Who’s Dis?

June 14, 2008 in "It's a Wonderful Life", A Dad's Responsibility, Allan Loudell, Andrew Johnson, Belief in Santa Claus, Bush, Celebrety Status, Celia Cohen, Delaware, Delaware Growth, Delaware New Jobs, Delaware legislature, Gerry Fulcher, Hyperbole, Much Ado About Nothing, an actual good Republican, civil disobediance, competition, credibility, delaware's finest, early childhood development, ethics, fiscal responsibility, political humor

With the hot summer here, for fun, I thought we could run a trivial feature from time to time… Trivial as pertaining to “trivia.’

I was inspired by seeing how Allan Loudell performs this function so adequately at popular events, most recently at the St. Anthony’s Italian Festival, and so I thought perhaps that with today’s sources, one could create a vague enough sketch, thereby making it fun with the use of search engines, to take a stab a guessing who this “prominent” Delawarean is……

So here it goes….

“My dad served in the Delaware House…. My great-grandfather served in both the Delaware House and Senate. Our family gained prominence by selling tomatoes and corn to the Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company…. My great, great, great, grandfather received a commendation in 1867 for serving in the Union Army during the Civil War…”

That’s all you get……

So who’s dis?

To negate the “spoiler” effect, if you are sure you know who this is, just respond with their initials, to get you on the boards as being an expert on your Delawarean Trivia……..

Good luck…

(Wild guesses are encouraged….) We’re doing this for fun…….
