Moreover I like her voice and her sense of color.
I'm very particular about these things.
And moreover my hands look exactly like hers.
I hate ugly hands and dirty fingernails.
I use to imitate my father's handwriting and my favorite professors.
It's like when I "met" my latest anesthetis who was about to knock me out for a medical procedure. The nurse had already put in the IV on the back of my left hand.
This anethetist was chatting with me about 7 minutes as he wheeled me to Theater One--at "Good Samaritan."
As he injected the anesthesia in, I have no idea what it was, he said,
"Beautiful hands,"
So I boasted a bit. He's not the only expert in this very cold and very bright room.
"Yes," I said, spreadingmy fingers, "very good at arts and crafts."
My elder cousin Ko Too,the model for my story Black Belt, also admired my hands when I was 8 or so.
"Like candles", he said.
Ko Too himself was a really good-looking man.
All my relatives were. Tank corp commander trained at Fort Knox.
