Nathan Murphy Family Tree Musings, part I

I was watching "Burden of Dreams" today and experienced an intense, "Oh my god, Nate, its your father," feeling. I enjoy these experiences so very much, but my great distance from the Beast and inability to share these amusing observations with him and all of you has left me feeling empty and unsatisfied. Now that can all be changed. Let us all compile a series on the Nature of Nate. Think of all the possible lines to Nate - the nationalities, the celebrities, the monkeys, the squirrelly guy in the park - and share them with all of us. Share the old sightings with the new. Remind us of what Nate has been and what he very well could be. Maybe we can have a contest. Winner gets to drop LSD at the LDS Family History Library with Nate. So without further ado, part I:

Nate, the Bastard son of Herzog?

aka The Family Tree of Misery

By the way, Nate, have you visited your uncle in jail, yet? At least you have the sense not to go toe-to-toe with New Orleans Po-po.
