The home page for ths school he attend is at Lisa Maile. I'm not sure what the precise title of the school is (and if it's so famous how come I can't get a higher google hit rate than I am?)

[edit] Mention of the appearance at the Alamo

He was at the ALamo Drafthouse movie theater this year. Should this be mentioned?

[edit] Vinslöv?

I heard that his family came from the Swedish village sv:Vinslöv, thus the name Winslow. Can this be confirmed? Battra 17:41, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

He certainly looks Swedish. Noam Chomsky —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.113.104.47 (talk • contribs) 18:38, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, given that Swedish immigrants came to USA a long time ago, it is not impossible that for example Michael Winslow would have some swedish ancestor. But after noting that Winslow is a common name in England and USA I think that the person who wrote that he had ancestors from Sweden must have had incorrect information. --Battra 18:56, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Sounds like a pretty stupid joke. — Mütze 18:40, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Denys Volkov

From the article: 'Ukrainian comedian Denys Volkov is also heavily influenced by Winslow's work and is said to have coveted him bereft of a template in developing his comedy-opera "Soviet Factory #2."'

[edit] Kellen Winslow, Jr.?

Future hall-of-famer? Really? I'd suggest deletion of that mention until he actually strings together a few standout seasons. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Maxheritage (talk • contribs) 19:56, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I took that down. I also removed the references to being related to either of the Kellen Winslows, that seems completely unsourced. If anyone has a reference for it, please add it. Snowfire51 (talk) 20:04, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
