I agree with you. All you said is true. I do believe He was the hottest man that ever lived. I have not found any other man that I loved as much as Michael Landon. I would like to add. That Michael Landon once said Himeself NO ONE is perfect. I think if He would of lived his life like He did on screen, He would of been perfect... But that is not possible because the only one on earth that has ever been perfect is Jesus Christ!
