Someone would have to track down birth certs just to clarify. The genealogy previously given, going back to Neal O'Hogan of Ballynemanagh, Ballyshannon is correct for Marilyn Monroe though. Its just the Anna Nicole line that may be at odds...unless Clarence Eugene Hogan is one and the same and he got married twice.Proinsiashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553656296828088450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31797928.post-58983402641336491082019-08-29T17:59:39.251-05:002019-08-29T17:59:39.251-05:00I was absolutely unaware of that!

I just wondered if you are aware that Anna and Marilyn Monroe were actually related. This makes the story all the more bizarre. Anna was unaware of this relationship, or at least it was never mentioned. Genealogies of both women are now common knowledge (Geni.com, Geneanet.org etc). Anna's g-g-g-grandfather was a John Hogan. His brother was Tilford Marion Hogan (1851-1933) Marilyn Monroes g-grandfather. This makes them third cousins twice removed. They then both descend from a William Hogan (b. 1650, Ireland). William married a woman named Mary (surname unknown) in Virginia in 1677. William was the first of the Hogans to come to the United States. His father, unsubstantiated, is believed to have been Neal O'Hogan of Ballynemanagh near Ballyshannon in Co Donegal, Ireland. I think this information, which you can verify by contacting relatives on either site mentioned above, would be of great interest to the general public,Proinsiashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553656296828088450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31797928.post-60154682009112572752018-05-06T10:36:30.741-05:002018-05-06T10:36:30.741-05:002018 and I just had the privilege of finishing Bos...2018 and I just had the privilege of finishing Boston Legal for the second time after having seen it leave ABC in (was it?) 2008. It made no sense to me at the time why Boston Legal would be cancelled. It had been many years since I followed a TV series regularly again. When I did, it happens to be the Blacklist, with James Spader. That series may or may not come back next year either. Notice the Blaklist has a shortened season this year? Very much like Boston Legal did. <br /><br />Even finding where to watch Boston Legal in 2018, legally, isn't the easiest. If you had purchased Boston Legal episodes on what used to be called Amazon Unbox, you can still play them but sorry... it seems the rest of the series is no longer available to purchase as digital content. Moreover, in the United States, a complete set of DVDs were not released. In the United States. Turns out Amazon UK is your friend. The boxed set of Boston Legal, the complete series, is how I just watched it. (For money David Kelly works, you may find that Season one through season 4 of the Practice is available from the UK, plus season 8.) <br /><br />OMG! I had forgotten, thankfully, how hilarious the first 5 minutes of the Boston Legal series finale were. I'd forgotten several episodes, so they seemed fresh again. An episode here or there had probably been missed by the DVR back in the day, as Boston Legal's time slot kept shifting. What a pleasure to watch now. And though I would have liked to have seen more Boston Legal, David Kelly did wrap things up nicely. Now? Why look at that box right there, from the UK. LA Law, the complete series. Produced by David Kelly, at least initially, before the Practice and Boston Legal. Tasty! Denny would approve.

My God, can you imagine how great Boston Legal would have been over these past 2 years especially?? David Kelley would have called it as he saw it, we would have continued to be entertained AND enlightened.

I feel the deliverance is off but the main culprit is the writing. This story line with this cast had the making of a hilarious series and someone let us down. I painfully kept watching last night episode after episode and waiting for the delivery of something worth while watching and.......nothing. I was really hoping for something like birdcage comedian deliverance and acting but this was not even close.

Many share the idea that Angel somehow deserved to die, that Freeze was the actual "murderer" and that this was in no way premeditated. What if Michael Alig was lying? Gasp, I know. What if he had over 7 months to corroborate his story to ensure he and Freeze were in sync? There was another person there that day, Daniel, who gave a police report or two. In his first version he contested that Michael and Freeze talked about killing Angel to take his money. That's peculiar since that is exactly what happened. This was before Angel ever arrived that day. Michael had already stolen $2000 from Angel and at that point he knew where he stashed his money and exactly how much he had stashed away. After killing Angel he took the remaining $18,000 giving $3000 to Daniel who later got arrested for it. While Michael was in jail he kept testing positive for opiates which obviously postponed any possibility for parole. He was high for 12 of those 17 years - but he paid his dues right? This does not seem to show remorse at all. On one hand he's crying that he only did this because he was high and saying that he feels horrible for what he did.... well if that were true the last thing he would want is to touch drugs or reminisce about his drug use. He certainly shouldn't be selling "Ketamine Key Chains" or any pictures with drug related references. He is as shallow as they say and more. As far as those rumors go about him targeting under age boys it doesn't surprise anyone, some even applaud him for it. I would be very cautious over a person who supports him and his efforts after knowing what he has done and seeing his blatant disregard for accepting responsibility in this crime. He blames everyone else for everything he has ever done... when asked about peeing and vomiting in people's drinks he said that he was waiting for people to stop him because if they told him "NO" that meant they loved him. That is the lamest 8th grade excuse to ever come out of a sociopath's mouth.... he really believes the public is stupid and will fall for anything. He is looking for a lawyer, a publicist and an assistant who of course need to work for free or at least for one of his posters. This is the kind of "celebrity" we're discussing. He has an Amazon Wish List where his fans buy him anything his black heart desires. He is now asking for people to subscribe to his daily vlog so he can access YouTube's NY Studio....yes that's what the public needs...more coverage of him and his nervous laughter while discussing "the good ole days", none of which discuss him doing any good for anyone but himself, in fact in a recent episode his roommate organized a day to clean the community which he tried to wake Michael up to attend and I don't have to tell you the outcome... although I'm not surprised he didn't jump at the chance to wear his "Call My Agent" t-shirt in case the press were covering this event. What is also disturbing is that Michael is gay and people believe the gay community embraces Michael which in small part may be the case but most adults don't want to even hear his name. Young kids who watch the movie or adults who have partied at the Limelight have this weird obsession with Party Monster but the fact that he is gay is insignificant and does not mean gay people in general support him. That would be like saying all straight people support Charlie Manson... ignorant. <br /><br />A recent twitter post sums up his attitude and state of mind :<br />"if its a bad thing to look up 2 a guy who lived a life helping others then did one horrible thing then i guess it IS......" <br />of course the post to which he is responding to has been deleted but he really wants people to believe he has "helped" people his whole life... not that he made fun of everyone who wasn't in the clique..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31797928.post-25739541785098638972014-10-17T20:21:49.213-05:002014-10-17T20:21:49.213-05:00Smack that sassSmack that sassJMWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00463555039236489284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31797928.post-24382702523949028262014-10-05T12:36:17.319-05:002014-10-05T12:36:17.319-05:00Don't be upset by this!
