I breed dogs; I therefore study genetics. LOL, blonde kids must be hard to explain to the sheople.... It's funny- you can see trends with the dogs, but there are ALWAYS suprises. Kinda like rolling genetic dice.

Beautiful.....

I grew up 5 miles from Disneyland. Had to go to the D-land hotel last winter for a seminar- GOT LOST! It's completely different, streets and everything.

Genes are funny things.....

I know a guy named Gene, but I wouldn't call him "funny". He has earned a 5th degree black belt in Aikido and is a master swordsman. I would call him "Sensei". What were we talking about...oh, yeah, fat kids.

Statistics say 25% of the kids would be blonde....

LOL, I bet they're cute.

[SCalGal]

fat kids and FatBurgers

Oh, yeah, and fat fries.

When our third kid was due we were quite concerned. I had read that one out of every child born in the world was Chinese.

LOL, yes, that's what I remember! All this new stuff..... you can't even SEE the Materhorn.

but there are ALWAYS suprises

Like beards with two hair colors(brown and red)????

[Jeff Chandler]

I think that's enough typos for one day. Later.

[SCalGal]

Well, see, that's the thing about statistics.... on a very small scale, they just aren't reliable.

I mean, the above post- how do you have 25% of three kids be blonde?

[SCalGal]

How interesting... I did have a litter of puppies that changed coat colors for their first year. It was very odd. None of them wound up being the color they were registered as.

Stone=14 lbs

Note to self.. Whatever I think Trent Lott weighs, subtract 28 lbs.

When I was a kid, I bred hamsters. I got $1.12 from the pet stores for every long haired white one. They wouldn't even take brown short haired ones if I gave them to 'em free. So I learned how to make white hamsters with long hair. That's been about 20 years ago. With my long haired white hamsters, the pet stores made a bundle selling hamster cages and supplies, to every daddy whose little girl fell in love with a little white fluff ball. I don't think they made more than a buck on the hamster itself.

Capitalism at work... You must've been a terrific kid. :) I bet you figure out how to get those white fuzzy guys quick, too, with such incentive.

Oops....

Scratching head...... now how'd I do THAT?!?

Did the hamsters die of early coronary heart disease?
