Long before I was there. I’ve seen him at two booksignings, years apart, and introduced myself as being from that school. He burst into a huge grin both times.

Assuming we can give more than one entry (and that officially taps out famous people who have been to that school).
She’s an actress from NCIS and, like Tatum, went there very briefly (a year or less). She’s 2 years younger than I am, but I think I remember her from my school bus (leastwise it was a girl who looked kind of like her), though obviously we weren’t chums.
This is a small town in Alabama; Tatum was there because his grandparents lived there and he lived with them for a few months, but no idea why Pauley Perette was living in the Alabama sticks for a while when she’s from New Orleans.

Shelled corn mixed with a little milk and a pinch of sugar, deliberately scorched and then simmered. Doesn’t sound it, but it is delicious if done right.
