Iolanthe, Mozartmaid, Deadly Chakram, DW, and Corrina: Thank you. Thank you, very much. smile

EvelynC, Laura, Vicki, Cris and Corrina: I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who was bothered by Perry's smile in the elevator.

AntiKryptonite, Vicki: Yes, Lois's rise popularity with the male species always made me go 'huh?' a bit, too. This explanation made the most sense to me. I wrote a different explanation for this phenomenon in my Missing Lois story, in which I show another one of Lois's and Clark's past lives as a fairy tale (Sleeping Beauty, of course). One of the gifts bestowed upon Baby Lois by a fairy is the 'gift of adoration.'

Thank you all for the positive feedback. smile1
