Re: Census

Darn. We'll probably get another form, too.

Wife mentioned that our census form was still sitting on her desk. She had reported "American" for both of us, but decided to change hers to "Irish-American" and mine to "Scandinavian-American" until I told her that either "Germanic-" or Teutonic-American" would be more accurate for me. Don't know what she finally wrote down.

Do they all look alike to Obama? :biggrinjester:
Seriously, that "granularity" has been used on government forms long before Ob came on the scene.

My wife threatened to put "Irish" for hers and "Scandinavian" for mine. I pointed out that both were nationalities and not races.

Don't know what she actually answered.

(Ours was the "short form", too.)
