10th century english, traced back to Northumberland England, 12 years of records and about 3 grand later reports a long line of royalty serving under William the conqueror.

i think you would have to ask someone who knows about these things.
When I was over in Korea I was always referred to as a "2nd generation Korean" (direct translation) and those who naturalized to another country were known as "1.5 generation". Might just be a Korean thing.

Yeah 2nd generation just seems to make more sense. Both of my parents still have their Polish citizenship. My grandpa was going to leave about 3 acres of property to my dad but he didn't want to pay taxes on it. I wanted to see if I could get it since he didn't want it but in order for me to get it I would need to become a Polish citizen and learn to read/write in polish. I told my grandpa to give it to my cousin who is still living in Poland who is only 4. :P

96/198 can be reduced to 48/99. How stoned are you?

I sucked at fractions :X I always liked the even ones because I could just keep dividing in half. ****ing threes.
