Oh, no! I never hit any of the total qualifications on any of those lists *sighs*. Still have a couple decades to practice for, though.
That was great fun to read!

Very funny. I always seem to be blathering on about Bill Bryson books but there's a great quote from his friend Katz in one of them - "What I look for in a woman these days is a full set of limbs and a pulse, and I'm prepared to compromise on the limbs."
