My Dad is from Brooklyn, my mom was from Australia.

My Dad still has a thick new yawk accent. He looks like some WOP gumba Mafioso type.

He's about as Irish as they get.

I knew Chow's dad before I met Chow. I would have sworn he was New York Italian, lol.

He's pretty entertaining, lol.

Yeah, I know you know Chow, and that he didn't mean anything by that.

I'm with you on that one and I just made the mistake of visiting "The Italian Thread".
Yes I know you all warned me but you that whole moth to the flame story....yes, that would be me and yes it did hurt and no I am not proud of it (but I left a response anyway...LOL)

I'm not sure how mixed the part from my Grandmother is though, she was born and raised in Germany and not a citizen until she was much older. Came over on the boat did Ellis Island and all of that.
My Grandfather is Cherokee but I really don't know what else has been tossed in that biological salad. Unfortunately neither of them really talked about the Elders so we don't know much family history.

I love hanging out with older people, their stories etc, way more entertaining.

Lol - I'm Australian
I'm sure I'll offend people well before they'll offend me

We use the term "wog"

Oh, I agree. I've always spent a lot of time around older people, even as a kid.

Lol!!
