Breaking News--Wacky Walpurgisnact.

For people who do not believe.....We have breaking news out of the heart of Hollywood. A raging fire is engulfing the Basque restaurant at 1707 Vine St. Being the curious bugger that I am I decided to look for the closest Star on The Walk of Fame. That was James Stewart at 1708 Vine St. That was the same Jimmy Stewart that in the last years of his life shared Julie Andrews' infamous PO Box 666. The reason he was sharing was that, his personal secretary was her personal secretary, Claire Priest. She had worked for him for years and I guess found it convenient to take his little bit of mail at her new bosses mail box. She died some years ago on the Autumn Equinox of a cerebral hemorrhage.
