The Kennedy Cousins
In this week’s “Intelligence Report,” Lyric Wallwork Winik writes that Christopher Kennedy Lawford’s new memoir, Symptoms of Withdrawal, is a rare peek inside the Kennedy clan from one of its members. Lawford—the son of J.F.K.’s sister, Patricia, and actor Peter Lawford—also writes of competition among his cousins.

There, at least that one's fixed.

That's good.
or flying plans when you really should not be flying them. sorry about that.
"flying pans"....
Is that what the Chinese cook their burgers in?
";^)
third try flying planes, not enough caffeine this morning.
Sheesh, I can't even get it right. "Flying plans". Maybe they get them at ToysLUs?
I just wish they would play a little more football on the ski slopes.
*LMFAO*
You got it.
I vacationed in Hyannis when I was a kid and we always ran into a Kennedy. Biggest group of a-holes you'd ever run across. Their answer to everything was, "Well, I'm a Kennedy".
The sad thing is it still works.
I was wondering the same thing.
They used to ski up here in Waterville Valley in the '60s and '70s. Everybody who ran into them here said the same thing.
You should have posted a hic-up alert.
Who cares about this group of moral degenerates? They're an embarassment to Irish Catholics everywhere.
"Education activist," LOL.
Caroline was a guest on Georgie Steponallofus's program this morning, and she discussed her new book on ... poetry.
According to a FReeper on an earlier thread, Caroline said this: "My mother always read John and I a lot of poetry."
Sigh. So much spent on expensive private schools, so little learning.
