You never get it wrong? Most of the time it's obvious, sometimes it's not.

I agree. Nikuman's comment made me wonder where he lives. Here in the Bay Area, I can get it right about 75% of the time, but the melange is too great for the other 25% of the time.

Mostly Irish with English/Scottish/German mixed in as well.

RockyBalboa · 07-07-2007, 09:27 PM

English from my Moms side and Swedish from my Dads side.

I think I'm 25% Swedish actually.

I've been wrong once that I can remember. I usually don't ask unless I'm sure, though, and there have been a few times I wasn't sure.

1/4 English
1/8 Welsh
1/8 Scottish
1/4 Corsican
1/4 Danish

Being adopted, I had to get a court order to open up the adoption file to get my medical history and I also learned about the various nationalities from which I came.

Apparently, the egg donor got around. I was her 2nd of three children born out of wedlock and put up for adoption. Freaking hippies.
