1. Ok. That was cool.

2. Saw that the other day

It kind of blows my mind that people are so nervous about finding out what ethnicities are part of their DNA. I'm so used to thinking of myself as a mutt (mom was a little bit of everything), and a strong proponent of evolution (we all have a common ancestor) that while I would like to have my DNA examined, if there were any major surprises in there, it wouldn't affect me much. But as long as it helps promote tolerance, it's a good thing.

explorers, or just plain wanderers. Just for shits and giggles, I've toyed with the idea of spending a C note just to see how nomadic my family really was.
