Three Brooms, Dustpan, Broomhilda, whatever she is, this takes the creepy cake...

Shari shari...we could swap stories on this stuff for hours. Tonys mom was adopted by her aunt. Her sister...half sister...had 5 kids, 4 of them were for half sister's and Tonys moms biofather. Half of the people that live on the road that I live on are related in some form or fashion...lol. When Jamie went to first grade he came home from school and asked us...can I like this little redheaded girl? Uh no honey...she is your cousin...lol.

So instead of a family tree, its more like a grapevine intertwining on a trellis...

Hm. Maybe you know the chickens and the hoot owls phrase, then, too, huh?

 

[DammitJanet]

Yep!

 

[Shari]

I wonder if we're on the same grape trellis....

Uncle Daddy!?

OMG I am nearly on the floor. I think I work with some of your relatives.

 

[gcvmom]

Okay, spill. WHAT is the chickens and hoot owls phrase? You'll have to pardon my naiveté!

 

[Shari]

Ummmm.

Janet? You wanna take this one? lol

Well, they are cousins by association

[insert music from Patty Duke Show] "but they're cousins, identical cousins, and you'll find..."

Although this is sounding more like "Bold and the Beautiful" than anything as wholesome as Patty Duke Show.

I do like the idea of "Duelling Banjos" - it fits well.
