Love this picture, it was my background picture for a long time.
Always made me happy.
I've been to Iceland, they don't look like they've been in-breeding for hundreds of years!Apparently it's enough of a problem that there's now "an app for that".
"Three engineers made an app for the ‘Íslendingabók‘ database. People can now easily, and on the go, look up how they are related to other Icelanders. And a precious feature, using the bump technology, allows people that meet to just bump their phones together, to instantly see if they are too related to take things any further. The engineers’ slogan for this feature was: “Bump the app before you bump in bed”.
Well you have to remember that the Irish women and the viking men weren't related or anything like that, plus, inbreeding has actually been going on for thousands of years, royal families used to do it because they did not trust outsiders. Obviously the vikings had sons and their sons had sons and then they married each others families and yadda yadda yadda, you have Iceland.
Well, I did an app that supposedly did the same with the families of the UK, I already new my families history and that app was not even remotely correct.Apparently it's enough of a problem that there's now "an app for that".

How has Maineiacs not become a thing?A little late for that, don't you think?
It is with the Maine Air National Guard who call themselves "Maineiacs" but the rest of us call ourselves Mainers.
How about Mainites?It is with the Maine Air National Guard who call themselves "Maineiacs" but the rest of us call ourselves Mainers.
Never heard that one before.
Well, if the great State of Maine decides to use it, that's okay, so long as they pay me for it!If there ever becomes a political issue, how about the term Mainstayers?
Well, if Maine ever decides to secede from the union, there could be Mainstayers?
We seceded from Massachusetts back in 1820 but doubt that we would ever secede from the US. It's sometimes said as a joke that we're almost Canadian as it is.
Shouldn't I have a 50% chance of plugging in a usb device the right direction on the first try? I think my success rate is in single digits.
Here is a fact for you: if the state of Wyoming was to secede from the union, they would be bankrupt in less than a day. But if Texas was to secede, they would be in the top five greatest economies in the world, Texas actually gives more money than it gets, I wonder why the independence movement isn't more popular, where as in Wyoming, they get more than they put into the Federal government, so that is why they would be bankrupt.We seceded from Massachusetts back in 1820 but doubt that we would ever secede from the US.

I am not shure where I will but if I am in the area of this ride I will be watching and listening. Yeh it was a hard accident, I also think the translation form the German manual into English missed a few things. That one guy who got really hurt is doing well though. I do wis( the mall whouldput up a monument or something for the 3 people that died
