Been doing some internet researching for the Combs family tree. What a fine tree it is. I am pretty sure of the "Combs" part back to 1714 and reasonably sure back to 1637 after that it looks like folks worked a little too hard to refine the lineage back to "Richard Combes, Lord of Combes Manor".

As for me - well, we Durham's can trace our family tumbleweed back to last Thursday. Maybe even late Wednesday!

You know, the Washington Post Sunday Comic section always has a big advertisement for Zero money down laser vision correction. Who on the planet would go get their eye's zapped from a doctor who advertises in the comic section????
