Fascinating. And the first of the Hillside
Stranglers' victims was picked up on the sidewalk in
front of what is now my apartment building. Oh, and
one of the Manson girls not chosen to visit Sharon
Tate or the LaBiancas went to junior high with me
for about a semester before she disappeared; her
mother, executive secretary to the LA County
Sheriff, was understandably beside herself at her
daughter's disappearance. (It was more than a
little strange at my 10th high school reunion to
bump into Vickie's best friend in junior high who it
turned out had since high school graduation managed
a Taco Bell and joined the Army, but then Danya was
always kind of strange, too, and had spent time at
the Spahn Ranch herself. God only knows what
happened to Vickie.)

Does anyone have any kooky animal stories *ripped*
from the headlines to share with us?
