^ crazy eh? i learned about it only a couple of years ago when one of my relatives made a book about the family tree, detailing where and what everyone has done or is doing. my dad was all "yah didnt you know?"
if i had known, i would have felt a compulsion to join.

[Ms.Chop]

gawd.. my brother joined air cadets like in.... 94 or 95... and he got me interested.

its a good program if you're interested.. if you're forced to go.. it's no fun.

I'm related to Steve Yzerman, and Mark Janssens... So 2 NHL'ers! And my great grandma had a ticket for the Titanic, but she traded it in for an earlier sailing on another ship to get to N.America sooner, and thus SURVIVED!

With my name, I could be famous... =)
