They do work, after all; The news that I was an inbred mutant is of course what prompted me to read the article. And I did get a kick out of it. I think they probably took the headline down because there are a whole lot of people out there who get offended at this sort of thing, and that's a shame.<BR/><BR/>Susan: I've been hoping that one day we get a kid with my wife's brown eyes. She's also a sunburning pale-face, so the brown-eyed/white-skinned combo may not be as unusual as you think. Of course, my wife is <I>still</I> a mutant, as her eyes don't match--they are vastly different shades of brown from each other.<BR/><BR/>Inbred mutants of the world, unite!

Black Irish, I suppose. <BR/><BR/>I would have been very happy for my children to have inherited their father's dominant browns with the hope that maybe a little less sunscreen needed to be slathered on endlessly. <BR/><BR/>What are the odds of a brown eyed pale skin, I wonder..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4048186698864359724.post-57644095600415828942008-02-01T05:32:00.000-08:002008-02-01T05:32:00.000-08:00When it comes to 'news' articles that aren't *real...When it comes to 'news' articles that aren't *really* important, as in earth-shattering and life-changing, I think they should go ahead and have some fun with the headlines. What's wrong with reducing a study like that to a humorous nutshell? After all, the original headline DID portray the bottom line conclusion of this study, didn't it? :D<BR/><BR/>My husband and children are all inbred mutants- my eyes are green, so I must be Venusian.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
