5. Like the "Sham-Wow" avatar
But could do without the bagpipes.


So you're batting .500 today.



However, if you know where I could find some bagpipe Christmas songs, I'll bump you up to .667 :-)

13. My father much prefers to talk about our Scots ancestors
than our Irish ones and when I posted this on my facebook page he replied:

"Near High Street on the way to Edinburgh Castle - I know it well. These are your people lass, not those pasty, pie faced sods you admire so. ;)"

20. Heh! Spoken like a true Scotsman
My own ancestry is 1/8 Scots and 1/8 English, both from the Borders region, both essentially Lowlanders. So that's what I go by, because it's much easier than trying to explain five hundred years of Scottish/English borderland clashes to the uninitiated.

23. Yeah, I'm walking around with a Bohunk last name
Or is it Slovak? They came from Bohemia, but I think they were ethnic Slovaks, one generation removed from Slovakia.
