I think my people hit New York basically just before the famine, which probably gave them the opportunity to lord it over new arrivals. There was still contact with Auld Country relatives during my father's childhood, so I'd probably know if the name was screwed with (I got this annoying love for detailing the Family Immigration Stories from him). But I do tend to forget if I don't think about it that Dad didn't know the actual person who came over - his other three grandparents were all immigrants.

Well then this is obviously my answer. You know, you count as black if you're at least 1/8th black. So you don't even have to look it to be it.

Oh, okay. But that movie about exchange students offers a better solution. With Heather Graham.

Do you really believe there is no drugs in the White house? Or does the White House has so much drugs that will make any drug lord envy?
