    There have been a couple of nice books written about the zodiac killer. One I read named the killer as a shoe salesman from Santa Rosa.

    Zodiac sort of resembles my ex-husband if he wore spectacles and the dates would match. Wonder if I should turn his miserable hide in just to cause him trouble? Nah, guess not. It was a delicious thought though.
