Politics Daily tips us that Terry Jones, the would-be Quran-burning preacher, and radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh both attended the same high school in Cape Girardeau, Mo., in 1969.

The high school website is up with photos from their 1969 yearbook, and comments from classmates.

It also notes that Jones was a pitcher for the Tigers baseball team.

Nobody is suggesting any political or ideological connection between the pair.

Here's how the high school website puts it:

Rush Limbaugh USED to be Cape Girardeau's most prominent export. One of his classmates from the Central High School Class of 1969 is dominating the news right now: Terry Jones, the Gainesville, FL, preacher who is threatening to hold an "International Burn a Koran Day" on September 11.

Update and clarification at 1:53 P.M. ET: The website noted above and a similar Facebook page is run and operated by Ken Steinoff, class of 1965, who says he was a photographer for both the school yearbook and school newspaper. It is not the official school web site, rather is a site where Steinoff posts old photographs and bits of nostalgia about the Cape Central high school. He was among the first to put together the Jones-Limbaugh connection. He tells the St. Louis Post-Dispatch: "When you have Rush Limbaugh and Terry Jones come out of the same class," Steinoff told the Post-Dispatch, "that's extraordinary."
