in 61*.

 

Oh, sure…I can you hear you scoffing about this—but from what I hear it’s all based on rock-hard science.  (Um…okay, perhaps that was a poor choice of words.)
