    Oh I was being a rascal and giving you a hard time for your English even though it's a second language. 

    It's funny because u said Greece is where he came in 
    Instead and said of where he came to

    The double entendre joke is ... Good thing he came is like saying good thing he ejaculated.
    I was swimming in the Great Barrier Reef 
    Animals were hiding behind the Coral 
    Except for little Turtle
    I could swear he's trying to talk to me

    I got it. The joke was good.
    But loses it's luster when you have to explain it and use the word ejaculated. :lol:

    I assure you it was a joke not aimed to make fun of you, but spunkie just likes the sexual jokes.  =)

    I did 23andMe, and there were no interesting surprises. I am 99.9% British. :disappointed:
    The other 0.1% is Northern African (white).

    To make myself feel better, I will mention that my boring ethnic background actually does contain an absolutely fascinating genealogical/historical background. My genealogy has been meticulously traced through decades of extremely hard work and travel on my mother's side, back to the l2th Century. I've got a direct documented bloodline to Robert the Bruce - he's a great grandfather times however many times along the Stewart line, which means there are many other significant historical figures in the line as well, including James I and II... and including one particularly nefarious one known as the Wolf of Badenach, which i find fascinating. Otherwise know as Alexander Stewart, Earl of Buchan, 4th son of King Robert II. He was a horrible plunderer who deserved the nickname - practically a serial killer in a way. I've got a dark streak, so I have always been interested about that particular ancestor, lol.
    I'm sure many of you are are my distant cousins! Those Stewarts were prolific!
