uh...my only contribution to this conversation (as it has evolved to this point) is to say, I think "cutie-pie" is a very sweet and endearing term...

and to say that I have not been called "cute" in many years; other kind compliments, yes, "cute," no...makes me nostalgic, actually, for my youth...(blush)

speaking of which, fine wine does grow finer with the years, and a young man's vigor and stamina are not necessarily more desirable than an older gentleman's, uh, experience and wisdom...however, both have their advantages, provided the individual involved is up to the task...
