OK. But at the risk of being annoying, does anybody have a reasonable suggestion for "50-year-old-hobbit-lady"? Gentlehobbit... hobbitess? argh... Hobbit-lady seems so awkward, but I'll use it if I have to, although Hobbitess has a certain appeal.

I've always used "Hobbit" for nondescript males and frequently fall back on Gentlehobbit for politer moments... suggestions welcome.

Hey, I've gone past 1000 posts.

Mith, did you bust yourself or were you busted??
