I once met a weird lib woman who was plugged into the DC set back in the Camelot days. Her hubby worked at a bank in a famous foreign banking capital where they ski. He died and she became a lesbian.

This old pretenious broad bored me for over an hour. She started talking about john john and said he was Ari’s kid. She said it was known in all the diplomatic circles. I knew one of her children so I knew the family background. I wish I had asked her if all Dems hide their money offshore because I bet she knew.

I know Lee (her sister) was buddies with Ari. She went on the trip but that was after John John was born I think.

In looking at Joe III - it reminded me of John John again (rest his soul as he was not like his family). Joe III has the whole red hair irish thing going plus the Kennedy mouth.

John John had an olive complexion and did not have Kennedy features at all. He did not have the Kennedy mouth and teeth. No other Kennedy man was even close to being as handsome as he was.

Hmmm...

Well Frantzie, I guess I’ll toss out my ‘Kennedy’ story (and yeah, I’ve got one, not much but an amusing little curiosity)...

Many MANY years ago (in the 70’s) I worked at a Navy contractor an outfit in Aspen Hill Maryland called ‘Vitro Laboratories’, at one time they were a damn large company, employed a LOT of retired Navy officers (and other retired military), they had their fingers in a lot of contractor business, and did (IMHO) some good work for the Navy, mostly in the consulting, information management areas, etc.

Anyhow, Vitro ran a shuttle service composed of a number of full size vans, station wagons, sedans, etc., between their buildings in Aspen Hill and Gaithersburg Maryland, and Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEASYSCOM), NAVELEX, NAVAIR, etc.

Moving right along now that I’ve set the stage, I remember one of the drivers that I struck up an acquaintence with and he said that he used to drive FOR the Kennedy family (specifically Teddy) in Washington, and he told me that I shouldn’t believe ANY of the many stories floating around about the boozing, womanizing, hell-raising, etc., because the truth was at least 1000 times worse than what got out to the public.

Now I could easily dismiss what he said as pure BS, but his refusal to go into details (and I was trying to find out more) told me that he was either a very crafty liar, or he had a sense of loyalty to the Kennedys.

In any event, there you go, it made our trips to and from Crystal City Virginia more interesting anyway! lol
