Jeremy --

I know that is the exact equivalent.  That is why I said it.  Well, part of 
my motivation was actually the fear of someone I know personally on this list 
responding with the Jimmy question and trying to get me to answer it when I 
said that I would pick Zeppelin live over a night with anyone -- easy answer, 
no thinking involved.  The only way that answer would be harder for me to 
answer would be the Jimmy v. Zep question.  I never said I would pick Jimmy, 
only that it would be tougher.  Not sure which I would pick in that case.  A 
little more thinking would be involved in the answer!!  :-) I would bet that 
there are several guys on this list that have a tough choice between Britney 
and Zep.  I was just responding to what you said about the question being for 
guys and that it would be hard for girls to answer, and trying to put myself 
in that situation.  That's all Jeremy!  

And....I don't see Britney as a poor little victim of the record company 
either.  Sorry, just my opinion.  If she was 15, maybe.  But she is an adult 
now, making her own choices.  I am sure most guys do find her attractive.  
That's fine, I don't care, we all have our own personal likes and dislikes.  
I am just tired of her being everywhere I look.  Maybe if she did have some 
sort of musical talent I might not feel the way I do.  You are right though, 
at least Christina Aguilera can sing.
