It's a small world

Okay, so apparently this guy...

...is my 4th cousin (I think it's 4th. I was never good at figuring out that stuff).
Anyway, he is my dad's dad's sister's son's son. You do the math.
(In case you don't know, that guy is Casey James from American Idol.)
I have a very vague memory of being at my Aunt's in Shreveport when I was about 6 (I think Casey is my same age), and meeting a blond haired boy named Casey. The only thing I remember is my uncle making a joke about having a Casey and a Lacy. Anyway, apparently he was at a family reunion I went to in 2001, but I don't remember him. It's funny that I remember that little snippet from 1990, but don't remember him from 2001.
Anyway, there you go.
All together now...it's a small world after aaaaallllllllll!!
