50% Italian, 50% Coonass. 100% American. When i was a kid on my moms side they spoke Italian while on my dads side French and some Spanish.
But my dad used to always say you never know what you may find if you look up the family tree. I do tan good from the Spanish and Italian in me or is it something
else

Italians are Europe's mexicans.

Nope - there's Spanish, Portuguese and Greeks first. We come after them for the title (I'm an "actual" Italian moved to the US as a US citizen - born here and raised in Italy).

Italy sucks currently salty balls - that's a fact.

However, there's some good aspects still - don't lose sight of those positives among which,

- still good food

- un-beatable at making leather clothes and some fancier ones (Armani comes to mind)

- Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc.

- Beretta? I mean, not like H&K, but still a decent firearm maker (and the oldest in the world at that)

- pizza, mandolino, spaghetti, mafia, "ciao bello", "O Sole miooooh", etc.

- add your own

I mean, you can turn some of these into something good.

Also, it used to be the southern Italians that were considered the lower quality ones (Sicilians, Naples - Campania -, Calabria, ...). The others - center north - have always been different, more like the rest of central-north Europe.

Take care,

Ciao Bello!

They are not from the "T" I take it? Philly and the Burgh might as well be different planets.

An oft quoted line about PA politics: "Pennsylvania is Pittsburgh in the west, Philadelphia in the east and Alabama in the middle.

The "T" ("Pennsyltucky")

"Pennsyltucky" is a slang portmanteau of the state names Pennsylvania and Kentucky.
It is used to characterize—usually humorously, but sometimes
deprecatingly—the rural part of the state of Pennsylvania outside the Pittsburgh and Philadelphia metropolitan areas, more specifically applied to the local people and culture of its mountainous central Appalachian region.

At times the term is used to describe all of Pennsylvania outside of Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. The word is a portmanteau constructed from "Pennsylvania" and "Kentucky", implying a similarity between the rural parts of the two states. It can be used in either a pejorative or an affectionate sense.

This term is interchangeable with the slang term "The T", used
primarily in political circles (e.g., "Winning the T"), because of the
shape of the area of Pennsylvania when excluding Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh. "The T" is considered a more politically correct term than "Pennsyltucky" when referring to potential voters without so openly insulting them.

Philadelphia in the southeast corner and Pittsburgh in the southwest
corner are urban manufacturing centers, with the "t-shaped" remainder of
the state being much more rural; this dichotomy affects state politics
and culture as well as the state economy.^{[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pennsyltucky#cite_note-1][1][/url]}

Think again. No other country on earth comes close to all that Italy has given to the human race. Food, language, art, wine, architecture, inventions.

Maybe he couldn't understand things so well 30 years ago and they figured it would be easier if he could just explain to people he was part Polish. Like he would forget to open the door before walking through it and someone would ask why he did that. He could just say I am part Polish and the subject would drop. His family was just looking out for him.
