Kathy as a distant relative has a former Tammany appointed mayor of NY.
The only comment we have ever found on him in a bio of Boss Tweed, and I
forget his name for now, was that he was raised in a stable with pigs.
Was watching Lonesome Dove over the weekend and enjoyed the bit w/
Robert Duvall about we don't rent pigs. And then there was all the
entertaining poking.
