OK. You're a nerd with a gun.

I participated in a family research DNA test a few years back and when I can afford it I will be having the expanded map done. We proved that the three distinct Longley lines in the US are related.
OTOH, a few years back someone was talking about a musician by the name of Stevie Nicks, and I asked "Who's he?" My wife doesn't let me live that one down, but after all, I went country when the Beatles started ruining rock and roll in the 60s.

That's OK. I'm a heavily armed redneck who knows how to do wireless frequency analysis for setting up AV networks so I catch it from both sides.

I saw that movie on the eagles, about Vince Papale I think. It was a pretty good movie, I'd be excited to get tickets too.
