I want to be Stephanie I destory cars almost as fast as she does. And like her its not always my fault. But I think I would be Connie minus the mustache.
I'd love to be Lula. She's confident in her skin, she's funny and full of love and life. Stephanie wouldn't be Stephanie without her. Yes I know I'd get Tank in the deal but then I'd find out what she has with him!!!
Well, I was going to say Stephanie too...because I am definitly accident prone enough to resemble her, and those food cravings are frighteningly familiar. But as many of us are channeling an inner Stephanie, I think I will look to channel my inner Connie. Why? Because who wouldnt wan't to be a ballsy "broad" in charge of a bails bond office? Think of the power! The prestige! The "broad" appeal(and I don't mean width)Just let me pull out my Mae West persona and maybe I could pull it off.
Though I have to agree with Michael, that the female mustache is a major drawback.
I'd have to definitely go with being Steph. The idea of having two very hot men after men... Yeah i'd enjoy that part alone.
I would definitely want to be Stephanie. She gets to have all these crazy adventures and then gets to go home to Morelli. What could be better?

Stephanie does get to hang with both Morelli and Ranger...
I think I would like to be Ranger just because he is a bad ass bounty hunter and can take anyone out in seconds.
At times I already feel like Stephanie due to the amount of cars we both seem to go through. But to actually have Ranger and Joe to choose from would be a nice change of pace.
I'm already a little bit like Lula to pick her, even though she's my fav character.I like Stephanie but her indecisiveness over Joe and Ranger drives me crazy. As the reader, I love them both too, but it bothers me that she isn't faithful to Joe. Not to make this so serious but if you've ever been in the unfortunate situation of having to choose between two men, you'll find that it's not really as great as you might think, even if the men are Morelli and Ranger. I've been there and it really sucks! It's very painful and there's always someone, including yourself, who's going to get hurt. So, for that reason I wouldn't want to be Stephanie either.
Grandma Mazur rocks and even though I love cookies, I hate funerals! So that makes her a no.
So, I think I'd have to say that I'd either want to be Diesel or Bob. Bob because -- well, because he's Bob! I'd love to lead a dog's life. Although Stephanie's gonna kill him with the food she feeds him, so maybe not Bob. :-O
So, it's Diesel then, because he's sort of a superhero and only shows up every once in awhile. Popping in and out of people's lives would be good for me. Yes, I choose Diesel. I'd love to be an "Unmentionable." :-S
I’d be Bob the dog. He’s always so happy and he gets to sleep a lot.
haha Janet - it would be fun to be an "unmentionable"But I think it would be the most fun to be Ranger himself! Imagine, getting to find out where the bat cave actually is, and being tough enough that people are scared of you. Plus, you get to drive whatever type of brand new car you want. as long as it's black of course. I think that is a pretty sweet deal.
I am def a Stephanie although my figures more like Lula. But because I am fat girl who knows just becasue they make it in your size doesnt mean you should wear it. So Lula bothers me because of that even though I still love her.
I guess I would select Grandma Mazur. I am sure that Janet must have met my Grandma and built Grandma Mazur's character around her.LOL! In her 70's she was wearing mini skirts and driving a convertable. My Mom took after her Mom and told me to take notes so I would know how to act when I reached my golden years. With both of them as teachers, I have lots of notes.
My Grandma was on a road trip one time when her "man friend" made her mad about something so when he got out of the car to get something out of the trailer, she drove off and left him in the middle of the road. No she did not go back for him.
LOL SOUNDS LIKE MY GRAMS TOO. SHE WAS A FEISTY ONE. WE LOST HER 2 YEARS AGO BUT THE DAY SHE DIED SHE WAS AT A WINE AND CHEESE TASTING THAT SHE DROVE HERSELF TOO AT 88 YEARS OF AGE .
It was tough deciding between Bob or Rex. Both are totally loved, well-stuffed with goodies, and never get hurt. I think I'll go with Rex--he doesn't have to hold his bladder until Morelli gets home from work and never has the runs from eating anyone's underwear.
Of course...Stephanie! We tend to have the same coordination and luck (or lack there of)! I also have strong feelings and convictions about crime, but a little scared of big mean criminals! The exception of similarity would be...no hesitation when it came to Morelli or Ranger!!! I am a little more impulsive.
I'd definitely be steph; adventures, cars, food, men... but i'd be completely faithful to Morelli though..
I'd have to be Morelli lol. That way there's no choosing over guys. lol And I have my own house and Grandma Bella would love me.
I think I would love to be grandma because she seems like she has a lot of fun. Although Stephanie has the 2 cool guys fighting over her.
Stephanie so I could jump Ranger's bones!!!! But grandma would be fun too!!!
Stephanie, many have found plenty of reasons to not b e stephanie but i am a good liar, have good instincts, and love all the 3 of the men in her life as well as her! one of you said it is hard to choose between 2 men, but she doesnt really have to choose. diesel will never be more than... someone that pops up every now and then, ranger is not marriage matrerial. so that leaves morreli as the final choice in the end. besides the sexy men, i would LOVE the excitment and criminal chases, one day i even want to persue my dreams of being a bounty hunter...
Grandma...I have a sense of humor like that, lol
Even though Stephanie is constantly having bad things happen to her I would love to be her. She always has something interesting or some case that even though it goes wrong comes out with something exciting happening! And who wouldn't want the options of men that she has.
Hard to chose who I would want to be, but I know for sure who I would NOT want to be...like Vinny, or Mamma Mac, or anyone working at Cluck in a Bucket. I would probably want to be Rangers shower gel. Although Bob has got it pretty darn good too.

It would certainly be interesting to be him and find out what he is really all about

I would be Stephanie, just so I could choose Ranger. Morelli is too much work. He's hot, he's sweet, but he is constantly trying to change her. Grandma would be fun, but I don't want droopy skin. I love Lula and it would be fun to be her for a day or so. Connie is great, but I don't want a mustache. I wouldn't want to be Bob because I don't want o eat anyone's underwear...lol

I would be Stephanie. I want to be Morelli's cupcake
I would be Stephanie.... Manoso. ;)
Connie is my choice. Younger days I would have picked Stephanie but I couldn't pull that off anymore and I'm not quite ready to be Grandma. Stephanie's mom is just too worn out from Stephanie and Grandma. I have always done Admin work and I identify with Connie. Lula is much more woman than I could ever be. So, yep, Connie.
