Adam or Eve?

I do not buy this. When I was a kid, there was a man named Mr. Gartside. He had 4 daughters. One was blonde with blue eyes. One was black haired with brown eyes. One was a red head with hazel eyes. And one had brown hair and green eyes. That blows their premise all to hell. Both Mr. Gartside and his wife had brown hair and blue eyes. It was the craziest thing I have ever seen. All of the children’s hair color and eye color was distinct!

What about the milkman, mailman, and grocery delivery boy?

One common ancestor around 6,000 years old. Where have I heard that before? Andy? Anton? A something I think... wink

I hope you realize I was being sarcastic. I mean...there really are a high percentage of actors, actresses, models, etc., who are blue-eyed, and most of them are leftists. So I leave you to make your own conclusion.

[heavy metal]

this blue eyed human was being sarcastic too... 😁

[Michael.SF.]

I would have dumped her as well.

Funny, I don’t think Italians are known for blue eyes. But then, maybe he’s more northern Italian.

Fake?

I knew somebody would bring that up!

I used to work with a guy that looked just like that.

Heh... I’m not sure the actual *name* of the first blue-eyed persian, er, person is known, but maybe his or her parents named him or her “Persia” — a good name for boy or girl. ;^)

That’s interesting. All of my responses were “blue”, but it still didn’t result in 100% blue. 99.6%.

Unfortunately she can see for miles and miles, and like hotel california you can check out anytime but you can never leave

[wardaddy]

And green eyed like me

[minnesota_bound]

I have green eyes. Whose is my distant ancestor?

[Tommy Revolts]

Ol’ Blue eyes...yup, that’s me!

[Michael.SF.]

Well, with her long blonde hair and her eyes of blue, she’s got me doin what she wants me to. And it’s worth it!
