An Italian person.

That kind of stuff gets thrown around all the time in ethnically diverse neighborhoods - always in fun. I should say got thrown around, we live in sensitive times now. Can only joke around with old school people these days. By the way, I was made an honorary guinea by an old girlfriend's father - his words, not mine.

That's a noble and worthy thing you have in mind. An organization called World Vision claims they take your money and take care of a specific kid with it. They send you a photo, tell you his or her birthday, give periodic progress reports, etc. I did that for awhile a few years ago until I began to suspect the whole thing was a fiction. I forget why I thought that, it was quite awhile ago. Maybe I was completely wrong....if I come across anything I'll certainly let you know.

I wouldn't know about kids, I take care of winos and dogs....
