In my best Picard voice, "Explain." 😁

Well, my grandparents were born in Ireland (grandmother) and England, (grandfather) according to family lore, he is a cousin a couple or so times removed, never met him, it’s a family tree deal…, it’s likely like ones family being related to George Washington type of thing…, although Bonham was never the Prime Minister.,, 😁

I was just curious if you could name the generation of the common ancestor you and Bonham share.

That I don’t know right off, that info is in theory with some of my Canadian relatives, (Fathers uncle’s family) up in Kingston Ontario. Haven’t seen them in a long time.

After years of half assed pronouncements in my family over how Ferdy is related to Fritz, I found a few online charts sourced from Google to be a godsend in determining just who my 'first cousin thrice removed' is.

Nicholson said he stopped acting because he couldn't remember his lines.  I think Hackman was the same.

My pinochle skills are fried in my old age.  Can't remember what cards are still unplayed.  Acting must really be a B word! 🙁

Winner, winner chicken dinner. It is the Macho Man who was signed by the Cardinals as a catcher out of high school in 1971.

I have to admit this was an easy one for me. On the REELZ channel I believe Ch 238 on Directv they do a lot of biography's of people. About a month or so ago they did a bunch of wrestlers including Randy. Included in that was his early life and how he wanted to play baseball before getting into wrestling.

I thought it would last a little longer because his appearance changed so much, but good on you for getting it so quickly. Who says watching biographies doesn’t pay off? Lol.
