Perhaps because the name ends in a vowel (it means "local person" in Hawaiian, where I lived when I joined DU).

I find it oddly disorienting when I'm wrong. Even after I'm corrected I occasionally forget who is what.

It could be dark blond but not a light blond.

Though I prefer short, because I'm petite myself.

When I got to college I found out about smart ones (science/engineering/math majors) who were also crazy musicians. I used to date fiddlers I met in orchestra (viola, cello or bass players).

Clue: The guy in my avatar who has a Ph.D. in Astrophysics, so you should call him "Dr. May".

My other celebrity crush is Lewis Black. I've met him in person after one of his gigs, and he's adorable and has a total aura of "nice person radiating force field of charisma".

At my age I don't see very many men who impress me with their talent and charisma. Another one with charisma is Paul Stookey.

Asian, Latin, Black haired Celtic, it didn't matter to me.

So who do I end up marrying? A blue-eyed German blonde woman. Never try to second-guess fate, because you'll lose.

I think short people are often dominated by tall men. In fact, some tall men admit that they enjoy intimidating other people.

I had a tall mother, a tall grandmother, a taller than average dad (five-eleven, big strong man at 180 lbs), uncles on both sides that were six foot two and skinny--so what happened to me?

Five foot two and small bones. I'm a mini me version of Mom, she had small bones, but just taller & bigger frame.

Attractive is in the eye of the beholder; some women think I'm attractive, others don't.

But I really have to wonder ...

Am I sulky?
