I was born in America, both of my parents were born in America. And all four of my grandparents were born in America. I think that makes me an American.

QUOTE(closeup3 @ Jun 2 2006, 03:52 PM) I was born in America, both of my parents were born in America. And all four of my grandparents were born in America. I think that makes me an American. Before the advent of DNA, I think the above would be a valid answer. But now, we can (if we can afford it), trace our exact ethnic lineage. There was a story today about a Florida accountant who was confirmed via DNA to be related to Genghis Khan. I think I would want him representing me if I ever had to be audited by the IRS. So, Closeup3, the most your parents and grandparents remembered about their distant origins was the American part of it?

Better explained hereAnd plus Genghis Khan was a genetic jackhammer, didn't he father half of Europe

QUOTE(Gnappster @ Jun 7 2006, 07:02 PM) yeah I am a trivia nerd too. I think because I like to know lots about everything, but I don't have the attention span to be an expert on any of it haha. I started checking out the Straight Dope back when they had a show on A&E years ago and then they moved to AOL and finally to the net. I like reading all the Straight Dope books and Imponderables and all those books of useless info. Funny, I thought you were the American Gnappster. I found the Web site a few years ago when I was looking for the answer to the "33" on the back of the rolling rock beer bottle. random thought: do they offer AOL in Canada or is it COL? Shameless need for attention: Okay, I thought this was a funny post and it got no play cuz we posted at the exact same time and it got lost. either that or it's not as funny as I thought it was.
