Little Hawk, I liked the book better too, because I liked how it told the story from the Chief's point of view. That's totally lost in the movie.

I married a tall skinny guy. But I think John Goodman is way sexy. And Danny DeVito, too, in an elfish sort of way.

Everyone has a different idea of what they think is beautiful. A friend of mine was always going on about how picky he is about women, blahblahblah... then I saw a picture of his ex-wife. I did not think she was pretty at all, but apparently at one time he did. I refrained from making any catty comments. :-)
