What famous people are you related to? Eh?
I'm distant cousins with Lindsay Davenport (Tennis player) and another distant cousin is Allan Vine (He designed the Alvin, you know, the submarine. The ship that carries the Alvin is named after my great Aunt Lou-Lou! haha.)
That's all I got. Well, also, there's speculation that my oldest known relative was the captain of the Mayflower...We're not sure though.
How about you?

My uncle drummed for Bruce Hornsby at one point. That was before he was famous, though. Before Bruce was famous, that is. My uncle still isn't famous. So that doesn't count, but I still thought it was worth mentioning.

| My great grandfather was the US champion wrestler for his weight class (small guy) and was a professional wrestler (before the WWF stuff) and would pay anyone that could stay in the ring with him for 5 minutes. He then became an accordian-maker and I still occassionally find his accordians on ebay. |

I have a kind of unusual surname, so I searched it on the web. I'm jumping to the conclusion that anyone with the same surname as me is related, but so far I found one turn of the century opera singer, and one governor of the British Virgin Islands.

Does that mean you're the father of the pet monkey that belongs to Homer, or the father of the owner of said simian?

This is getting too confusing for me. Let's just say everyone here is the monkey's spirit brother, and leave it at that.

I'm not related to any famous people, but I share my birthday with John Lennon. I think that is pretty cool. October 9th. It is actually the date that Aileen Wuornos was executed also.
I lift weights, but I don't sweat. I go for a swim, but I don't get wet. |

oh oh oh. My father and his father and brothers were like proper eastend gangsters...apparently real 'faces' of the time. They owned tons of casinoes and pubs all round eastlondon.
Im related to gangsters. Dont mess with me. or ill have you whacked.
Slight chance of elvis costello....i hope not...
My birthday is the same day as kim wilde, mickey mouse(im not kidding)..and, erm, ant, from ant and dec.
My nans name is stella...like the lager....
Ok, im grabbing atstraws here. My mum told me about some one else recently, but cant remember...ill get back to you on that
Oh, most my family were killed by nazis...does that count?
Homer - im disturbed. The things youve said about kim, and now youre saying that shes your mum....
I bet you never thought your movie would turn out this way
You crossed the other way, youd hope i wouldnt see you, you say youre doing fine, but thats not what it looks like, your undercovers on...

I have only ever said she is my mum. When I said I loved her, I meant as any son loves their mother.
Oh and Benji. Bring it on sunshine, you aint no Maori!
