Alexander said she cannot reveal who owns the plot, for privacy reasons. She has heard the unsubstantiated accounts, many of them circulated on the Internet, that the marker was placed by a comedian with the stage name Nick Beef.

So where's the humor in placing a fake grave site next to a man who killed a president?

Pretty lame comedian, IMO. Now, if he'd had the stone marked "Arch Stanton", that might be worth a chuckle or two (Trivial Pursuit time - the Hollywood Edition...).

Was Marina Oswald russian?

I think she was Belarussian. Wasn't she from Minsk?

No, Rochelle, Rochelle was from Minsk. Or she lived there for a time.

"If there is any truth to the story that a comedian tried to turn the national tragedy of Kennedy's murder into a comic skit, his show apparently flopped."

Don't remember a comedian trying to do comedy skit about Kennedy's murder. I do remember a popular comedian (name escapes me but he was a large man whose comedic style was in the wise-cracking Rodney Dangerfield mode) who was dressed down and ordered off stage by Jerry Lewis on his national comedy show shortly after the assassination. His offense was making some off-hand remark along the lines of "so and so, you know, another Harvard man." Disappeared from TV, national career essentially over.

(Of course, considering how bad the Jerry Lewis Show was, maybe just being ON the show killed his career. Sorry France.)

Bill Carson is buried in the one next to that one, right?

That really needs to be removed. Very improper.

I think Nick Beef is a porn star.

What about the Sienfeld episode where Keith Hernandez spit on Kramer and Newman.

I think the one "next door" is simply marked "Unknown". Either way, one wonders about what's really buried next to ol' Arch...

Thanks! The photo of Marina in Minsk (on the link you provided) shows her to be an attractive women. The transcripts of her interviews/cross examinations shows her to be not-to-bright and/or uncooperative.

I thought Roger McDowell spit on Newman and Kramer from the grassy knoll, as Hernandez walked by.

What a pitiful photo this is. They didn't do the killing. they look so sad. The brother looks like he is contemplating why and the mother looks like she is cradling the baby with the thought why did your father do this and the wife and little girl...they just look totally lost and alone. Sad to think sometimes people like Oswald and their ilk only think of the moment and not what their selfish acts will do to those left behind to deal with the tragedy, embarassment and the sadness of it all. Personally, I don't give rats teeth who Nick Beef is. It's done. It's over. Why would anyone want to see Oswalds grave anyway? I saw Kennedy's grave once and that is it. What a world we live in.

Now that makes sense. Seems to me in all these years since 1963 that someone would know where the gravesite was. I wouldn't waste my time going there but a lot of people would. Now they know where to go.
