Sources told The Hyannis News that the home belongs to 91-year-old Ethel Kennedy, the widow of the late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy. The Kennedy Compound consists of several waterfront homes along the Nantucket Sound in Hyannis Port, the report said. The death takes place 50 years after the late Senator Ted Kennedys car plunged off a bridge off of Marthas Vineyard, killing his 28-year-old passenger, Mary Jo Kopechne.

I remember an old joke about the Kennedy compound.
There was a sign at the entrance “Trespassers will be Violated.”
I have heard it pronounced “Shar Say”, but I think the Irish actress Saroise Ronan pronounces her name “Sir Shuh” (rhymes with “duh”).
Odd name.
Howie might be but I saw his tweet
saying it was a shame to die so
young, at 22. The victim was a
classmate of Howie’s daughter Carolyn.
My late dad who lived on Cape Cod said he was once asked by some people how to get to the Kennedy compound which wasn’t far away. “Follow me, I’ll lead you there.” When the people got there one (elderly, maybe blind) was led to the fence.My dad saw him put his hand on a fence for a moment, then turned and said to the others. “Okay, let’s go”...as if it were a holy place on
the old man’s “bucket list”.
She shoulda rallied against dope. Drugs 'r' bad, m'kay?
LOL - I started looking at the article, just to see I was totally in another world.
But I did base my comment on the history of that ‘family’ - women who get involved with them do not have happy endings, and that goes back at least 100 years.
Nobody reads the article here
Its a tradition lol
Pills, booze, depression and sexual molestation. Seem to run in the family.
The murderer Skakel kept a golf club leaning against his desk when he worked in real estate. Imagine.
Sort of like Ted Kennedy naming his dog Splash.
Wow, an amazing tidbit.
I didn’t know that.
Thank you, wow, that’s sick.
She added that someone I knew and loved broke serious sexual boundaries with me, leading her to pretend the incident hadnt happened and attempting suicide.
...
The Kennedys curse themselves and the nation.
Ladies, you are better off sleeping with OJ than an effing Kennedy.

The President only had a few paternal Kennedy cousins
They don’t mention him in the obits.
My mom met John Jr., Merchandise Mart, Chris brought him by her showroom and he said hello (no handshake). It was not long before he died, we just watched his Biography or something on A&E.
I never met Chris myself but I attended a screening of Rory’s Hillbillby movie way back when, he was in the front row.
Funny story, when I was a kid I assumed my mom was boss of the entire Mart (and wondered why she only worked in the one showroom). When she was a kid she thought her uncle owned it,
she told her friends when they went there on a field trip (early 60’s)
Them: “You’re a Kennedy?!”.
She hates their guts and is a strong Republican but still rooted for Chris (despite having had personal issues with him) to win the rat Gov primary instead of Fat Boy.
Its true. Youre more likely to survive a date with Juice than any interaction with a Kennedy.
Speaking of which, the 50th anniversary of Chappiquidick just passed.

u r a kennedie! We all look alike.
RedSox Nation is in trauma. Radio. Web.
And
The Eastern League playoff rules have created the well-known Unacceptable Scenario that arose in 1981, MLB. ( Before being corrected by MLB.)
Team A. First half winner.
Team B. 2ND best overall record.
Team C. in close fight with Team A to be 2ND half winner.
Team B deliberately loses games to Team A the final week, to help A beat out C in the 2ND half. B gets the playoff nod to play A in first round.
You see it?
