That's why you're a harper.

This kind of arithmetic gets out of hand way too quickly. My grand daughter
is 1/4 Salish, my step daughter is 1/16 Cree (through an ancestor that died
in the late 1700s), my daughter is 1/8 Norwegian, and so on and so on.

Me? I'm 100% Pictish, and even though we disappeared from history in the
eighth century, I'm filing my claim to the Kingdom of Fife (and Aberdeen,
should the oil hold out).
