As far as I know, I'm not related to William Faulkner, even though we share the last names. Too bad, that would be totally boss (I'm sure it will help me out in my writing career, though, haha).
But, I am related to Scott Rogers, the [head] stunt director of the Spider Man movies and Sky High. He was even on Disney Channel once, being interviewed by the Disney Surfers, or whatever they're called. I've seen him in person when he came to visit once, but I don't think we talked...at all. :'D
Haha, wouldn't it be marvelous if my biological father was some kind of sports titan or billionaire playboy? Good gosh, what if he works at Area 51? That would be gnarly! But unlikely. Even so, I never knew him, but I plan on finding out about him some day!

Twi is actually the father of several of the members here, but he refuses to take the paternity test to prove it. Why don't you love me daddy? *sadface*
Other than that, no I'm not related to anyone special. I do share a birthday with John Wayne, but that's as close as it gets.

Not related to anyone, unfortunate--WAIT!
Oh, no, nevermind.
I at least SHARE the last name of one of the Japanese voice actors for Eggman. Not telling who though ; P
I do share a birthday with Paul McCartney though.
Ironic. I also play bass.

Nope. I am not related to anyone "special" as far as I know. I'm just related to my mother, and that's it. So basically it's just me,myself, and I.  |

Funny this topic popped up when I've had this story on the top of my mind... I just recently got back from a trip to visit our relatives up in Chicago. While I was there, several times we passed by a building Wilson Sporting Goods has up there. My dad told me about his uncle Ted Javor, who has designed baseball gloves over the course of his life. When we got back, my mom gave me this article that he was featured in in 1992. Have a look if you're interested... img337.imageshack.us/img337/2121/catchingonur8.jpg |

I have some German relatives who own a brewery, does that count?
I actually found some of the beer they make a few years ago, but unfortunately for me I wasn't able to buy it being under 18 and all. Not even sure why I wanted it, because I don't drink anyway.

I'm related to some dude who worked with Babe Ruth. My parents weren't specific, but they gave me a black and white picture of the two of them together.
I'm also related to someone who did some really bad things, and that I'd prefer to merely brief.
