That's interesting. Did it bother her living that close to a killer?

@Trippin
That's pretty cool. I wish I knew if I was related to anyone like that.

Is there anyway to find that type of thing out?

I'll try that. My parents said that two of my distant ancestors were William Wallace, John Adams and John Quincy Adams....But I'm not sure where that got that information and how valid it is.

I once drank a cup full of Phillip Seymour Hoffman's saliva.

...does... does that count for anything?

Serial killers don't kill their neighbors! The neighbors are always the ones that say "he was quiet, pretty much kept to himself, he seemed like a nice guy..." You're probably safer being a neighbor of one of them than anyone else. :)

I grew up in the House next to Ted Bundy, and went to the same High school (where on every desk and chair is the engraving Ted Bundy was here) He was a few years younger then my mom, and delivered her paper everyday.

Hands up any Australian convicts, er... I mean members. I'm pretty sure all of your granddads were Jack the Ripper or something.

My wife is supposedly distantly related to Mary Queen of Scots and John Cusack, which is cool.


I might be related to Jane Seymour, the old timey royal, not the actress. Thank god for that, too because i have had impure thoughts about her from Live and Let Die.

I lived down the street(3 blocks) from Dahmer while attending Marquette U.

He got busted the year I dropped out. Which means the killing was going on when I was living just down the street
:eek:

My mom's husband says he's somehow related to Lucille Ball...so I guess that would make me some distant relative by marriage? But no...no serial killers. Although there was a serial rapist in my house once when I was 14.
