Hi everybody:
Thought that it was time for a little humor again! This was sent to
me by a cousin in Bend, Oregon.

SOURCES JUST SLOW ME DOWN
The people are what it's all about so I don't worry about
sources. If I find an ancestor with the last name Smith, I just
go ahead and link him to Captain John Smith and his wife
Pocahontas. Last name of Carson? I have them descend from Kit
Carson, the famous pioneer. If their last name is King, I figure
I can go ahead and show descent from King Richard the
Lionhearted, because he was a king that I like.
After you do it for awhile, it gets easier and easier to link
your family to really interesting people. Sure you have to be a
little more creative than those fuddy-duddy, goody-goody, source-
quoting weirdos. Sometimes I have to invent individuals to
connect things up right, but I figure they *could* have existed,
right? And this way my genealogy is really interesting, my family
loves it, and it saves me time! Yep....Sources just slow me down!
My motto: What the heck, who's going to check?
