I can't stand the heat, I prefer cold. Everything over 30 degrees (C) is overkill if you ask me. But perhaps it's different in a different climate

American. My parents and theirs were American...but if you want to know my ancestral blood: it's Scottish on my dad's side ("the Motleys"), Italian and German on my mom's side.

But yeah...sometimes my dark skin makes me look like a lighter-skinned Indian (India), somewhat middle-eastern, and maybe...Italian?

One of my little sisters thinks I look like Dinesh D'Souza

I'm getting cold looking at the third one. It's cold outside and then you're walking around with your coat open...
Have you seen the pics I put on Facebook by the way? I also posted some pics of my trips to Kyoto and Okinawa. If anyone else is interested in those, PM me for the link. The album also contains pics of my family, so I won't post the link here.

Hector I believe this is the first pic of you that I have seen and I have to say it looks good; if looks were a bullet, you would be...birdshot?

Oh and the reason why I did the Achilles impersonation was not just cuse ah yous; it is the way I feel about neocons (which you are, go ahead and admit it) in general. (oh..and i always wanted to do that)

As an entmoot brother, I guess I got some love for yah...barely.

did I say good pic.

From the TROY movie. I think I remember that part...

I prefer "theocon" Sounds more evil and dangerous than "neocon".

Hey now, you and I don't have all that many clashes. I defended Ron Paul against mainsteam conservatives who thought he was a nut.

I have some pictures of me and my family online for my friends in Japan so they can finally see the things I kept telling them about. They are only visible for people with permission, but apparently a direct link works as well. The pictures of Kyoto, Okinawa and Nagasaki are mostly landscapes, flowers, cats, etc. Some very good wallpaper material there as well

Haha, if you ever go, make sure you go in Fall. Fall in Kyoto is beautiful!

Hector, thanks!
