Well, demographics seem to be floating around. Might as well see where we're all from, eh?

Just answer the poll and specify what the province/state/fiefdom and follow it up with the city/town/fallout bunker.

I'm from a little offshoot of Ottawa called Kanata in that humble province we all know of as Ontario. You know, the one that the frenchmen love to hate so much. ;)

Huh, Ireland seems like such an obvious country to forget. You'd think I'd have scrapped Venezuela, or something, but with my luck, someone from Venezuela would have shown up and given me hell ;)

Then again, let's face it: the most dangerous creature in Ireland is biologically the bumblebee, who couldn't forget Ireland?

If I hear one more cajun tune, someone shoot me....please :wacko:

It's not that I dislike cajun music, but when you've heard one song, you've basically heard them all.....same old chank-a-chank sound....over and over again....

There are two constants in the world. Math & Music. One I detest and only tolerate because I have to count my change now and then to be sure I didn't get, for lack of a better word, cheated.

I have never been cheated with music.

My Jones' are nigh on 400 years in these United States. But the rest of me? Well, lets just say Scot/Irish/Anglish (in that order) and Dutch/Franco/German with a pinch of Scandinavian which explains why I appreciate buxom blondes on calendars in auto parts houses and good beer. Of course, the dominate genes lean toward the Celtic end of things. I have never heard a bad bagpipe. And that may be because of the beer. :mrgreen:

In the meantime I am an Ulster-Scot in the hills of Appalachia which is exactly as it should be. :cool:
