Picture (http://www.geocities.com/lvydro/DSC00972.jpg) Thats my high school graduation a year ago. I've since shaved the mustache but other than that look fairly similar.

I dont think I look very german, but hey, people can think what they want.

As for Ashkenazi genetics, you are right in that the various results are conflicting. I've never heard of the Khazars before, so I'm gonna do some reading up on that. :) Interesting stuff

Yeah, you dont look like german. However, it wouldnt be impossible if you are bavarian or something...

Although I do hope he doesnt really kill himself.

BC has 783 documented waterfalls. That may or may not be a hint.

As for who owns album "starfire1X", that's another part of the answer...

"Overlander" may or may not have anything to do with the image.

And her real name is Heather Jpegfif, of course, that should have been obvious. :p

It disconcerts people to refer to them on a first-name basis, or even by their IRC nicks, so we try to memorise as many from the profile thread as we can.

JMC = Kate.
TC = Heather.
Hogsweat = Matt.
The Macabees = Jon.
New Empire = Dan.
Pythagosaurus = Mark.
Kazcaper = Karen.
Pure Metal = Huw.
Glitziness = Amy. (Ok, everyone knows those two, but meh.)
Ilie = Naomi.
Reploid Productions = Stephanie.
Katganistan = Katharine.
Erastide = Katrina.

(I may have some of these mixed up but meh.)

Daylight sure fades quickly in Canada. Must be the whole border thing. I'm at virtually the same longitude (latitude? I always get those two mixed up) and it's still light at almost 20h. :p

Well, my dad is Punjabi from Pakistan, my mom is Cherokee and Scottish from Alabama, and I grew up in the Philppines, so I've pretty much been mistaken for every brown-skinned ethnicity imaginable. Seems the most popular choices are Greek, Italian, Iranian, Arab or Latin American, although I've heard weirder on occasion...

...such as the time a man in Manila asked me if I was an 'Israelite'; sadly only later did it occur to me to respond, "No, my dad's Amalekite and my mom's a Moabite". Oh the 20/20 vision of hindsight... :D

People often think I am "ethnic-looking" but I've never heard one ethnicity over another. Some I've gotten are Russian, Irish, Spanish, Italian, and from Greece (I hate saying Grecian, like I'm an urn). I don't know what I am since my mother was adopted AND I look nothing like her. Nobody in my father's family has olive-toned skin, and my mom sure doesn't, so who knows.
