@ slayton: A more appropriate word please? I can't recall any word that would be better that the word you supposedly do not like... It's not Asian eyes because not all Asians have those kinds of eyes... So yeah, what word? :D And yeah, to add to it, I used the word and I'm a chinese myself.

How about "slanted" or "almond shaped?"

One of the racers, Michael Naylor, is a former prison guard and police detective.  His brother, Christopher Naylor, a downtown parking lot attendant, was shot and killed in December of 1995.  The murderer was sentenced to life in prison in 1997.  Sad story.

I'll go with slanted eyes -- it's easier that way.  And yeah, not all Asians have slanted eyes -- I think Chinese, Japanese and Koreans are more likely to have slanted eyes.  If the Asian females are Vietnamese American, then they're less likely to have slanted eyes unless they were of Chinese ancestry (there are some Vietnamese Americans who are of Chinese ancestry -- I was friendly with three of them who were being fostered by an old family friend of mine).

I remember hearing somewhere that "chink" was a contemptuous word
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move

Howdy partner!





I'm pretty sure this is Jet and Cord McCoy in this picture.  They are both rodeo cowboys.

Approved   :cmas16

Nice work Jack.  And thanks.  They were really nice dudes at LAX.

Just before that picture was taken I silent mouthed:   "YOU  GUYS  ARE  SO  LUCKY"  up at them.  They both smiled and simultaneously tipped their hats back at me!

I am going to DM Steven from BB10 on twitter and ask him if he knows the cowboys since he is in the rodeo circuit.

In this article from 1998 Jet and Cord are 19 and 18, so I would guess they are 30 and 29 now.

Cord's PBR bio says 8/19/80, so yes, he is 29.
