Alright, a lot of times, someone's cultural bloodlines can actually tell
you a lot about them. The classic stereotypes being Irish = drunk, Scot =
violent, Brit = snooty, Canadian = uh..., French = romantic and hot if your
a chick, kinda' fruity if your a guy...and so on and so forth. Now
generally of course, this stereotypes are nothing more than that...but
occasionally there is some truth to them, cultural bloodlines are an
important and interesting part of someones genetic-psychological profile. I
wanna' know what your bloodlines are, and what they say about you.
Now me, I have a healthy chunk of Eastern European, Irish and more than a
little Blackfeet American, near as I can figure, I have a dark sense of
humor, a tendancy to get wasted and musical, and in fights...I go in
screaming and come out with a scalp or two (and yes I know the Americans
started that practice, the Feets just perfected it). But those are the only
three I know of, the rest of my bloodline is kinda' smokey. So how about
everybody else...
I've got a running bet in my head that we have more than a little
Scot-Irish bloods around.

I'm mostly English, with a solid dose of French and Scottish.
My cousins are descended from a cannibal. They hate to admit it, but they
would not be alive today if their ancestor hadn't snacked on his shipmate!

Thanks Mono. I never really considered myself any good at spin. Hmmm...
Lemme try again... "George W. Bush is a strong-willed man, never failing to
advance our manifest destiny worldwide despite countless attempts by blind
environmentalists and head-in-the-cloud humanitarians to foil him"
Alright, I may be good at spin, but I'd rather laugh at them than join
them.
Politicians bite, no matter what side they're on.

Oh great...so now you tell me. I didn't know I could make up crap on the
census and get away with it. So now I have to wait 8 years to make up
crap. Nice.

Well, I don't have any pirates in my family line, but according to my
grandmother my family can be traced back to the jersey devil, or at least
the woman who spawned her. For those of you who don't know the story the
jersey devil goes something like this....
A young girl was dating a british officer in somewhere near leeds point NJ.
The romance was discovered and the girl was cursed. The child conceived
from the union was born a devil, who sprang up after the delivery and ran
into the woods, where it terrorizes people of NJ to this day. The jersey
devil has numerous descriptions, from having a horse head, devil horns,
wings and a forked tail, to just being a regular old demon.
Considering how psychotic my mother is (and occasionally how psychotic I
myself am), I'm inclinded to believe this is true. And well, it's
interesting enough, anyway.

It was RAD.

of our mighty battle cry of YHARG! We'll sink yuppie yahts (spelled?),
we'll vanquish fishing trollers, and pillage the booty of the North West
fairies! No...boats, jackass, boats.

That's some mighty fine spin doctoring there, Ironboots. If you are not
pursuing a career in the political arena, you just might be missing your
calling.
As for the piracy, I will sign up as well. All my pillaging has been done
on land and I could use a change of pace. I can swab a deck, chant a
shanty, and shiver me timbers... all with a long, sharp knife between my
teeth. Let's all go terrorise the seven seas and a couple of Great Lakes
while we're at it! Aaaaaahrrr!

I'm scotch Irish, part german, some other stuff here and there, basicly,
I've been told that I'm everything but french. I don't know if that's a
better thing for me or the french though.
I like to drink, I've got a bad temper, I love music, and I'm the most pig
headed stubborn man alive.
don't know if that makes me sterotypical or not.
As to the pirating, Jessie James is a cousin(a little distant mind you) of
mine, and I'm guessing that robbing trains and plundering sea going vessals
can't be all that differant. Can I join the crew?
Can I, please please please?

Wow, Monolycus... That's some history. I suppose you'd be enterprising (the
dutch), hard-working (german), and trusting, balanced by a good
old-fashioned sense of revenge (Mingo).
But I think you're just really smart.
Back to pirates, there's a group of them at Brown University. They're a
performing group which sings sea chanties (shanties?) and drinking songs. A
wonderful group, I'd assume, as I've never met them. www.arrr.net

To avoid confusion, I listed my race on the last US census survey as
"Demigod".
