Yeah, did ZenGum move out of Japan or something? Haven't heard anything from him lately.

Kiwi's are cool people. Well so are the Aussie's for that matter.

That's true enough, but I can't hear the term "kiwi" without thinking of small, green fruits. Sorry.

not talking about descent, 'tho I was thinking about it when this topic occurred to me (Scots-Irish here). Just--seems odd. I don't think I've ever encountered anyone from Ireland on a forum, but I have from New Zealand.

I'm descended from English Quakers, though they lived in Tiperary County before they came to the colonies.

Another thing I've noticed - and others have certainly mentioned over the years - we are an almost exclusively white forum. Only three exceptions I know of among regular posters and a few more mixed heritage and most of those not in the previous generation.
Why is that? Do we exclusively talk about stuff white people like (breakfast, wine, living by water). It's odd. A group of white people round the world found the same site, yet no black, Asian or hispanic people did.

prove it! we wanna see pics!
I'm all for diversity. Whenever I see a black person here in El Paso, I wanna just run over to them and give them a hug! 'Course, they're almost all soldiers, so that's probably not a good idea. ![]()

Why, because they're not Mexicans?

Everyone here is black... text, with an off-white (#F1F1ED) background.
How things change: Me: "I wish we could find a black lead singer." My guitarist: "Yeah I know... we'd have it made, black guys are utterly cool right now." |

Green with envy.
In the pink. White as a ghost Blue. Yellow. Purple with rage.
