Ha.
(One last comment before moving this to the OT list)
I live in New Mexico. New Mexico is one of the 50 states of the
US. During my time in the army, I heard "funny, you don't look
hispanic", "I thought you had to be a US citizen to join", "Do you speak
spanish?" far too often.
After awhile, I just gave up and told folks I was from Vegas. Then I got
"Funny, you don't look Italian". :-)

Are you sure it wasn't Zeus dressed up as a chicken? He's into that kind
