Twenty-five would definitely not be enough.  Heck, that wouldn't even be
enough for all the Americans who insist on being labeled as -American, 
i.e., Irish-American, Cuban-American, African-American, Chinese-American,
Korean-American, German-American, Indian-American, Native American --- I
could go on and on.  I'm waiting for the label "mutt-American" to come
into vogue for people like me, who have a little bit of the entire world
running through their veins.  Until then, I guess you can just put me in
the column as just a plain ol' American.

Sorry....pet peeve of mine.  I'll go back to lurking now.
