"It was definitely 65 MPH (105 KPH) when I crashed my car on I-94 two
years ago.  I'm pretty sure it's 65 on the entire stretch of I-94,
except near cities.  This is, of course, the "maximum" speed limit,
not the "normal" one, since *most* roads are of course far slower. :)"

Yeah, I'm half Norwegian Blond, Half German, the name is basically
Bulgarian, down the Norwegian side.  I am, as my draft card put it
5 feet, 12 inches tall (no joke), dark haired, and bulky.  The Dragon Lady
claims to be 5 foot 2 inches, but my ruler must be broken--I've never found
more than 4'10" of her.--I think she makes it up with sheer ferocity--
I usually have the last words, i.e. "Yes, dear!".

The boys all are tall and will be bigger than Mom for sure, although our
eldest is only 5'9" at present.  His middle brother is bigger than he is.

None of them are "really" oriental-looking, unless you have an artist's eye.

The Dragon Lady also has "double eyelids" as you put it.

All this just proves that you cannot, must not, judge by appearances.

Since my family is rather a bright bunch, active, healthy, and a bit crazy in
a nice way, I also think the genetic mix has been favorable--

Dragon Lady is famous for the line "Smart like me, pretty like you---"
when she speaks to me about the kids---

I KNOW who is in charge at my house-- ;>)

their own lands back and have nothing to do with names other than the ones
that they call themselves.  They've happily coached me to not use
'Indian', either, as they didn't want to keep a label given by an
European, and so I thought I was being careful.

	"And, back to the original subject, it seems the lesson is to be

emotional impact behind them for various folks, and, therefore, I should
have probably choosen less weighted words if I wanted to make absolutely

Jason and Thyra, having greeted Chris, follow the irrepressible Kitten to
where Patch is extracting Beanbag chairs. 

Thyra shifts back to her feline/human form, and says "Hi Patch! Welcome to
the Place!" 

Jason follows, saying "Most wecome indeed! I'm not from the great North
myself, but I do have an uncle who lives up your way, in Anchorage. Glad to
make your acquaintance. Now, what was that you were saying about backrubs?
That's one of my favorite passtimes, when I'm not in cyberspace. Hug?"

instead.  I haven't suffered from such problems as diabeties (?) in my

=Phee cocks her head, and then tugs on StM's sleeve.  In a whisper that is
=possible loud enough to be heard from the other side of the room, she asks
=StM, "Is she O.K.?"

StM answers, "Well, *I* think so, but if your mommy's around, we really ought
to ask her.  If your mommy's not around, I can take you over and introduce you,
but I can't leave you alone with her, and she *STILL* counts as a stranger
until your mommy says otherwise.  OK?"

=while looking at her apple, "you think M&M's would go good on a caramel
=apple?"

StM ponders this for a moment, then answers, "I'm not so sure.  Sounds like
we're getting close to where you won't be able to taste the apple.  But you
could try a couple of M&Ms WITH the caramel apple."
