Hey El Destructo, I'll trade you pound for pound for obsidian...   >:D

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude
better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from
us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down
and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set
lightly upon you, and may posterity forget ...

I am sorry you feel that way Bob.

I was in no way trying to insult you. I don't remember ever calling you ignorant. If I did, I apologize.  It is not something that I normally do unless strongly provoked. As for your demeanor...I have never been verbally slapped like that on this site so I will let YOUR post speak for itself.

   Andrea, ;) now that we are back on track, Guinea feathers make some unique looking feathers but they are a little short.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

If you can verify Her Registration Number....and trace your Lineage back to Her....you can also get registered...it is not an easy Road...as it shouldn't be....otherwise too many would be abusing the System

well then ifn everyone wants toge technical on there ethnic background

all 4 of my grandparents and both of my parents were 100% human,therefore i feel i am brother to all,and i was born on this continent,therefore for that makes me native to it.if i choose to honer the ancestors that were here before me or the ancestors from another continent so be it,ones ethnic background should not make one feel superior  to others(and with some attitudes on here thats how you come off) just because your ancestors have been here for a millenia or more does not make you better than me.your opinions are not better than mine or anyone elses. so come on people,like Rodney king( i believe it was)said"cant we all just get along?".

NO ONE IS BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE,WE ARE ALL EQUAL,YOUR LINEAGE DOES NOT MAKE YOU OR YOUR OPINIONS BETER THAN ME OR MINE.
