I think you meant a one if four chance.

Now, blue hair, that's something!

Did Goebbels say anything about Hitler’s bushy little mustache?

Maybe it’s when God breathed life into man. Just musing in the most politically incorrect way I can think of.

So whom did Noah’s son’s children marry? Each other?

I’ve always wondered about that.

The mutation of brown eyes to blue represents neither a positive nor a negative mutation.

Blue eyes are acknowledged to be more sensitive to light, and that's an advantage in areas with less light more of the year, such as northern Europe—where there happen to live most of the blue-eyed people on earth. So, how can it be neither positive nor negative? Perhaps a European advantage for surviving in Europe is just too politically incorrect a thought to harbor in one's mind.

The whole thing sounds like B.S. anyway.

Dad - brown
Sis - brown
Me - blue
Bro - green
Sis - brown
bro - brown

Maybe possible, but I never saw it.

We always sent them for a paternity test, and the news was always bad.

In fact, there was a form to fill out with check marks to see who got the free paternity test — “admitted infidelity,” and “blue/blue/brown” were two of the boxes.

Pink hair, too.

I set myself up for this.......

[Revolting cat!]

The most beautiful woman in the world has blue eyes (or maybe not.)

[Constitutions Grandchild]

Look at the difference in the dilation of his eyes. Is he concussed???

[Centurion2000]

I’ll play along. I have blue eyes. My parents have brown eyes. Is my father my father? /lol

Actually that depends. If you're paternal grandfather or grandmother had blue eyes, probably. If not, the odds just dropped considerably.

[CholeraJoe]

Didn’t you used to have an animated map showing before and after?

[PJ-Comix]

It is impossible, barring mutation, for two blue-eyed parents to have a non-blue eyed baby. (You can sometimes get green, but I can’t remember how.)

LOL! Plus his wife lived in Japan while he was out at sea. And, yes, his son did look quite a bit Japanese. I guess this is what drove him to become a Jehovah's Witness.

[TheThirdRuffian]

There is an article posted along here that contradicts what I said, but I sure as heck never saw it.

[GQuagmire]

paternal grandmother

The Southern grouping included individuals from Greece, Italy, Portugal and Spain, as well as Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews. The Northern group included people with English, Irish, German, Swedish and Ukranian ancestry. These groups correspond to those historically divided by the Pyrenees and Alps mountain ranges.

The Goths & later, Normans (Vikings) really got around.
