If I Wasn't Me I Would Be . . . ?

Even for just a day!
How many times when you were a kid would pay homage to some hero (either real or imagined) and wished you were that person or character?
Do you covet the lifestyle of the rich and famous or does the thought of being a world powerbroker excite you.
Perhaps one of the great humanitarians of our time or something gleefully base as your favourite super-hero.
Maybe you would like to swap places (ala the movie Freaky Friday) with your children for a day and vice versa.
Or would the whole Eddie Murphy and Trading places scenario be something you'd care to explore?
As for me . . . well . . . perhaps I've been here before and I'm currently living the dream - who knows . . .
One thing's for sure - the grass (it always seems at least) is ever greener . . .

Now, I don't know. Sometimes I think I would love to be a sexy young 20 year old but hell, fancy thinking of going through all that again.
You have really got me stumped with this one because it would probably be a mix of a lot of people rather than just one.

Perhaps you could combine their talents and be the world's fastest creative pop culture icon.

Lauren Becall and Anne Bancroft weren't two that immediately sprung to mind as far as my life was concerned but I guess there's reasons for that.
It really is a tough one though isn't it?
Here's looking at you kid . . .

A ninja - wow!
Remember (or not) the ninja's from the old Phantom Agent or Sintaro TV shows from the 60's?
I so wanted to be able to throw star knives and jump backwards into trees like those guys.
Hmmmm . . . .

Hmmm - I see a common thread running through this line of thinking . . . .

But when I was a young thing I wanted to be Olivia Newton John and also thought Lois Lane was great.

I don't know any girl who didn't want to be just like 'Livvy' - and I think every male had some kinda crush on ONJ at some stage of her career - but GG?
Wow - there's one for the ages . . .
Stay well
