Re: Friday Funnies...a bit early



Here in Virginia, they're all related to Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson or
some other Confederate hero.  And they all want to tell me exactly *how*
they're related!!

My husband has a theory that a lot of genealogizing is sort of a
middle-class-white-person backlash against diminution of identity through
the rise of American diversity ... sort of like NASCAR, or gun shows.

I loved it.  Number 9 was my favorite, I would put the word Cherokee
into it.  It seems like every fifth persons great grandmother was a
Cherokee Princess.
