Family Stories

The Guy
I don't know if there is anyone famous in my family. I really don't. I do know that there are some cool people in my family. This first guy is really cool. And the reason I refer to him as a 'guy' is that I actually can't track down his relation to me. All I know is that he is my uncle's (the one that's not related to me by blood) brother's cousin or something ridiculous like that. Anyway, this long-lost relative lives in Cali and he is a genius supposedly, although I've never met him to verify this fact. You see, at my aunt and uncles' house (previously mentioned) there are dozens of pictures of different space satellites and lunar rovers and other vehicles. And on the shelves are little models of those same crafts. This is because this guy was one of the primary engineers for the Voyager II or whatever that apparently went to Saturn and took all these spectacular pictures and space-dust samples. (And the reason they have all that stuff in their house and I don't is because they are directly related because of my not-bloodline uncle is their dad)

So I really want to meet this guy some day and I think if I did, I would have met the most famous guy in our family.
