Well my friend, as a Canadian type, New York state and its various constituancies are deemed to be pretty cool, IMHO. FWIW, I have relatives in upper state NY (Oswego to be exact). So Good on you Vil, but name a few famous Long Islanders jus for fun. Morgan

I know there are a lot of celebrities from LI and a lot who live here now in the Hamptons (not too far from where I live ), but I can't think of any right now.

And i already made mention of Kim Cattrall. As to Meg and Jennifer... Meg was born on Texada Island so she's fairly close but not close enough to rate a Vancouver Island hometown title. Jennifer was born in California but raised up here. Texada is just off Seschelt Peninsula. (Thanks Sue ) Morgan

Sherlock... I mean... KHANNNNNNN Posts: 25,544 Group: Vulcan Nirvana Member #14 Joined: November 18, 2005	Ok here's one for you all, the main Town where I live like 5 mins away is called Morecambe (as most already know) The most famous Morecamber is none other than Eric Morecambe. I've provided a link below with some information about him for you in case you're not sure who he is exactly: Clicky Clicky He grew up in a house that is next but one to a Lady we know and the street which is called Christie Avenue, is just behind Morecambe Football Ground. In 1999, the Queen came to Morecambe to unviel the Statue we now have in his memory: In my opinion he was one of the funniest men to ever walk the Earth.

Unregistered	From myrtle beach, the only one I can think of is Vanna White. From Louisville, there is a bunch, the most famous probably being Muhammed Ali and myself. Why would Awol be under my bed? Is she going through my comic collection?
