My ex wife was Sec to the Chairman of the board of AMGEN bio tech.

They were developing cancer fighting drugs that were still in the testing stage with the FDA.

Her boss and all the brass at her company were on a off-shore fishing trip one week.

Ted Kennedys office was trying to locate someone at AMGEN with juice that could get one of his constituents on the drug test program as a humanitarian exemption.

His staff called the house and he got on the phone asking me to help locate the wife to thus locate her boss.

This right as cellphones were not quite in everyone's hands.

The constituent got on the list and it helped their treatment.

He had to be one of the most un-popular Senators yet managed to get re-elected every term.

I'd wager one of the Kennedy clan will run for, or be appointed to the seat.

Carolines a real loony tune, the rest of the family not much better. Bobby jr may take a shot at it.

If they don't get in now, we may see the Camelot Clan fade away.

so if his name was edward why did they call him teddy? probably just the kennedy nickname thing.

I was wondering the same thing.... :dayum:

Yeah the nicknames were big on both sides of the family.

The family was huge and some names repeated themselves, so the tags were common.

John Kennedy was usually called Jack.

His Grandfather, the infamous "Honey Fitz".
