DNA Link Found Between Frozen Aboriginal Man and 17 Living People

The Globe and Mail is reporting that scientists claim to have found a DNA link between the frozen remains of an aboriginal man and 17 living people. "While the work on the human DNA project has opened new doors and work will continue on establishing a fuller family tree, Long Ago Person Found's descendants said they finally have the opportunity to give their ancestor a proper burial. Because his lineage had never been established, no memorial potlatch could be held. Of the 17 people linked through DNA, 15 self-identify with the Wolf Clan, meaning the young man was most likely Wolf as well."

So... you could say that these families are modern day "where wolfs"... "There wolf" --->
"There castle" --->

What terrible spelling and word use. I assume that since it's after 5PM, you have already slipped your brains through slot in door.

sending genes to my friends is limited to a select number of females in my case ;)

Unfortunately...

Due to the lack of a frozen will, the 17 people will now be heading off to court to fight over who inherits the frozen wooden bowl and spoon found with the man.

It's never lupus.
