Well, I am a Hartley... so my Father's side came from the Island on the other side of the pond..... and French / American Indian (Iroquois) on Mother's side (hence my build and deep tan in the summer).

Pure French-Canadian, My folks spoke as much (broken) French as English, even though both were born in Massachusetts. I wish I would've retained the language.

Arman thats a joke right?
I'm Iranian too even though I don't admit it. I am also Irish. I look far more Irish than I do Iranian. Ohh yeah, I also hate Iran. I was thinking you were iranian when I saw your baby pictures in the background of one of your poses with your mag. Iran........I hate that place. NEVER GOING back. Too many hardliners for my taste. Is coke still banned? I know 7 Up is legal there.

X - Plosive,
Is your mother or father Iranian?

When was the last time you visited Iran?

Must have been a long time ago, because when I visited there - They would sell all soft drinks freely.

Donot worry X - Plosive, the Hardliners time in Iran is coming to an end. 23 years of oppresive rule, fueled by an Islamic Ideology - has no stand in Iran any longer.
The whole Reformer vs. Conservative is nothing more than a game, instrumented by Khamenei to stall the coming revolution. X - Plosive, Iran was once a land of beauty(still is in the parts the mullahs have not touched:)) and will regain its beauty, when the advocates of Secularized Democracy prevail.

Please support our cause X - Plosive, and help to make a future for our fellow compatriots -

Do you speak Farsi?

yes I do, Iran was one of the wealthiest countries before the shah. I don't really care much for it anymore though. The last time I was there was in 1997. My mother is Iranian. It's a fun place to be but there are some things that just piss me off. My mother went to jail for a day because she had pink nail polish. The fanatics and there 4WD vehicles...gullible pricks. As far as Khomeini goes I am sure there are more people in line after him. How is paintballing in Iran? The mountains are really nice. Tehran is ridiculous, you can actually cut the air with a knife. I noticed a lot of the wealthier people live in gated communities with a lot of alcohol and illegal satellite dishes.

America is a mutt.

The only way you can be 100% American is if you're 100% Native American.

Lol, the air is very thick in Tehran.
Do you speak farsi well enough, to actually hold a conversation? '97 was a very rough time in Iran, with the presidential elections and all....
They took my father as political prisoner in Iran for 1 1/2 years! They tortured him day and night for 8 months straight! My Sister and I were not permitted to leave the country, and we were kept in Iran for 4 months, away from My mother and brother. X - Plosive, whatever you do, donot turn your back on your people. Donot take that the wrong way, please. Donot hate the country, hate who is running it -:)

Im 50% Italian (Grandfather & his parents came to manhatten from Lucca around 1915-1916), and on the other side, my mom is 100% irish, but my moms family lived in Canada from the late 1700's until the 1940's. So Im 50% Irish Canadian (Its like French Canadian, but cooler)

I don't really have any french canadian blood in my, strangely enough. No one in my family married anyone but other irishmen until more recently, so I have french aunts, uncles, and cousins, but none in me.

Ya... Russ is right. This could quickly get out of hand. Please just respond to the first question and leave the politics out of it. And no jokes about the racial mix's posted either. The authors intent was to discover the diversity here on AO. Not to make judgements or comments on them. PM each other if you discover a "brother" here.

By blood I am 1/2 Czech. My fathers side has a long line of Czech immigrants.

My moms is a big melting pot, with a bit of Scotish, English, and German. I am some how far removed from President McKinley.

And I am on the National Tribal Roll of the Potawattomi Indian Tribe. But I feel it probablly is the strongest blood in me, and effects both my artistic side and my laid back nature.

Same here, I had ancestors on the Mayflower...and I have always considered my self American first(even if I don't agree with alot of this countrys politics--different thread--different time) As far as my bloodlines go I'm an Western European Mutt -- Irish, Scottish, English, German, Dutch, and the list goes on, and on, and on.
