I found a second cousin too, but she turned out to be a dud. We never met, but she just stopped emailing out of the blue. Come to find out years later that she had an issue with my 'politics'. I have no idea how she even know of my politics, as I don't remember discussing it. Maybe I mentioned liking Obama? Dunno. She actually grew up around our mutual ggrandmother in another state, whereas I never met her, so she had a ton of pics.
