Never had heard of them. Searching now...
BTW, with the current state of affairs on terrorism...I'll bet the FBI has profiled you quite well.
Some...interesting philosophy they have there.
Hmmm...my boss is buddies with a lot of FBI agents.
I can maybe pull a report...it would take awhile..but...

Why yes I am. This was a while ago, the 70's. You'll have to use the internet to find out about it but my cousin Terese was a terrorist. She belonged to a terrorist group in the 70's called the George Jackson Brigade. They would rob banks, blow things up and generally raise hell. Terese got a number of years in a California prison. She's doing well now and has all that nonsense behind her. She has had her name ommited from publications of the brigade. She is my dad's brother's daughter. He worked at Peoples Bank at the time. His support of her during the trial's cost him his job but I don't think he really cared. He retired during the trials in the late 70's but ended up living and working with the Jesusit priests in San Franciso and Portland. He worked at the Catholic archdiocese's on the west coast revamping all of their totally screwed up bookkeeping and made and saved them millions. I guess they needed it for the crap that's gone down lately with the priests and their screwed up behavior.

My father-in-law is Rod Sherman for what it is worth.
He played at USC, then for the Raiders and Bronco's. Was in the first Super Bowl.
It is pretty cool when he visits us...we have all kinds of people calling the house.
He also owns Flashback Football Fantasy Camps. I attended a few years ago at USC and was coached by Pete Carol and staff for a few days. Met Reggie Bush, Matt Linehart, and the rest of the gang. Had a BLAST.

I Stanford.
Stanford, Leland Sr. is known historically forbuilding the Union & Pacific Railroad from San Francisco, CA.to Prominatory Point, UT. where he drove ina final (golden) spike and connected the Continent, by rail, from Atlantic to Pacific. He also paid to build Stanford University, in Palo Alto, CA. He and his cronies (Crocker, Huntington, et, al.) are the definition of American Robber Barons. When pressed, Dad said grouchily; "Yer a coattail relative, Grampa was the worlds' *******, and the ceremony in Utah was a farce!" [:@]Thatwas good enough for me. Then, years later, whenI told my Dad that my (then) wife was barren, he said "It's probably best if our DNA dies off."[:'(] So, while you could call him famous, to me he is infamous. Really motivates me to be cool, knowing I've got "the worlds' *******" in my DNA.CBR means be cool.
On a pro-Sherriff Pat Garrett note...Local (Lincoln County, New Mexico) legend has it that Billy hid from Patin a sack of corn, in the Old Mill.Pat came into the Mill and sat on Billy, talking about how Billy should vamoose. Then Pat left. Obviously, Billy didn't vamoose, but it sounds like acop, giving a kid a break.Billy is accredited with one homicide for every year of his life. Pax,G.
