Huh.  Well maybe I'll get all machoed up and give it a shot!

It's funny that you mention the thing about sophisticated because my
wife and I were having a discussion about the absurdity of American
life.  For example, once we had a formal brunch in Paris with all the
high flootin' hooey and dress that goes along, and then that night we
had hamburgers in Minneapolis at Fuddruckers in sandals and ripped
jeans.

Who doesn't like burgers at Fudd's?

I don't even know what sophisticated is anymore.  David Brookes wrote
a good column about that saying how in the 50s people valued
intellectuals and would aspire to read great books, etc, Scholars like
Einstein were heroes.

Today, few know Brian Greene and NOBODY knows Jack Kilby.  But
everyone knows Jack Welch.  Is Mr. Welch known because he's
sophisticated or rich?  How about Donald Trump?  Would anyone call him
sophisticated?  I wouldn't!
