John Tyler, America’s 10th President, was born in 1790 just after the American Revolution. He has a living grandson. Yep, we said grandson.

John Tyler's son Lyon Gardiner Tyler Sr. was born in August 1853, when the former president was 63 years old. Then His son Harrison Ruffin Tyler was born in November 1928, when his father was 75 years young. Harrison is now 95 and living in a nursing home. He is also a descendant of Pocahontas! Wild isn’t it?

No. I’m not an Alabama fan. But found this interesting as I was watching Alabama and Michigan tonight. Did you know? In 1926 Alabama played the University of Washington Huskies in yes….. the Rose Bowl!! The Star of the game was a kid from Dothan, Alabama named Johnny Mack Brown, an All-American running back for the University of Alabama who was lauded for his efforts in a stunning upset of the heavily favored Huskies. However, Johnny Mack Brown never returned home. A Hollywood director, King Vidor, recruited Brown to take a screen test and Brown went on to a successful career as an actor in film and television.

Here’s a memory a kid will never forget — and a Florida tradition. My friend Chris let the folks at Gatorland put his son Nathan on a live gator a couple weeks ago. Fun fun fun….

These cousins, Don Hoover & Joe Sistrunk, from Starke, Florida during the 1918 Spanish Flu. The photo was taken by Don's father, Frank Hoover as they were headed out to sell the weekly paper, "Grit," and then on to school. A year later, Don's younger brother died from the flu.

My signed print of the “Creature from the Black Lagoon” cult classic starring Ricoh Browning as the creature and Julia Adams as the beautiful ichthyologist (scientist studying fish) Kay Lawrence. In 2003, both were together again at a “Creature” reunion in Tallahassee, Florida.

On 11-11 at exactly 11:11 am, every Veterans Day, the sun aligns perfectly with the Anthem Veteran’s Memorial in Arizona to shine through the ellipses of the five marble pillars representing each branch of the Armed Forces, illuminating The Great Seal of the United States!

Oh, so true!
