Paul Kennedy, flattery will get you everywhere! (I once had an English
teacher who told me that when you write, pretend that you are allowed to use
only three exclamation points in your entire lifetime. That way, you will
use them sparingly and only when they are completely necessary. This, I
think, is one of those occasions.)
As for what I look like, I was once described as having troll-like features.
(Of course, that was the stellar opinion of my younger brother, who wasn't
too fond of me during our teenaged years.)

Factual inaccuracies? Fiddlesticks. I merely stated that you, Paul, were
NOT dressed like a diamond merchant. Rather, that despite the picture that
I'd formed in my head, (courtesy of one Mr. Scottie Bowman) that I could
mistake you for none other than Mr. Paul Kennedy. Idealist. And young
Catherine, with her ballet-dancer stance and _Onion_ Newspaper, was
unmistakable as well.
Yes, it was worth it. Even if Paul doesn't like the way I drive. (Like any
Chicagoan worth her salt, that is. Apparently they bicycle everywhere in
Toronto.) And I did a lovely job of pointing out the U-Boat, in honOR of
Ed. I only hope that I can convince Paul to forget the Expos (everyone else
has) and throw in his lot with the Cubs. Cheers, mate.
Regards,
Cecilia.
