I don&#8217;t know why, but guys over fifty turn my crank in a big way.  Guys over forty-five, let&#8217;s say, because James May is only in his forties, and he&#8217;s like, my number one dreamy older guy.  But I digress.<\/p>\n<p>I like a lot of older guys, but just being over the proverbial hill isn&#8217;t the defining quality that makes me think, &#8220;Huh, I would like to get on that, albeit carefully, as he isn&#8217;t as young as he used to be.&#8221;  One famous older man who I absolutely adore, but not in a &#8220;Yeah, I&#8217;d do him,&#8221; kind of way is John Lithgow.<\/p>\n<p>John Lithgow is awesome.  He wrote a children&#8217;s book about a squirrel, and it&#8217;s so cool, you just have to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Micawber-John-Lithgow\/dp\/0689835426\/ref=sr_1_8?s=books&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1297788188&amp;sr=1-8\">read it for yourself<\/a>.  In fact, he&#8217;s written a lot of really cool books for kids.  He was also in the most freaking awesome show ever, 3rd Rock From The Sun.  And he played a serial killer on Dexter.  And that&#8217;s where my story takes a horrible turn.<\/p>\n<p>I started watching Dexter at the urging of two of my friends, Scott and Jill, and once I started, I was hooked.  It&#8217;s one of the best shows on television, as far as I&#8217;m concerned, but then again I don&#8217;t really watch tv.  Anyway, it&#8217;s awesome, and I busted through three seasons in four days.<\/p>\n<p>And then I got to season four.  Let me set the scene.  I&#8217;m watching Season four on my laptop.  I&#8217;m working on three concurrent writing projects for Abigail right now, so I&#8217;m doing double duty, writing and watching Dexter.  I look up, and there&#8217;s man butt.  Actually, not bad man butt.  My interest is piqued.<\/p>\n<p>And then I notice it&#8217;s John Lithgow.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I&#8217;m faced with a conundrum.  John Lithgow has an awesome booty.  How do I reconcile this knowledge with the kindly face of my favorite alien on 3rd Rock?  How do I read Micawber to my children without thinking of what a nice butt the author has?<\/p>\n<p>This is why there needs to be some kind of nudity early warning system.  When I watched Boardwalk Empire, I was fully aware that yes, it&#8217;s an HBO series, I was probably going to see Steve Buscemi nude.  But there are some celebrities you just don&#8217;t expect to see naked, especially in the four season of a show that has relatively little nudity.<\/p>\n<p>Granted, it wasn&#8217;t sexual nudity.  But now I know he has a nice ass, I have to put John Lithgow on my &#8220;I&#8217;d hit that&#8221; list, which is already pretty long.  Now, I&#8217;m going to have to reorder my list, figure out some kind of filing system, and it&#8217;s going to fuck my whole day up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As many readers of my blog know, I dig older guys.
