You make me wonder who gave him the his name? <br /><br />My greatgrandfather changed our family name after having to fend off biased groups with his shotgun. I don't know how he did it, but my grandfather blended in very nicely.<br />You know, part of it is the part of the country one comes to. No matter if it is nationality, race, employment, or ??? And I can't always figure a reason for it. I won't elaborate except to say that when I lived in El Paso I was amazed of how nicely 'everyone' lived together, it was all very mixed up and well assimilated.<br />..<br />On the comment posting page I clicked "Show Original Post" because from the other's comments I thought there may have been something hidden here. <br />You might want to see what it looks like. :-)<br />..<br />I have a daughter-in-law from Venezuela and a son-in-law from Trinidad. They have assimilated to some extent although not to my expectations and hopes.<br />..Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7625395820364255340.post-11185875809366444822009-06-22T17:44:23.959-07:002009-06-22T17:44:23.959-07:00I do remember this happening often in my younger d...I do remember this happening often in my younger days and still find it fascinating...Nice work!Tumblewords:https://www.blogger.com/profile/04279038951489894119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7625395820364255340.post-10950152719690007532009-06-22T06:24:32.631-07:002009-06-22T06:24:32.631-07:00Your poem made me smile as I recalled the care my ...Your poem made me smile as I recalled the care my mom used in blending her ingredients in baking wonderful treats.Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02023472067047797430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7625395820364255340.post-903023281737116772009-06-22T04:41:04.244-07:002009-06-22T04:41:04.244-07:00Tasty bit of poetry with helpful hints for life.Tasty bit of poetry with helpful hints for life.Dr.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02752941912945095736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7625395820364255340.post-91119913213356687562009-06-21T18:17:20.708-07:002009-06-21T18:17:20.708-07:00Like it very much.
