I think you're right Klondike.
"Fat does not seem to exist on women over there. I wonder if the Russians even have a term for "fat". BTW - one nice thing about rising food prices these days is that it might help the rest of us get a handle on obesity. There is reason for hope...."
The babooshka stereotype must have been dirty cold war propaganda. There mustn't have been any other way to get the public behind the nuclear option. Girls like these put "da tent" in detente.
Regarding the fat thing: it's a most serious trade deficit we've got with them. They're selling all of it to us.
Don't get me wrong, fat is the magic ingredient for lovely curves. Morbid obesity is killing us, you're right.

(Hey, it's the political season)
P.S. I'm pretty bad with thanking people for their efforts. You're a true champ of this forum, and I'm not just saying that outta regional pride.
