One thing is for certain: When I visit Sweden and Finland, there is no way I'll be able to blend in with the locals!

Good! I wouldn't want to miss you when you finally come.

My husband and daughter have green eyes, my son and I have blue eyes. We all originally have some kind of blondish/light brownish hair colour although I often dye my hair dark brown. And Mr J has turned grey already. (very handsome imho )

If you become an expert at flying in Microsoft Flight Simulator, could you fly a real passenger aircraft, theoretically speaking?

They tested that theory on a TV show using a light aircraft. The guy did pretty well, but he chickened out of doing the landing at the last moment.

You're traveling down a dangerous road there, if you keep going on like this then one day you'll realise that like the darkness to the light you can't exist without The Thread.
