He's in the main mausoleum, Garden Terrace (lower level, at the end of the building nearest the cemetery office), Crypt 357, Tier 3. (Celebrity gravehunting is my other hobby.) Happy Holloween!!

Slightly off topic: Does anyone know the exact site of the Black Dahlia's final resting place? I heard that it was in the East Bay... -Kingslod The Huge Magazine Tiki Collection, Desktop Patterns, Pics and Links: http://www.hugemagazine.com/html/tiki.html [ Edited by: kingslod on 2002-10-04 10:52 ]

Apparently the chances of that configuration of letters happening accidentally are astronomical.

They were narrow enough that one might fit into that holder. Maybe they have those at the restaurant? Get one of those and a little orchid or two and swizzles from the bartender and put those in there. It would be like a pilgrimage.

T tikifish Member Toronto,Canada Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 2720	T tikifish Posted posted on Mon, Oct 7, 2002 5:25 AM Global levitation is NOT digital trickery - that really is my husband jumping in the air and me capturing the moment of levitation. The reason he looks so real when he does it is that his hair is too short to move when he jumps. Also he has the straight leg technique down pat. I had no idea he was so talented when I married him, it was just a lucky bonus, ahah! I'm still waiting for more submissions... Id love to see someone levitating in front of a tiki bar... I can't do it myself -I tried, but you can see my hair move adn I keep sticking my arms out like a spaz.
