  • That says it all! It's also why we are such swarthy people. I remember being in Florida once, and we were swimming in the pool to the disgust of the locals. Mind you, it was 70 degrees, and a sunny day. They thought we were lunatics...which of course we were.

  • SWARTHY?

  • oops, I guess swarthy means dark skinned! How about brawny instead?
    Yeah, that would work. Swarthy was from Saturday Night Live, when Jon Lovitz, as Michael Dukakis, said something like, "I come from swarthy people". I thought it meant scrappy, or burly, or brawny. Boy, was I wrong. Have a nice day!
