I’ll bet we’ve been together for a million years
By now you’ve probably heard that Barack Obama and Brad Pitt are related. Allegedly. Well guess what.
They occupy branches on my family tree too. Yes they do.
During Christmas vacation in Wisconsin last year, I learned from Matte’s uncle Gary (who is into ancestry stuff) that I am related to Laura Bush. Laura Bush. Not Gee Dub. Well yes Gee Dub, but only by marriage. Whew! Dodged that bullet. Anyway, today when I read the article about Barack and Brad being kissin’ 9th cousins, I learned that Barack is also a distant cousin to Gee Dub. Sooo, as Gee Dub is husband to Laura, I am therefore related to Barack Obama. And Brad Pitt. Yeah, by marriage way down the line. Minor details. This also brings me one degree closer to Kevin Bacon.
Suddenly I feel the need for a family reunion. And I think Cousin Brad should host it. At his friend George Clooney’s home in Italy.
LOL. When I was listening to the radio this morning, the DJ said that Bill was probably asking Hilary for a family reunion since she is supposedly related to Angelina, Madonna, and Celine. Oh and Alanis.
Can I come to your extended family reunion? I’d love to have dins with Barack and Brad!
So I’m related by marriage too?!? When’s the party???
