Guest guest Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 OK, folks, I gotta weigh in on this. I've restrained myself as long as I can (OK, OK, so the encephalopathy is the real culprit, and I had to wait for my hubby to help me out on this). 1. We met and shook hands with Marcel Marceau (he was speechless) on his last USA tour in 1995. 2. I'm a direct descendant of the Conqueror (yes, my Mom is an avid genealogist). 3. My hubby's grandfather was a close lifelong friend of Jimmy Burns (Associate Supreme Court Justice under F.D.Roosevelt; state Senator from SC; Governor of SC; Secretary of State of the USA). 4. My hubby claims to be a legend in his own mind (OK, so this one isn't quite as valid as the others!). 5. And, of course, every TRUE southerner claims to be related to E. Lee, whether we are or not!! We PSCers seem to be a pretty noteworthy bunch!! I've really enjoyed reading all these. Regards, Carolyn B. in SC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 I must confess – I still watch All My Children! I seem to like that much more than the reality shows! I began watching AMC in the 70s when I went to college – there were a bunch of us and we would schedule our classes around the show. What a life eh?

He is good friends with my sis- in-law's family. Obviously, we are peons to my sis-in-law's family. Mr. Bush was very nice when I met him briefly. Any soap opera fans? If you used to watch " All My Children " in the '80's, then you should remember Donna Beck Tyler, etc (many last names). Her name is Candi Earley and she is from my home town and I know her; however, my mother knows her much better. One more, I got to meet Chuck Berry in the Newark airport. This has been fun finding out who knows who! Liz 36 MS 2/03, PSC 6/04 > OK, folks, I gotta weigh in on this.
