It's in-bred.
You spell like you're in-bred. And you're as tactful as a neanderthal.

Yes, William's grandparents are second cousins once removed, but before anyone criticizes the Royals for inbreeding, he or she should take a serious look at his or her own family tree. In Pakistan, for example, 55 percent of all marriages are between first cousins, which simplifies genealogy considerably. Albert Einstein wed a first cousin, and Edgar Allen Poe did as well----not to mention Charles Darwin.

I certainly didn't think that any one that I was related to would break this social taboo (which apparently wasn't that uncommon in European villages during the Middle Ages until about the 19th century), but upon working on my family history this past year, I discovered that in about 1830 double first cousins married each other on my mom's side of the family while second cousins intermarried on my dad's side as well about a generation before the American Civil War. These folks had recently arrived in the United States from the Inner Hebrides (in Scotland) and Northern Ireland respectively, so they probably felt most comfortable marrying kin; and yes, since you asked, they lived in Kentucky and North Carolina. Nevertheless, it comes as a bit of a shock.

BTW, I have the usual number of fingers and toes and an above average intelligence.

It's his impersonation of George Dubbya Bush.If ever there was a candidate for the "inbred look" it would be him.
