Welcome home self. 5am. Brain is shot. Money was lost. Correction. Lots of money was lost. So much more I want to say but I can't even keep my eyes open. I just want my bed and I wish I could sleep as much as I wanted, but unfortunatly I have to get up in the morning.

But I'll leave you all with this really scary and strange fact from my book I'm reading.

You have two parents who had two parents another generation back. Who then both had two parents each another generation back. So 2 parents, 4 grandparents, 8 great-grandparents etc. Go back eight generations to the time of Darwin and Abe Lincoln and your at about 250 people.
Go back to the time of shakespeare and the Mayflower pilgrims and you have no fewer then 16,384 ancestors.
Then go back twenty generations - 1,048,576
Twenty-five generations - 33,554,432
Thirty generations - over 1 billon

SO if you go back sixty generations to only the time of the romans (and we're only talking parents of parents here not cousins, aunts, uncles etc) you end up
1,000,000,000,000,000,000

Which is several thousand times the total number of people who have ever lived. Something sounds wrong about that UNLESS....

You guessed it. Lots and lots of incest. GASP! Not in my family line!... but the sort of cool thing about it all...

In just about all most all cases with the people around you.. we're all sort of family even if very distant. While the incest part was a bit disturbing it was sort of intersting to note that most of the human race is related more then just being human.

Ok time to seriously pass out now. Evening... err or morning which ever.
