Some how I am related to Florence Nightingale and Al Capone. My grandparents used to tell me, but I forgot how.

I use to live right down the street from one of Capone's houses in the Inland Empire. It was crazy because the old owners of the house showed me the trap doors and stuff he had. The crazy bastard lived next to a train track for escape purposes. there's pictures of him at the house in the entrance of the house, it was kinda creepy.
