re: [fists on hips e]
Shouldn't that be [arms akimbo e]?
or are you thinking of your arms, behind you, and your fist resting in your hips as if to do a fast draw on your (imaginary) six shooter?
just a little nit i felt like picking!

Shortly after WWI, I used to go on train past big saltmarsh just north of Boston, on way to
visit my grandmother, and see dozens of surplus trainer biplanes whose designation was JN3,
and were nicknamed "Jennies".

As you know, a lot of people visit AWADtalk quite often, but never post. One of them sent me an e-mail telling me about a very valuable US stamp, which has a picture of the airplane upside down. Famous among stamp collectors. He sent me this URL: http://www.glassinesurfer.com/f/gsinvertedjenny.shtml I don't have OK to give his name.

Mules as hybrids are only very rarely able to have foals. BBC has story about one that did.
Well look at that, it's a quarter horse.
