My Earliest Heartthrobs

Ahhh youth! I was talking with a good friend last night about who our earliest heartthrobs were and even though I'm a bit younger than he we both started naming some of the same men. By the end of the evening we were laughing so hard, I couldn't stop coughing. Funny how a heartthrob in 1970 could cause a woody and today the same person can cause fits of hysteria.

In no particular order, here are some of those hunky men who caused me all sorts of thrills, chills, and embarassment (it's hard hiding a boner in your livingroom)!

Jack LaLane: Fitness guru and host of "The Jack LaLanne Show (1951)














Steve Reeves: Mr. American (1947, Mr. Universe (1950) and actor best known as Hercules (1957).

















Lloyd Bridges: Actor and star of Sea Hunt.















Michael Landon: Actor and star of Bonanza as Little Joe.


















Robert Conrad: actor and star of The Wild Wild West
