After their baby was born, the panicked father went to see the Obstetrician. 'Doctor,' the man said, 'I don't mind telling you, but I'm a little upset because my daughter has red hair. She can't possibly be mine!!'
'Nonsense,' the doctor said...'Even though you and your wife both have black hair, one of your ancestors may have contributed red hair to the gene pool.'
'It isn't possible,' the man insisted. 'This can't be, our families on both sides had jet-black hair for generations.'
"Well, said the doctor, let me ask you this.
How often do you have sex???"
THE man seemed a bit ashamed..'I've been working very hard for the past year. We onlymade love once or twice every few months.'
'Well, there you have it!' The doctor said confidently....
"It's Rust.."
My hair has always been pitch black, but it was red when I was born.
It was red until about 6 years old
Also-everyone in the family has black hair
My father’s brother had red hair but was bald by age 29. He had six daughters, two real redheads.
My wife is “black Irish” with the Spanish eyes. I have five daughters, one semi-red, one flaming ginger.
The genetics of red hair are complicated.
LOL
My mom always said Gypsies stole her real daughter from the hospital and left me in her place.
Then come to find out the odds of me being green eyed when the rest of them are blue eyed is pretty iffy.

good one;)
Jazz great Jimmy Smith had a version of I’m Gonna Move to the Outskirts of Town on the album Stay Loose .
I’m gonna move baby, way out on the outskirts of town
You see I don’t need no-body, always hangin’ ‘round
Neighbor told me
You must have a lot of children
That milkman’s always parked in front
every day.
Let me tell you honey, we gonna move away from here
I don’t need no iceman, I’m gonna, get you a Frigidaire
When we move, way out on the outskirts of town
Whoa, you see we won’t need no-body, always hangin’ ‘round
I’m gonna bring my own groceries, baby
Yeah, I’m gonna bring them everyday
That’ll keep that grocery man, I don’t like him anyhow
I’m gonna keep him away, yeah
It may seem funny honey, funny as can be
If we have a dozen children, you know they AW-LL-all better look like me
When we move, way back ‘a town
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, we won’t need no-body, always hanging around
We don’t need nobody baby, AW-LL-always hanging ‘round
Hangin’ ‘round
Hangin’ ‘round ((Lyrics vary. Also BB King and other versions are great.))

** We found out we are Scot/Irish **
can you imagine being a Scot/Irish alcoholic?
You want a drink but you don’t want to pay for it.
Thanks and lets hope that this happens:
The show is in my view an allegory concerning the young people of China existing under the rule of the communist party. Youth prevails!
Lol, my ancestors made their own.
My Dad had jet black hair and dark brown eyes-
My Momma was a green eyed red head.
I had (gone sliver now) dark blonde hair and have green eyes
My elder brother has light brown hair and hazel eyes.
Ping to my FR Sissy!
A lovely red head!
Hey, Sis! Now we’re both the same....I call it beige blonde...but that’s my ego talking LOL..., but as hubby says, the roots [and the attitude] are still red. LOL!
And both my parents and probably THEIR parents were redheads. Irish/Scots/English all the way. :)
LOL! “Rust”
😂🤣😂

I remember as youngsters we were told that Gypsies steal kids, especially babies.
Oh my!
And neighbor Ferd Burfle!
I am not like her *at all*, therefore, I must not be hers.
Great thing to lay on yer kid her whole life.
/paradoxically, I HOPE she’s right
