How dare you implicitly call him a Chretienous Spearchucker!

I would be honoured to have Brittany Spears as a relative. She has money and so she can't be as stupid as she seems.s

Nearly all his relatives were respectable goat herders from north eastern Albania where they wore underwear and used kleenex!

Thank you very much!

They wore underwear on the outside of their sheepskins and they used discarded kleenex to stuff their codpieces, but at least it was an effort.

OT <<Perhaps he thinks a "Creton" is a cretinous Breton. You're not from Brittany are you?>>

No, not a Breton and not from Quebec either (though I visited Quebec City once). Forebears long ago came from the Champagne region (Mezieres), direct to the US, my home and favorite country in the world.

Creton sounds like Craton, as in the Canadian Slave Craton, which hosts valuable gold deposits (obligatory GPM on- topic tie-in).
