Fantasy Genealogy: A Thursday-to-Sunday meme

Posted at 5:13 pm / comments closed

I actually started this post early Thursday morning before my 8am class — and then all that rain hit, so I’ve delayed it. But yes, April tagged me, so off I go…several days late. Hehe.

1. Which famous person would you most like to learn that you are descended from? I, too, say Bill Gates — the smarts, the immediate inroads to a job…the cool million awarded all descendants of Gates…can’t beat it.

2. Which famous person would you hate to learn that you are descended from? Hitler, Mussolini, bin Laden…that’d be a real bummer, mainly because people would hate me because of something one ancestor did.

3. If you could be ancestor to any living famous person, who would it be and why? Bill Gates. Yes, again — because damn, I’d be proud of him for making all that money and then giving it back to do all sorts of good in the world.

4. If you could go back in time and meet any known ancestor(s) of yours, who would it be? My great-grandparents — from what my grandparents have told me, they were very interesting people. It wouldn’t bother me to see my grandma again so we could talk about how the Padres are mediocre again this year. I miss that. :(

5. Tag five others: This is an open-ended tag as I’m terrible about pointing to people to do these. Haha. If you do this, track it back to me and I’ll see it and comment accordingly.
