Unfortunately, the sense of fashion within a certain ilk of young and some old women these days is tattoos, pink or blue hair and putting on tons of weight deliberately to then turn around and complain that they're being fat shamed. Very sad.

While perhaps forever relegated to that grey zone between fact and myth, fable or lore, it has been said that Spanish men are known for having big feet. In a 1657 dustup with a group of misguided Germans it is said even after being run through with a 7-foot spear, many Spanish soldiers remained standing for several minutes. My sister once dated a Spaniard and can confirm that at least in this one case the myth is true for his feet were of impressive length with a double E width to boot.

Great vocal duo: the Julio Iglesias and Willie Nelson classics. Thanks for the reminder.

Calla, always the dreamer. Thing is, those dreams always have some basis in the reality of her charming life. Is my jealousy showing?

Self-confession is good for the soul, Glenn. We are lucky we get to share Calla's journeys and reminiscences. Arm-chair traveling can be just as much fun. Without the packing, air port security lines, dodgy stomachs, depleted bank accounts, and jet lag.
