There was an Asian woman sitting next to me this morning on the bus, studying a little notepad that had English-Chinese (?Japanese?) translations on it. Just little handwritten columns of random handwritten words in English next to a column of words in characters. I happened to notice the last word on the page she was studying.

"Fluffer (n.)"

I guess that's entirely possible. But I would imagine that's the type of job where you don't really need to know how to say much...

Well, the word immediately before WAS "sticky" I believe. Unfortunately, I guess that applies either way.

I'll email you. I have written notes to tide you over pre-phone-talk.

It was hopefully a tragic error on her part.
