Famous People from SOMD

jlabsher

Sorry about that chief.
So I'm driving down Great Mills Sat. & see a sign "Birthplace of Dashiell Hammett" What? Yep, saw it again on the second drive by, then looked it up

Yep, his birthday is this week too.

tells a better story, seems he led a heck of a life before being hunted down as a commie in the 50's, hounded by the IRS, dying pennieless of syph & lung cancer but finally ending up in Arlington. Shame there isn't any more reference to this guy in Lex Park, they could use something like this as a tourist draw.

Got me to wondering, are there any other famous people from SOMD that you know of? I'm not talking about the forum losers, real famous people.

You've posted more than twice as often as me, and you use the term "forum *LOSERS*"?

The only ones I know of are the ones almost everyone seems to know of - Ted Koppel apparently owns a home here, and Tom Clancy has a home somewhere up near Huntingtown in Calvert.

Doesn't Doug Hill (the weather guy) have a place down by Piney Point lighthouse?

Hey otter; if you used to date that lady from Indiana Jones; does that mean your famous? (I saw her the other night in Sandlot and thought of you).
