Bill Hochstatter/Colfax: After reading your article on the different type of Barbies that one could find in Idaho, I will describe what I saw last summer in Lewiston and suggest that she might be the Lewiston Barbie. As I was driving across one of the bridges from Clarkston to Lewiston, I was following one of those old fat SUVs that had a bumper sticker that said GODDESS ABOARD. At the next light I pulled up beside the SUV and the driver was a bottle blonde with a tattoo on her shoulder and she was smoking a cigar! From my point of view, she sure wouldn't be my definition of a goddess. There used to be a saying that any female looked good when viewed in a moonless night! I enjoy your
column.

DFO: Thanks, Bill; the North Idaho Barbies, courtesy of Patrick/OrangeTV via Bob (Sandpoint Barbie) and an anonymous writer), got quite a reaction. I've had input re: Silver Valley Barbies and a Spokane Barb. Prolly use that in my Saturday print column, too. Welcome to HBO.
