Many of the open lines callers last night were talking about genealogical research and their family histories. Amazing they all claimed to descendants of royalty or someone famous. Reminds me of all the people like Louise who are reincarnated from famous people. Never an insurance agent or sign painter.
The best last night may have been the guy who claimed he was a direct descendant of Hannibal, the Carthaginian general and statesman. When Syrett asked how he was able to trace his ancestry back before Christ, he said something like, "It's pretty easy, we all have the same family name."
