Subject: himbo



The _himbo_ citation I mentioned earlier is:

(headline) "BEYOND BUFF: He's blond and he's on _Baywatch_, but is David

Chokachi a himbo? Hardly! Here, the inside scoop on the hunk behind the

trunks" by Lori Majewski. _Young and Modern_(magazine, aka _YM_), April,

1996, page 80.

I now realize that this is not a new word (thanks to all who noted the 1988

earliest cite), but several folks have asked for the full citation I had

mentioned, so bear with me, please.
