Okay, ladies, here's our little reader-participation game we call "Marry, Date, or Dump." For the following list of names, you have to tell me (by leaving a comment) which man you'd marry, which man you'd date, and which you'd dump. I'll go last.
1. Billy Graham, T.D. Jakes, Joel Osteen
2. Superman, Spiderman, Batman
3. Clark Gable, John Wayne, Cary Grant
If you have a "man worth marrying" that you'd like to add to the list, please email me here. Just be sure to include the basics about him, plus his pros and cons so we know what we'd be getting into. (Photos are nice too.)
And if you want to add to any pros/cons list already posted, please email me here or write your additions in the comment section after the appropriate post.

okay doky i'm first again.
1. billy graham- definately marry- what a wonderful guy with a great personality to boot.he is both faithful, resilient. it would be great to meet so many presidents.
joel osteen- date- he is so soft spoken i'd probably overpower him so it wouldn't last.
jakes- too sweaty for me-dump
2. batman- marry- love the cool gadjets and wayne's manor. the current batman in movies makes me think it would be a good choice.
superman- date- just once it would be fun to be falling off a building and get swooped up to leap over tall buildings.
spiderman- dump - i don't like a man with an identity crisis.
3. cary grant- marry - he seems so sauve and dashing with his perfect fitting suits. he also seems so fit and tan, so we'd be at the beach alot.
john wayne- date - i love horses he loves horses. i love the outdoors he loves the outdoors. i love a good western he loves a good western.
clark gable- dump- i never could like such a man, who doesn't give a ....
hoot!
Marmee - very funny comments. These are definitely not easy picks to rate. I was just heading to bed, so tomorrow I'll be back! Actually, later today ;-)
1. MARRY - None... I can't see marrying a famous evangelist. Too much spotlight and pressure to be perfect. Definitely something I could NOT live up to.
DATE - All three. Every girl should date a guy who challenges her. I just hope we could all break up as friends, because it would be nice to have their advice and guidance should I need it.
DUMP - I don't think any of them are DUMP-worthy (unlike Tom Brady in the last game) but if I dated and didn't marry them I assume we would have to break up. I would just make sure it was amicable.
2. MARRY - Superman. There has not been a Superman portrayed on the big or small screen that I didn't think was totally dreamy. I love 'em tall, dark and handsome. And I would always feel safe walking the dark streets after a late-night date. I mean, he's Superman.
DATE - Spiderman. I would have so much fun swinging through the city on his spiderweb strings. But in the end, spiders creep me out.
DUMP - Batman. Such a dark past. Also, unlike the other two, he's a mere mortal albeit with some sweet skills, but he has a much higher probability of actually getting injured. I would worry about him.
3. MARRY - Clark Gable. Although I've read that he smoked a lot of cigars which gave him horrible breath... I still would love to be Scarlett to his Rhett. Yes, big ears but there's something endearing about those quirks.
DATE - Cary Grant. Very suave and debonair, but also possibly gay. I'm not into trying to "turn" them but would love to have him to dance with at some weddings.
DUMP - John Wayne. The man had himself cryogenically frozen. This alone tells me that we would have very little in common as it relates to life and the after-life, which is something very important to me. But I do like his voice. And riding horses. I think we would have fun while it lasted.
Since Dreamlady has apparently fallen asleep (hopefully not while driving), I will go ahead and leave my comments. I seem to be missing an mjm as well. :o)
1. Billy Graham, T.D. Jakes, Joel Osteen
MARRY: Billy Graham. Seems to be a one-woman kind of guy, no scandals, kind, intelligent, friends with world leaders. Not to mention he would probably mention me a LOT on his prayers...and who doesn't need a good word or two with God? (They would be GOOD words, right Billy??) Then again, he sort of reminds me of a grandpa, which totally eliminates the marriage possibilities.
DATE: TD Jakes. He's fiery and that would be a good thing I think. Although the extra heat would lead to his sweating more and I'd have to invest in hankies.
DUMP: Joel Osteen. Two words: Perma, Grin. I don't think I could handle someone so happy all the time.
