The Ukranian way.

Got on the elevator this morning along with Andrej, who sits across from me, and a girl of, shall we say, some girth. We all exchanged pleasantries until the girl got off and left Andrej and me alone to ride up one more floor. And then Andrej turns to me, and in his thick Russian accent, he says simply:

She is strong!

Tell me Andrej, what's Russian for awesome?

An old lady at my grandfather's nursing home once looked me up and down with an approving smile on her face and said "MY, you're a beautiful husky young girl!"

Um, thanks?
