If you go back to 500 A.D., I'm related to every single European, North African, and Mesoamerican.

I think some poeple who will remain nameless Kayla and Jamie have been taking this to the extreme by saying pretty much anybody they can with even the most remote type of affiliation to them. I believe that that is taking it a bit to the extreme and nobody has time to sift through all that. But, not only did they say almost everybody they can, the told us exactly who they were. I mean honestly, I think if they are notable, and we don't know who they are, we can just google the name.

By boyfirend got a grammy and mtv nomination, and his music has been on tv and radio all around the world.

My grandfather is a WWII fighter pilot hero, was in the POW camp where the great escape took place. Has a book out called Kiwi Spitfire Ace.

My uncle is a top american scientist who worked out the deal with cloning things. (don't know if i'm so proud of this one).

My parents once met Rolan Bolan, Marc Bolan's son. That was six months ago.

No, Mr Pernickety, the question is, are you related to people who have done notable things. I think meeting Rolan Bolan, Marc Bolan's flesh and blood, is pretty notable. All of my family have met members of the royal family & the government, but none of us consider that in the remotest notable. So there.

Now I feel terrible. I thought I was clearly being sarcastic about the idea of meeting Rolan Bolan being a notable event. I mean, I have nothing against Rolan Bolan, apparently he's a nice chap, and he DID come all the way over from Los Angeles to Yorkshire to host the Marc Bolan function, which was nice. It seemed to give my parents (particularly my Dad ) a thrill, the way they talked about him. But it's not REALLY no table, or not the way btownmeggy meant, I imagine.

hmmmm...

on my mom's side I am realated to jesse james

i have this friend in my class whose cousin married corey lidle (the baseball player, who died not so long ago).
i believe that is my only "famous" "relation". i checked ancestry.com and i only have two other relatives in america- some uncle in maine and my own sister who moved out.

My mom knew a nobel prize winner...

My GGGGGreat uncle was the tallest soldier to fight in the American civil war.

He met Jefferson Davis!

I once dreamed that Bill Clinton invited me to his house for Thanksgiving dinner with him, Hillary, and Chelsea. I accepted. It was great.

I dream about VERY different things (and not always about sex too).

I had a dream where I was in Oz and I was riding a giant hershey's kiss that floated on water and theere were mermaids. Then we (me and a bunch of random people) disembark and go via chariots through a forest, during this trip Barack Obama, who's standing about 5 feet away from me, announces he's running for president, and I'm yelling "No! Stop! Do it later! Nobody will know..." but he ignored me.

My sister is one of the first females accepted to Valley Forge Military College

Frankly, I think you're making that dream up. You make no mention of any untoward sexual advances from the great man himself. Unless, of course, you didn't think they were untoward
