It is just another attempt to distract from the Epstein List.

The good news: I have to say that the half time show was 100 times better than the game.

The bad news: This was the worst Super Bowl I have ever seen. Neither team should have made it to the game.

Are we sure these are the two best teams in their perspective conferences?

I am with you on this. I attended in the 80s and they won the conference most years, but I never thought they would ever win it all. Of course, back then it was run left, run right, run up the middle, first down, repeat. πŸ˜€

In my honorable opinion, The Last Kingdom is by far the best TV show of all times. The books by Bernard Cornwell were great too.

I agree with you. It was a great year. As an alum from the 80s, I surprised they passed the ball.

Sorry for the bad Packer fans. I've been a Packer fan for 50 years and I am getting tired of them too. Most of the bad ones have only been fans for less than 30 years. I remember some really bad coaches and teams back in the day.

Thanks for your response. I thought that was the reason. My German side come over between 1835 and 1871.

My plan is to read more, walk more, finish writing my family history, and ironically, research less on that family.

Thanks. The first draft I used the name on the account since I figured people can just look at it, but then used private on DNApainter for living people who did not test. I was also thinking tester 1, 2, 3, and so on.

reading it 50 years from now would be confident that I covered all bases. On the other hand, 50 years from now, a descendant would not have access to the DNA on MyHeritage like I have when conducting the research.

All options are welcomed.

I want to be able to use full names of the shared matches, but I am also aware of privacy concerns. Is it okay to use full names in the writeup? WHen I presented this project to my genealogical society, I used the first initial and last name. I want this to be thorough so that someone (cont)

#DNAGenealogy #Genealogy I have finalized my DNA research project on the boyfriend of my grandmother and have identified the father of my half uncle. I used LEEDS, MyHeritage Autocluster, and DNAPainter. I want to write up the results and share with all of the families involved.

Is there a way to get a general idea of a trip from St. Albans, Vermont to Duluth, Minnesota?

My sister Mary and I went in search of our father's boyhood home. My dad showed me back in the 90s. We found it. The biggest question as a result? Did my grandfather build the barn and outbuildings? We then stopped at the cemetery on our way home.

I just figured how to export to a pdf and it is one sheet, but It still seems to want to print in pages. I will try the program that came with it and then try canva. Thanks. It is a learning experience for me. lol

Good morning genealogy family. I am interested in creating and printing large descendancy chart for my family. I have a printer that can print 24X36 or 24x48 charts, but the genealogy programs (Family Tree Maker) don't seem to acknowledge any other printer that a 8.5x11 or 11x17. #genealogy

Starz and Netflix have Outlander. Great show to binge watch and I don't binge watch too many shows.

Oh look at me.  I used to be a quarter Pict.  This may make sense since the place of my grandparents have petroglyphs all over the place depicting raider from moder day Scotland.
