More Where's Waldo...
The McCain Family, adopted bangladeshi daughter and all:
I'm trying to figure out if I feel sorry for her or not... My dad's from Bangladesh. That makes me Bangladeshi. And frankly, I'm glad my dad's not John McCain, because aside from campaign finance and some war stuff -- well, brown people do better with brown parents to teach them insecurity the good old fashioned way.
In other news, Elliott Smith killed himself a while back. But he was working on a new album, which I was waiting for. And well, now that he's eligible for the Selena treatment, he can finally do better than the soundtrack to a Gus Van Sant movie. Anyhow, the new album, milked right from the graveyard, comes out in October. I care.
I'm down to one key. The one to my lab. It's just kind of sad.
Yeah, enough of that.

Down to one key - that's cute :) I like that...

Just because your father is Bangladeshi does not mean that you are as well. In fact, the word "Bangladeshi" implies nationality, not ethnicity. So, you and your father are Indian ethnically, and are American (I'm assuming you both are citizens). If you want to get technical, one could say that you're Bengali American, but that's a bit much for my taste.
ah, screw that bullshit. i would rather crap into a beehive than argue the finer points about someone's accuracy in defining their heritage. all those PC labels piss me off anyway.
