Last Day of June Fun!

<p>Fun <strong>QOD</strong>!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I grew up in New Haven CT.  Some folks native to New Haven:  Ernest Borgnine, Paul Giamatti (actors), Norman Lear (TV producer), Walter Camp (inventer of football), Charles Goodyear (of Goodyear fame), Eli Whitney (cotton gin inventor), Steve Wynn (casino mogul), Benedict Arnold (famous traitor), Artie Shaw, Liz Phair, Michael Bolton, Richard & Karen Carptenter (musicians), Benjamin Spock (Dr Spock), George W Bush, Joe Libermann (politicians), Roger Sherman (signed Declaration of Independence). </p>
<p> </p>
<p>And you could throw in any of the millions of people who have attended Yale...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As for my current town, Springfield NJ...  Well, it's a small town.  We got Ziggy Wilf (owner of the Minnesota Vikings), Jeffrey Ross (comedian) and Claudio Reyna (soccer player, formerly on the U.S. national team). </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I used to live in the neighboring town on Summit, whose list includes: Jim Cramer (of Mad Money), Jon Corzine (U.S. Senator), Meryl Streep (actress), Ice-T (rapper), Charles Gibson (Good Morning America anchor), Rex Ryan (Coach of the NY Jets), Miles Austin, Dave Brown (NFL players), Willie Wilson (baseball player). </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The only ones on these lists that I've ever seen in person were Jim Cramer and Jon Corzine.  I've seen them both at CVS a couple times...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Edit:  I also used to see Joe Liebermann quite a bit back in the 70s.  Back then, he was just a local politician and he lived on the street next to where I grew up, so he was always around the neighborhood.  But that was a long time ago, when nobody knew who he was...</p>
