kind of cool, but hardly any of those famous people are from the South Shore Casey Affleck (Falmouth and Newton), Conan (Brookline) Maura Tierney did go to Notre Dame, but she is from Hyde Park, Dane Cook is from Cambridge and Arlington; Jay Leno is from Andover, Matt Damon is from Cambridge, Dr. Suess is from Springfield - Ben Franklin? Seriously? He grew up in Boston and went to Boston Latin.
@jkgovoni@Jamdor78 Oh, I missed that - let's see. You mentioned NKOTB , but how about Steve Carell who lives in Marshfield, Kate Bosworth is from Cohasset, Hal Holbrook grew up in Weymouth, Bobby Farrelly (The Farrely Brothers) live in Marshfield, Chris Cooper (Many A list movies) lives in Kingston, John L. Sullivan (bare knuckle brawler) lived in Abington, Ruth Gordon (Quincy), John Adams, John Quincy Adams, John Hancock. Any relation to Dennis Govoni the local actor?
Great job!!! Plymouth Pebble. Building #19. Slice of 'Gino's. The first Dunkie's. The Toll House. "The greatness of this area's enough to bring you to your knees." Good times, good times.
I wouldn't exactly call towns west of Brockton the south shore.. that would be more Brockton area in itself anyway... towns like Easton, Mansfield, Norton
braintree, best place to grow up

@Jamdor78 I know...we tried to get around that by prefacing that verse with "throughout Massachusetts...some live far and some live near." :)
