A strange Eagleburger bit of trivia: |
|
He has three sons, all of whom are named Lawrence Eagleburger, though they have different middle names. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurence_Eagleburger+++++++++++ Now that is pretty weird in my book.

5. That's what George Foreman did too. All 5 of his sons are named George. |
|
Strange. Very strange. I never knew that about Eagleburger.

8. His DAUGHTER is also named George ! |
|
But he has a great excuse. Muhammed Ali, Joe Frazier, Holyfield and others beat the shit out of his head for 25 years.
It's just easier for him to remember if they are all named George.

9. True - he used to joke that the reason why he named all three of his sons |
|
"Larry" was because he wanted to, in his own words, "screw the Social Security system".
Eagleberger has a strange sense of humor.
Oh, and he smokes five packs of cigarettes a day.

Baker, former Republican Senator from Tennessee). As a member of the board of directors of the Halliburton Company, he is a member of the Audit, the Compensation and the Management Oversight and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees.http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Lawrence_Sid ... http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Kissinger_Associates%2C_Inc.
