Yeah, I astonish myself sometimes.

What does being a Jew have to do with anything? I am, in fact, 
ethnically ashkenazi, but everyone who sees me considers me to
be a white person, as I consider myself to be a white person.

Ashkenazi are all pretty white, and about half of us aren't even 
a little bit middle-eastern looking.

I don't see that. I didn't insult the whole list. I insulted Dan,
and I have apologized to Dan.

If you feel insulted by my insulting Dan, I suppose it doesn't cost
me anything to apologize to you. I'm sorry, Andy.
