Hi, Michael - thanks for your comments and info on my "hooking up" article. My daughter, in her 30's and home from her missionary work for a brief period, also just told me that the term's been around longer! I'd hear it, but didn't know it meant what it means now. I am not good at catching on to these oriental haikus, but it must be good because I see you've achieved the highest rating! But I do like the music.
