Q-grr the missing puzzle piece

She could have banked it for charitable causes.

Sounds a little pretentious. How are far has her IQ taken her? I'm sure she's had success, but it would be a shame if that money was wasted away on other peoples' wasteful tendencies.

My tribe voted down a casino resort. I was very glad that they didn't get pulled into that realm.

Do Fijians count as Polynesian? That is up to that community to decide.

Maoris and Hawaiians are too diluted to have the requirement

Kids/grandkids' eligibility depends on who Zach marries (and who his kids marry)
