Big Day on Willys Parkway

Today, when Condi Rice is confirmed as Secretary of State, my house becomes famous.

Once she is confirmed, Stephen Hadley becomes National Security Advisor Designate. And Stephen Hadley, born in Toledo, lived in my house for the first three years of of his life -- almost certainly in Gabe's room (this April, Gabe will also mark three years in that room).

I have to admit that I'm hoping Hadley goes out in a blaze of scandal -- otherwise, no one will really care.

Stephen Hadley was born in Toledo Hospital in 1947 and his family initially lived on Willys Parkway in West Toledo. The Hadleys relocated to Hempstead Road in Ottawa Hills, where he attended elementary school and middle school. Before Mr. Hadley began high school, the family moved to South Euclid in the Cleveland suburbs.
