Recently, I posted some information about Mary Lou Retton, the famous gymnast, who graduated from the same high school from which my mother graduated in Fairmont, West Virginia.
Today, I read that Jim Davis, the creator of the “Garfield” comic strip graduated from the same high school from which the famous actor, James Dean graduated in Fairmount, Indiana.
I thought that was interesting. Fairmont and Fairmount. Who knew?

I didn't know Jim Davis went to James Dean's high school. I guess they can boast two famous grads.

Yes, I'm sure they do boast about it.
