thrown out of wimbledon '95 for calling an umpire "the most corrupt official in the game" and storming off - his wife benedicte sought the umpire out afterwards to give him a slap "because if jeff had done it, he would have been banned from the tour, so i had to"

She's not listed in that wiki thing but I know I took classes not only w/Thorne-Smith (don't remember anything apart from her being nice) and Cintra Wilson (she was a hilarious pest in French class) but I know I took an English class w/ Carre Otis.

what a rubbish unfamous school.

Ray Manzarek

My HS is not big enough or known enough to have a wikipedia entry, but here's some stuff from the school's website:

Ann Cook Whitman, Class of 1925,
. . . became the confidential secretary to Dwight D. Eisenhower from 1952 to 1962, working during his campaign and during his two terms as president of the United States. Later, she served as confidential secretary and executive assistant to New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller. When Rockefeller became vice-president under President Gerald Ford in 1974, Ann became his Chief of Staff, the first woman to hold that position. She later handled Rockefeller’s personal affairs in New York before retiring in 1977.

Dr. Rebecca Moroose, Class of 1971
Rebecca is the medical director to the Florida Hospital Cancer Institute at the Walt Disney Memorial Cancer Center in Orlando. She is a board-certified doctor of internal medicine, hematology and oncology.

Marvin Bihn, Class of 1954
He was assigned to the Pentagon from 1978 to 1980 where he was responsible for making all assignments of enlisted personnel in the U.S. Army Artillery and the U.S. Army Air Defense Branches.

Oh, and Tammy Pescatelli, comedienne, former "Last Comic Standing" contestant and frequent guest on "The Tonight Show." She and I graduated in the same class. Only 120 in our graduating class, so I knew/know her pretty well.

Melinda Doolittle, singer, third place finalist on American Idol in 2007
Brent Albright, professional wrestler, former WWE superstar and NWA World Heavyweight Champion.
Jeff Leiding, football linebacker for the Indianapolis Colts, 1986-1987
Dari Nowkhah, ESPN Sportscaster

David Loren, actor, regular in online series Prom Queen and Sorority Forever
Myron Noodleman, baseball clown, stage name of former Union High School math teacher and football coach Rick Hader
Julián Rebolledo, voice actor
Les Walrond, Major League Baseball pitcher

randy johnson, mlb pitcher

My gf always gives me shit for attending the high school where fuck-ups from SF went after they were no longer welcome in SFSD, so there are plenty of people who went to my school, albeit briefly, who may or may not figure in the official rolls. I vaguely remember Grace Slick's daughter, China was a freshman around the time I graduated.

the only one I know of was a Disney Channel UK host and is now a TV weather presenter. I think I'm losing.

And at the other end of the spectrum was the boy whose parents (maybe just one, I don't recall) took him back to Germany in the 30's and who ended up dying in the Wermacht on the Russian Front.

on my high school's wiki page they mention our pal kari, but not our pal betsey or our pal liz, and betsey and liz are arguably more famous then any of these people. cuz liz is the queen of doom metal and betsey is a world famous artist. didn't know about the american idol people!

* Julia DeMato (class of 1997), a professional cosmetologist and singer who made it to tenth place on the second season on the television show American Idol
* Will Denton (Class of 2008), an American actor who starred on the short-lived NBC series Kidnapped
* Actress and singer Kari Wührer (class of 1985)
* University of Connecticut football star Scott Lutrus (class of 2006). Lutrus was named to the NCAA Freshman Al[All-American team at the conclusion of the 2007 season
* Nick Mitchel (Class of 1999) a singer who made it to the semi-finals on the hit telivison show American Idol

pretty lame list. except for kari who was at least in anaconda.

I wonder if Kari signed yearbooks with those umlauts?

I remember Kari Wuhrer as being smoking hot.

Sam Haskell, former Exec VP at William Morris Agency, tv industry mover/shaker. I think that's it.

kari used to go out with my brother. she was crazy. all the girls hated/envied her and all the boys...you know. definitely an attention bug. i got along really well with her. good times.

There was a dude from my high school on a season of Survivor.
I knew him as "Chip" but he calls himself "Silas" now.

Always thought Kari was sooooo hot.

Some of these stretch the limits of notability, but u_u whatever.

Yes, quite the gulf between the privately-schooled and the comprehensive kids. Still, we all ended up here, didn't we?

Yeah but some of us are here on the way up, the rest of you are slumming it imo.

Whereas I started pretty low and ILX represents my nadir.

Can someone explain me why privately funded schools in the UK are called "public schools"? I was a bit confused when I first read Grant Morrison's The Invisibles, and in it someone was called a "public school wanker", with the connotation that this person is of the posh bourgeoise type, except that I didn't get it at first because I assumed a public school is a goverment funded one where everyone except the rich go to.

the whole system exists to remind the public (to 'school' them, if you will) who's boss.

The top private schools are called public because in the middle ages they were the schools open to the public rather than private tuition.
