First time this morning:  I click on 'System Preferences' in the dock.  After 
30 or 40 bounces without opening, I click on it and hold the click.  The 'Force 
Quit' is lit, so I click on 'Force Quit'. It quits bouncing.

Try the same thing again:

Click on 'System Preferences' in the dock.  One bounce and it opens.

Strange stuff!

Is there a .plist file somewhere corrupted?

Likely. Try moving ~/Library/com.apple.systempreferences.plist to the Desktop ("~" is your user folder, /Users/username).

P.S.  Please don't cc me, I get the list so that is redundant.
