>>and actually, not meaning to boast … well, better not;<<

Speaking purely rationally, may I say "hubba hubba"?-g-

It's the unregenerate female in me. I am a sucker for a studly man. -g-

Growing up in New Orleans, I am supposed to be "white" - I got some kind of kick out of the claims of the black Creoles that they were lighter than white - lighter than me - it's true - some do have blue eyes - mine are brown - and so it goes - - - -

Hi Jay,

'Hakka' Maybe you're related to our Governor General ?

My family name is one of those most common of Chinese family names and as far as I know we're just plain old plain old from Canton area.

'Yolanda Chen, close to my age, a world triple jump champion and one-time Russian Playboy Cover Girl'
My youngest sister (borderline gen-X) was an Olympic figure skater, not a medalist but never a bunny to my knowledge ;o).

'I myself look Filipino if I am in Asia, and American Indian if I am in Ecuador, but with big round eyes, darker skin, especially after 3 hours of sun, '
That's my dad and sisters. It takes me about almost a week to make a complexion change from behind blue green eyes, but it's pretty severe when the basting is done.

'Chinese moms used to whisper to each other how light, handsome and plump their kids were'
I know many Hong Kong girls who almost exclusively flee the sun fo that very reason (I'm talking my age group so I guess they're not no longer girls and I don't know about the current crop).

'a smorgasbord of girls, girls and more girls'
The only thing more eclectic than my taste in music is my taste in women LOL.
My first flame's dad was a black Jamaican with I believe a touch of Scottish and Chinese to boot and her mom a Polish Jew. First real friend I ever had that had a more diverse makeup than I.

' I just stare at mom, make a face, and say nothing:0)'
The greatest thing my father ever did for me was to ensure that I was not burdened with his prejudices, which in my mind is no small feat.

'My in-laws adore me'
Mine absolutely hated me, to the extent that my wife (we knew each other as far back as 1974) received the foulest of letters from her father upon hearing the name of her new boyfriend. Something about little Chinamen running around his house.... We thought it was under the bridge but my son's features have made that letter a reality and it's funny how some people never grow. Their loss.

'some boys with lots of metal pierced through their body parts' ......ROTFL...
Cheeks, lips, eyebrows or more than 10 in one ear tend to discourage me.

'unless of course they bring back boys.'
I think the metal would discourage more :0)

regards
Kastel
