You might have seen the new cause celebre campaign going on about preservering and restoring Eliis Island. Easy to get cynical when you see Christian Slater or Kathrine McPhee(ver!) staring at you, but it's a quite a profound centrifuge of American history, though which countless American immigrants have come... something that deserves to be saved and celebrated.

Most Americans are mutts (which as we know, make the best dogs.. watch out for inbreds though!) and we often forget when we talk about immigration and asylum that we are truly a nation of immigrants.

What's your mutt story? I'm Czech and Belarusian, from which I get my ability to detect bullshit, drive tanks, and handle vodka, beer and other more complex carbohydrates.

My last name is direct result of the assimilation policies my grandfather's family got on Ellis Island (thank god we didn't get Brillopad!)
