Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Hey, what number is the ancestory discussion?
I don't know, but it always makes me feel like I should know more than I do. I know that each grandparent was 1/4 or more Irish and that 3 of them had a good percentage of Native American, of which I am only certain of Pawnee.
DH's family is one hundred percent Irish, or so I'm told.
My family is pretty strictly British, Scottish, and Irish. I think my maternal grandmother had a bit of German and Italian in there from somewhere, but I'm not sure.
And my paternal grandmother had some ancestry search done to prove that we're related to Daniel Boone. I have shunned coonskin, though.
Most Canadians I know, while they wouldn't call themselves North American, do accept that they are. It would be odd not to, I'd think.
No argument there, but in practice, it is the sort of thing one refers to as often as "western hemispherian".

Those of us who are not North American, yet are western hemispherian look at you funny.
All of us.
Right now.
Can you feel the eyes on you?
Uhm, Plei, is your legal last name the one you go by and the one you would prefer to see on an envelope addressed to you, rather than the name you use here?
Not that I'm asking for any particular reason or anything. Pure idle curiosity here.
It looks like an art installation.
It sort of is. In the art as political sense:
The project Femdefence is an attempt to contribute to the debate on men’s sexual violence against women in society, using the esthetics of design, and the semiotics of marketing.
Femdefence is an on-going project first presented in 2003. The project includes the creation of an imaginary product, which bears the project’s name. >[link]ION, I got exciting mail when I got home. Claim for in a settlement. Whee! Free money! Except my ethics kinda tell me no. Leave the money for those claiments who were actually hurt by the thing that lead to the suit in the first place. Boo ethics.
I'm mostly German/French/English. Hubby's grandparents emigrated to the US from Germany in the early 1920's so the kids are mostly German on both sides. BUT I am 5th generation Californian and that's pretty rare (my dad's family were part of the original settlers in the Owens Valley).
Gosh it's beautiful here today. The boss had to make me come back in the office after lunch. He's being very mean.
I declare this moment to be the, "Everyone still at work gets to go home right now" moment.
So, if you're still at work, join me in pissing on The Man's shoes and enjoying what's left of this beautiful day.
Can you feel the eyes on you?
Um, no? But I'm glad I put pants back on.
I declare this moment to be the, "Everyone still at work gets to go home right now" moment.
How does this apply to those of us who are just about to go to work?
