While we are glad that the boy has taken on Ainsley's good looks, it seems that Ryan's, shall we say, 'quirky' characteristics all seem to have blame attached to my half of the gene milkshake for some reason. So far I am j'accused for his predisposition to hate sweet potatoes, to be a night owl, to be hot all the time, and to be fond of Ainsleys.

I wonder, however, if I was ever as big a flirt as Ryan is. As much attention as he gets from all walks of life, he seems to respond best and gummiest to the women in his field of view, to include doctors, office mates, cash register checkout people, and -- as we learned the other night -- Sophia Choi, from CNN's Headline News. Broke from commercial, there's Sophia's big face on the T.V., and Ryan breaks into a big How YOU dooin? grin.

Sheesh.
