        Born in Somerset Massachusetts. Quiet little town home of pretty much nothing fantastic. Couple of pro baseball players Jerry Remy 2nd baseman for the Angels and Red Sox, now does color for the Sox, and Greg Gagne who played most notably for those World Series Minnesota Twins teams in the 90's. Clifford M Holland was from there as well. He designed some tunnel in New York.

        Now live in New Bedford Mass. Known for much less if that's possible to believe. If you watch the TV show Wings you can see the flight times for the New Bedford airport in the background. I actually live right behind that airport. Woo Hoo!! We also had a guy kill someone a couple of years ago and got chased until they shot him in VA I think. Got some national coverage. The McDonalds hostage episode took place here also. It was on America's Most Wanted. Anyone wanna come visit? Didn't think so. We got murderers, what you got?

        Joe Levine, the man behind GI Joe actually lived a couple of towns over. That's the biggest toy tie-in I can think of. We got whales too. Not anymore we killed em all in the late 1800's, but we got whale skeletons in a couple of museums. Kinda cool the first time but just bones after that. Big port city. Awesome seafood.
        It's not a doll it's an action figure.