2. Superman, Spiderman, Batman
MARRY: Superman. Puhlease. No contest for me. He can fly. F-L-Y. I'd have a rule though, that he can't use his x-ray vision when looking at other women.
DATE: Batman. He's too dark for any long term relationship, but I'd definitely like to cruise in his car and spend his millions.
DUMP: Spidey. I hate spiders.
3. Clark Gable, John Wayne, Cary Grant
MARRY: Clark Gable. With breath as bad as his, he wouldn't notice mine. And I need a man who won't put up with all my stuff.
DATE: John Wayne. Would have married him were he not so rough with his women. Who doesn't love a cowboy? (Besides indians.)
DUMP: Cary Grant. Too stiff. Too tan. But I dig his suits and his movies.
I'm here...just taking a little "nap" from commenting. Besides I was not "inspired" by any of the choices on this one. :)
Since I would never marry or date any man I don't ever post here, but I do like to read S/S/M's humor. I do have to defend my man John Wayne. He is buried at Pacific View Memorial. Here is a link to a photo of his gravesite.

mjm: naps are allowed. even celebrated! :o) was just missin' your wit.
nathan talbot: whoa! a man reads this blog??? are you a man worth marrying?? just teasing.
I honestly typed John Wayne's name first, but then I pictured all the times I've seen him "roughing up" his ladies. Only in the movies of course, and never really bad, just in a "me Tarzan. you Jane." type of way. :o) Then again, Rhett was pretty tough on Scarlett...I think it must've been the bad breath thing that sealed the deal. :o)
Thanks for the comments!
You said, "whoa! a man reads this blog???"
Only because it is yours.
okay, I relent. I am so not into these groups you picked this time, but just to not be a party-pooper, here goes:
1. Marry - Joel Osteen. Hey, I don't know if his curls aren't real or his teeth require whitening every week! But, he is certainly in a positive mood all the time, he is a 'modern man', devoted family man, and he is reaching millions worldwide with the gospel. It doesn't hurt that he is mega-rich, but not looking for playmates to share it with! (hopefully, that is - these days one never can be sure)
Date - Billy Graham. Good ole' Southern boy (love that drawl), has been around the world and met kings and popes - nothing like dating the rich & famous to boost my morale. He is also committed in his faith in the Lord, has a good track record in his personal accountability, not bad looking, but still humble with a sense of humor. Good dating guy!
Dump - T.D. Jakes. Don't ask, won't tell!
2. This was a hard category! They are all creepy - being on a constant Halloween night in their get ups! But for the game's sake:
Marry - Superman! Yeah, I hate flying, but maybe I could get over it with his big, muscular arms holding me tight! He does have a steady day job, and he is a one-woman man. He's famous, compassionate, able to leap over tall buildings, faster than a speeding bullet, etc. I am just not sure he would be able to spend a relaxing night at home - always hearing some desperate cry for help somewhere on the planet!
Date - Batman. I don't know about living in a cave, but I could have a great night on the town in that cool Batmobile. His man servant could fix up a fabulous private dinner for two, I am sure! He is tall, dark, and so handsome in that caped tuxedo. A shiny, black knight in an amazing sports car! Whooee! Now that is a hot date!
Dump - Spiderman. Ooey, gooey stuff always on his hands! His leotards are way too tight! The least attractive of the three!
3. Marry - Clark Gable. Are you kidding me? Suave, debonair, great dresser, knows how to get through enemy lines to rescue you, has money when the South is going up in flames, wants to take you away from it all, can have his heart broken by rejection. And those smoking eyes, that look across a crowded room, that crooked smile! Need I say more! (The bad breath thing - would definitely have to remedy that!)
Date - Cary Grant. Love that accent, knows his way around, always impeccable in his appearance, very funny to be with, can carry on a fascinating conversation intelligently, totally handsome, famous and wealthy. Could I ask for more from a good date?
Dump - John Wayne. Sorry, N.T. This was a hard choice for me. Maybe because John is really more of a man's man. He has to always hang with the guys, or his horse, or be off fighting in some cause, busting up bars, etc. He is the kind of guy you can only admire from afar, 'cause he is not going to hang around any place very long. Love that grin though, when you can get him to smile!
