Oh great, discuss my ancestry under "Levity", will ya?

I am a great fan of both Genghis (not to disappoint anyone) and Madeline
myself, and wouldn't mind being related to the Aga Khan provided he is
dyslexic like Gary (how's your auntie Liz, by the way?) and remembers my
birthday. Apart from that, I prefer to remain shrouded in mystery...

But I can tell you that it is always a freat disappointment when I see a big
headline in the tabloids: "Ms. Kahn will receive EURO 2.5 million", only to
find out that it's all about said goalie's divorce settlement.
