Hey Gerard, I hate football, and just the thought of bratwurst makes me hurl, so guess I had better cross Wisconsin off my list of places to visit!
There's a scene early in the Leviathans storyline where Julia sits down with Chris and explains what she learned while she was in 1897 about his lineage. She basically tells him that the werewolf curse only passes down to the eldest male in each line, and she informs him of his descent from Quentin Collins. This leads to how Quentin was able to escape the curse, which leads to the search for "Harrison Monroe," etc.

Believe it or not, I'm no big football fan (on rare occasion I'll go to a game, but when the Superbowl is on, I'm scanning cable channels for some good movies), and I can't STAND bratwurst. Don't let the word get around, or else I'll be ridden out of state on a cheese log.
Okay, now I wonder, since the curse is passed only to the oldest male in each line, would that mean across the board, or in each autonomous family. That would explain why Chris got it and not Tom (taking it for granted that Chris popped outta the oven ahead of his brother), but it's still a quandry about Joe. If it's across the line, meaning everyone in that generation, then Joe would be immune (taking it for granted this time that Chris is older). If it's in each autonomous family, then Joe would had to have had an older brother (who maybe died before hitting 21, or else has been very good at keeping it a secret). Would somebody just call Maury to get tickets already so we can figure this out?
