Your old site from last year drops an awful lot of names which 1st Nation people I know never do (it's a BIG no-no and an ego trap). Many on this list are known to have never offered teachings (so I am told).
Your old site mentions that your Father was Irish and from the Tribe of Danu which anyone who can use Google knows is the myth behind the Clans of Ireland, not a clan in itself.
Is all this for real?
