well breaking it down

black, Irish, French, and Indian, but i generally identify myself as 100% American when filling out any job application.

no need to let Race get in the way right? also, i don't use the word race, cause man kind isn't apart of NASCAR and we can't be driven.

i use the word culture. different cultures, with different sink colors. the word race, just complicates things, and life is complicated enough without adding another barrier to it.

Are you sure about that?

It actually does have some reasoning in science. 0 degrees F is as cold as you can get with a mixture of ice, water, and salt. 100 degrees was what they thought the human body's core temperature was back in the day.

But yeah, Celcius is better.

When was it discovered that the core temperature was actually 98 degrees?


I don't know. But it considering how Farenheit was possibly the first guy to make a thermometer that was at all precise, and thermometers took about half an hour to measure human body heat up until the 1860's, it probably wasn't for a while.

Personally, I suspect we only call the human body exactly 98.6 degrees F because it happily coincides with 37 degrees Celcius.

Are finnish people Mongolian or Caucasians?

 

cause Sami are mongolians

 

how much of finland is Sami

The Sami are a very small minority here. I'd say Finnish people are Caucasian but that's something I'm not 100% sure about. Can't say I've ever seen or heard anything about us being Mongolian, though. :P



Puerto Rican (Nuyorican)
