On the family front, my maternal aunt found one one semi-royal connection on that side of the family--the bastard child of a second born prince or something, and my paternal grandfather's family owned a share of the Salzburg castle.
I kind of envy my stepcousin Jill. She's one of PT Barnum's last remaining heirs, and even inherited some of his papers. That seems much cooler, somehow.
On the non-family front, I just went into the community fridge to get milk for my coffee, and noticed that someone had brought their lunch in a bag from the Good Vibrations store.
PT Barnum
I will now be earwormed with every song from the B'way show for the rest of the day. Dammit.
Perkins, while you're here, do you know of a complete list of PACER coverage?
So am I! Who are his people?
I'm not sure - I'll have to ask him to ask his mom.

There is a list of/link to all the courts covered here: [link]
I think to find out how far back a particular court's coverage goes, you have to look at the particular court's info.
My maternal grandfather's family is from County Cork
Hey! Mine too! Or, no, it's maternal grandmother's family. County Cork, late 1800's, John and Roxylainy Ward. Our family is famous mostly for horse thieving, drug running, and a couple guys who murdered some guys who came after their women and weed. Father of record was descended from a Scot who emigrated to Quebec. Possible actual father was English. Either way, I came out of Britain. Considering how small the population of the British Isles was just a few generations ago, anyone with British ancestry is likely related to most everyone else.
I claim Robert the Bruce and Mary Queen of Scots, until someone proves me wrong.

I was hoping to avoid that. Why hasn't someone done my work for me? Why? Why? Why?
Ok, I'm officially on politics time-out for a day or two.
Because I just read a post from little_details headed
"Progressive Vision Loss In Childhood" and thought
"Huh...what will that mean for the mid-terms?"
I think I need a break.

Man, our ancestors probably killed each other! Or, at the very least, got drunk and puked on each other.

I am about to email you the coverage dates from Courtlink. It may not be an exact match, but it should be close.
