I think you better revise your standard

Do you have naturally curly hair? That's the only time I see this happening to non-blacks.

I have naturally wavy and dry hair. It gets curlier the wetter the conditions are - like I can have spent over an hour trying to get the mess straight, then step outside when it's too humid, and POOF! Suddenly I've got curls.
A picture of my hair in its medium state (not its most curly, but not heat-styled to be straight either):

I don't have any pictures, but my hair starts out as wavy (I've only recently started trying to straighten it completely) and in the summer the frizz is terrible. But if it gets really humid, I get ringlets. I can watch my little fly aways curl in a rainstorm even if the rest of my hair is under a jacket hood.
*shrug* I'm mostly Italian despite the fair skin (got some northern italian too) but I think I have the Sardinian hair. Plus there's an off chance that I have some North African blood in me.. (way way back, we're talking like great-great-great grandmother in Italy) but I don't know if it was more Arab or African or if I'm remembering my Nonna right either...

I like Survivor
I had not heard about the twist and am looking forward to it. This has more than peaked my interest.

DETROIT - General Motors Corp. has decided to end its sponsorship of CBS' hit series "Survivor," but the world's largest automaker said Wednesday that the decision had nothing to do with the reality show's controversial decision to divide its contestants in the upcoming season by race and ethnicity. ( Yeah, right)

They'll regret it once they see the ratings go through the roof!
I'll be watching the show because I think that it will be interesting. I need to admit that even though the idea of the show seems wacky, I'm a little interested to see how it turns out. I already have a preconceived thought of how it's going to go down. I'll just have to wait and see if it materializes.

lol, I only wrote as much as I did because everyone at works comments on my hair during the humid midwestern summers. They must think I "straighten" it normally or something because they're so surprised at the curlies... but my hair has a general state of waved/frizz soooo whatever.
/like I said, people have asked me about it lately

So you basically have your responses to hair questions memorized.

Yep, mostly
Although, the N. African thing is new. My grandma (going more than slightly senile at this point) only just mentioned this so I don't have much info. Something about how someone's family was looked down on in Italy, blah blah blah. My sister's the budding genealogy girl so I'll have to see if she found any details about that.
Oh, and I'm long winded and rambly.. especially when I'm avoiding writing a paper for class!

I've been hearing about the Moors ^^^ since I was little. I was initially told that they were a group of "Black" Italians who migrated to (or was it from???) North Africa.  I guess the truth is in there somewhere.
