Coincidentally, the results unlike the other two tests have no unidentified parts of my genome. Oh, brother!

    The Peruvian
    I logged on to Ancestry.com and got lots of info about my mother's family. Already know about my father's family. My snobby great grandmother told her grandkids that her family came over on the Mayflower and then moved to Upper Canada, during the revolutionary wars. This was a point of great great pride for her. She wanted to be "veddy veddy" British. So, I did me some huntin' into her line. Looks like they were Jews (likely Sephardic) who arrived in Upper Canada, from England, in the 1800's.

    I knew that woman was bullshitting. LOL!

    Have you tried Ancestry.com, NAP? Forgive me if I have this wrong. Did you say you were ethnically Mexican?

    lol...you didn't see my earlier post ... I realized it had my name on the CRI Genetics report ... I'm a little reluctant to let the gun carrying crowd know who I am...

    I found my biological families about a year ago. My mother's side is European but as my European genetic % is about 70% split between German, Irish, and with the latest report it is also Italian, Slavic, Spanish and French.

    My Mexican is about 20% which is pretty consistent with Ancestry.com and 23andMe, so is the European for that matter but German was not even mentioned on those two even though the story I was familiar with was that my bio mother was German/Irish. The paternal side was supposed to be Italian but it is more accurately Mexican which I suspect is where the the Spanish and Italian originate from though mixed genes are hard to really nail down conclusively. On this test that is, the other two mentioned that not at all. On both other tests there was an 'untyped' percentage of about 8%. This CRI Genetics thing calls that untyped bit 'Peruvian'. I was laughing because when I bought the kit they required my 'greatest wish for the test'. It aggravated me that they actually forced me to answer that question so I responded that I would like to know if i had any Alien DNA. So they obliged...lol... lo and behold 10% Peruvian. Something that there was absolutely no hint of from Ancestry or 23andMe.

    So OG, 'is your line' Jewish? I'm just curious because I have made some comments about the Old Testament Bible that is not meant as an indictment of practicing Jews or anyone else for that matter.

    My line Jewish? Ummmhhh...well my great great grandmother was, ethnically, I guess. But no way would she have been a practicing Jew. She likely ditched that identity, or had it ditched for her, at birth, in Upper Canada. Heavens, no. Oh my...that would just NEVER do. Canada was far more bigoted than the U.S. ever was. I found bar mitsvah docs for her grandfather in England, and don't know for sure how long they practiced after that.

    Looks like the whole family was itching to get out of England and leave all of their past behind. I think they were Protestants of some kind after that.

    Maybe your ancestors laid out the Nazca lines, huh? Wouldn't that be something? Peruvian!!

    General statement: Unlike over at Project Avalon, where candidate members have to provide a "civilian name" with their application, we here at The One Truth don't always know our members' real names ─ in fact, most of the time we don't.

    As for NotAPretender's name being David ─ and I could be misremembering things, but I'm pretty sure I've seen Fred Steeves address him as "Adam" in earlier times ─ that's a "no", and another "no". His name is neither David nor Adam.

    But I do know his name... <insert scary music>

    When asked why he accepted government assistance, Atlas shrugged.

    The Ayn Rand Institute received a PPP loan of between $350K and $1 million.

    Ayn Rand took government money when she needed it too.

    They say they don't like handouts. But they sure like to take them. They say people on unemployment won't want to work.

    Last I checked, American farmers don't like being paid not to grow crops. They want to work. They want to make an honest living.

    But tariffs, Tariffs, Tariffs!

    Amen ... there is no end to the hypocrisy. Or maybe just very low intrapersonal intelligence.

    Hail, we already have a solution for this problem...Get police to crackdown on the homeless living on the streets...out of sight, out of mind.

    I bought gas today for the 1st time in 4 months...20$ for a full tank.

    Talk about nature taking over civilization, I have squirrels storing food under my car hood.

    My new Avatar is a picture of a chess app I started building. The intent was to create a chess match auto setter. The cite that I play on wouldn't let me have access to their data which put the kabosh on my inspiration... lol, not the 1st time ...

    In Arizona the pack rats get under car hoods and chew on stuff and ruin engines. They're a real problem.
