Pick-up Lines for Genealogists
There's a new pick-up line being advertised on t-shirts from JMK Genealogy. They have switched the phrase "Hey baby, what's your sign?" to "Hey Baby, what's your haplogroup?" This has to do with the growing use of DNA testing in genealogy research.
Haplogroup (definition from NationalGeographic.com)
Branches on the tree of early human migrations and genetic evolution. Haplogroups are defined by genetic mutations or "markers" found in Y chromosome and mtDNA testing. These markers link the members of a haplogroup back to the marker's first appearance in the group's most recent common ancestor. Haplogroups often have a geographic relation.
This made me wonder if there were any other good genealogy pick-up lines and of course Chris Dunham has posted a Top Ten List at The Genealogue. Numbers 8 and 9 are my favorite.
