I married a ginger and birthed a ginger. I deserve a medal.

Or disability. Because one is a CMH act of valor. I don’t think we have anything high enough to recognize dealing with two.

Truly uncommon valor ;)

*laugh*.

When the ginger offspring misbehaves I let the ginger spouse handle that. There’s really not enough valium in this world for me to deal with that.

But I have decided to encourage the ginger child to marry a ginger. And have lots of ginger babies. As revenge :P

Looks like they’ve found the ancestor of Soccerus Hooligansus.

I specie can be picked up off the ground, but a race has gotta be run.

My friends used to call my wife “Taz”. At all of 4’10” she used to give them serious abuse when they got her wound up...which they used to do on purpose... Which they usually regretted.

My friends were 6’ 250 pound plus Adirondack lumberjacks.

I feel your pain. In fact, I still feel a lot of pain 20 years later from helping them do it. And I can say all kidding aside, In my seriously misspent youth, I never got hit as hard by any man as hard that little tazmainian devil clocked me ;)

Too funny.

My inlaws do the same thing with my ginger offspring. And leave me to deal with the pain.

They’ll get theirs one day...

Hubby was legendary. His mom was at the school at least once a week for ‘fighting’. I’ve seen him take on 3 or 4 in a bar brawl. And win.

Any knowledge on the DNA mix of the Ainu?

That picture looks astoundingly similar to some faces I have seen, the hair and eyes look the same as any modern day person with red or reddish hair and light eyes. The nose shape does not seem to go with the hair and eyes but I have seen plenty of people with a nose like that. Hollywood would make that girl look like a beauty queen. That is vastly different from the depictions of Neanderthals that I used to see. The old images looked far, far more apelike with pronounced brow ridges and a protruding jaw.

Aw, God love ya!

My ol' pa lived about as rough and gutsy a life (commercial fishing) as there is. Fear takes a back seat most of the time with those kinds of guys. Thank God it does in all brave men. But my mom ... he loved my mom fer sher, but she was the only thing I can think of that scared him!

Dinosaurs persisted for 150 MILLION years.

Homo? About 1-1.5 MILLION years.

Sounds like my brother in law. Except he was a total idiot. Fireplug Irishman. You can guess the rest. Just add alcohol.

The daughter unit ended up blonde after her first two weeks of life as a redhead. Dunno how that works but it did... is saddled with German on her fathers side and Irish on her mothers.

I cannot for the life of me why she ended up an alpha ...

No joke. I have seen my share of bar ceilings (from the floor’s perspective) by some big drunk farmboy/lumberjacks. None of them ever made me think twice about getting up.

She hit harder. You learn ;)

I was suspicious of the offspring when I noticed the copper colored eyebrows after cleaned up and returned to me at birth. Birth hair was some nondescript brown. All fell out and here came the ginger business.

Hubby’s hair was the same color as the fair lady in this pic:

Sadly, now it’s just gray.
