Olympian Summer Sanders went to my High School, while I was there. I was friends with someone that dated her. Also, Molly Ringwald was from my town.
I was there '99-'03, apparently it's a right state now.Chezzz said:
Speaking of most bonkers,my mum went to school with David IkeThe_root_of_all_evil said:
Szymon Wydra, winner of the first Polish Idol and a popular singer was born here.
Also, very close to Radom (my hometown) was born Cezary Pazura, one of the greatest actors and stand-up comedians in Poland.
Other than that... Some people from Poland without whom the world would be different, like Tadeusz Kosciuszko, Polish-Lithuanian, Belorussian and American national hero.
Pope John Paul II, too.

I worked with a fellow whose grandfather wrote crouching tiger, hidden dragon". His name was Hung Wang, which I thought was a joke first off. Other than that, from where I come from only NHL stars are born. I even graduated with a few people that are now stars in the NHL, but I still consider them douchebags from my prior encounters.
It reminds me of the excellent Atari 2600 game, Castor's Revenge!Lazzi said:
Anyway, I was just pointing out your (I think what is a) typo in a (un)subtle way, because I'm an asshole.
But I live in non-English speaking country, so even if there are a tonload of famous people who have gone to my school, they're only famous in my country.
Russel Crowe owns property in a town called Glenreigh which is near Coffs Harbour (on the NSW coast) where I grew up. His band played at the Coffs Harbour RSL a few times and I met him. Wasn't exactly endeared to him either.
Now, however, I live in Sydney, Australia. CBF to think of the names. It's 6am. I KNOW Sydney has spawned some talent.
Slighty off topic, but for any Aussies that are fans of the show Home and Away (*retch*) I met Kate Ritchie and the guy that played Ada Nicodeamu's lil brother (or however you spell her bloody name)
Also, the movie Danny Deckchair was filmed in Bellingen...The main house used was owned by my friend. Didn't get to meet anyone though.
I did see Kick Gurry when they were filing Garage Days in Newtown/Enmore. That's just up the road from where I live now (Marrickville). That was pretty awesome.
