I think she meant that people who gossip are small-minded, which I am not sure is true. Most of us enjoy a bit of gossip. The Roosevelts and Churchills would've been at the receiving end of a lot of gossip, but they rose above most of it and enjoyed enduring success.

Which Mary are you speaking of? One of these? http://www.luminarium.org/encyclopedia/queenmary.htm or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary,_Queen_of_Scots
And which James? My brother the drummer? or the Daddy and child reunion? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_VI_and_I
Of course there always Jesus' brother and their mother, or with Jesus' girlfriend, Mary Magdelene...post-mortem.

Of course you are right and I should have caught that...though it may have flown past our international Contributors. Sorry for the smarmy stuff...
