It's really strange how accents evolve.
Yeah, my grandpa was from Germany, and so I'm sure his accent rubbed off really strongly on my father. I am more than 85% German, 1/8 Irish and 1/16 Scot.
Didn't the drawl evolve more from the French?

I knew we couldn't be that far off Molly!
Supposedly. I must be full of guilt then! As a small child i was speaking german before i spoke English due to grandmaw. Her dad, my great grandfather was born there in what was east germany and oddly enough, he was in WWII in (you guessed it) Germany (he came to ohio as a small boy). Actually had family on both sides of that one. Grandpaw is Cherokee/German and my dads side is too. But hey, this is the melting pot they say

So he was fighting on the American side? Must have been strange.
My grandpa was here before the war, but I know he had a cousin that was a Nazi sympathizer. He was a really odd duck. Black sheep type. Ick.
We are probably related. My grandpa came from what eventually became East Germany too. It's such a small world. My husband has Bohemian blood in him, and that is basically just over the border from where my Grandpa was born into what is now the Czech Rep.
Cherokee, oooooooooh. Indian guys are sexy. I had to watch Dances with Wolves about 1000 times because "wind in his hair" was so fine to look at, haha!
I love ancestry. It's fascinating.
What twisted histories behind us. I find it absolutely fascinating. The wifes people are British ancestry with some Cherokee but she don't look it with her red hair and freckles. Her mom looks like a full indian though, weird huh? Now my grandpaws moms people were here a lot sooner than the rest. His great grandpaw and his brothers and cousins were all in the civil war.

I am Welsh, Cherokee with some French. Both sides of my parents ancestry fought in the Revolutionary War, my one Great, Great, Great one more ? Grandpa under Washington even. I wish I was more native american. I don't believe in what we did to the natives at all.
Sure... go ahead.... trust the government .... just ask any Indian how they'll do ya! Amen to that shyt! They got screwed big time and that's putting it easy.

Of all the words a sociophobe is least likely to believe . . .
Okay, I'm thinkin' about it. Got some ideas. Might read one of my poems or something. Too tired tonight to figure out how it all works, though. Maybe tomorrow. But if I have to set up another @#$%& account on another #$%&@ website to do it, maybe not.
