WHAT a story!

I remember the Hillside Strangler cousins (if I have my LA serial killers right) picked up a teen hitchhiking home from a club in Hollywood one night, and they were planning to put her through their usual torture, dismemberment, and recorded murder in the back of their van, but looked through her wallet first. There was a photo of Peter Lorre in there and they asked her why, and it was her grandfather. Boom, the lucky girl and her stuff were tossed out beside the road. Alive.

He was both funny and thought-provoking in 1970.

May he receive a merciful judgment and be freed from all traces of sin and sorrow. Rest in peace, brother.

Wow, what a great response & a mini history lesson to boot, thanks! I know my parents liked him.

When I was a young girl my father played Lenny Bruce’s “To is a preposition, come is a verb.” I had no clue, but in the back of my mind I knew it was dirty ; ) How could you not! Now as an adult I realize it was brilliant.

Again, thanks for the great reply.

Yes, we are better off. There’s no telling how many minds he poisoned.

Thanks, doosee, for sharing.

Did they happen only in black neighborhoods like Prince believed?

Yes, apparently so. That people would sit for that garbage was a real eye-opener.

Way back in the early 70s I was a college kid who happened to attend the speech Dick Gregory gave at my school. It made such an impression on me I never forgot his message. Because of it, I learned about how much the left can hate, and especially whites. Most of his talk was filled with White Mfers over and over. This was a sick man speaking to nearly an all white audience.

I saw him at my school in the late 70s too. My roommate and I were just about the only whites in attendance. He gave a long rambling talk, excoriating Hollywood, and endorsing couple of local pols - black - who were under indictment. If he was ever a comedian, there was no evidence of it that evening.

If you haven’t seen the video in one of my posts you should - it’s only a few minutes - maybe it’s closer to 5-6.

My introduction to Red Fox was around 1960 when I was 13 years old and a neighbor kid who was in my class had a copy of a Red Fox comedy album. One afternoon when it was too cold to shoot our rifles on our farm or ride mini-bikes we went to his garage where had had a hangout type den with a record player. Red’s “The Horse Race” was one of the funniest skits I ever heard.
