Dennis Miller went to school in the Keystone Oaks School System. That system is comprised of 3 non-contiguous suburb communities of Pittsburgh: Greentree, Dormont, and Castle Shannon. Although he graduated from Keystone Oaks High School, in actuality, Mr. Miller was a resident of Castle Shannon. Ron Paul, although a graduate of Dormont High School, now known as Keystone Oaks High School after a merger of the above 3 communities' education facilities, was actually a resident of Greentree.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9020480448743700564.post-26657653067599428472008-09-08T20:10:00.000-07:002008-09-08T20:10:00.000-07:00Barbara, LOL, my dad would have liked the popcorn,...Barbara, LOL, my dad would have liked the popcorn, too.<BR/><BR/>LindaLinda McLaughlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15291670592316021851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9020480448743700564.post-76708744990649363342008-09-08T16:22:00.000-07:002008-09-08T16:22:00.000-07:00Your post reminded me of the summer times I had as...Your post reminded me of the summer times I had as a child in Edmonton.

You reminded me of all the summer days in TX with our stamped-metal park-issue tags safety-pinned to our swimsuits so we could be at the pool all day.
