New Old Lizzie report from TV on Youtube
Almost 8 minutes long, this is an investigation into the case by Entertainment reporter Tim Estiloz for CN8. He gets some facts incorrect, but it is GREAT to see the case explored in more than a 30 second sound bite. What is extra great is that the report is from 1996 when the house was […]
Lizzie’s First Vlog
Very clever! This goes in the wish I thought of that category!
More (Moor) Murders
I have always been interested in reading true crime. I don’t know if this comes from being the child of reading parents who passed such books onto me when they were finished, or if it was because I come from the city where Ted Bundy was finally convicted. The trial was held in my town. […]

This is scary
Found this on a Myspace site. The description says “my mom in my garage talking to something that messed with her car its pretty creepy no video just audio and captions.” I can hear it when I turn the volume way up. This isn’t a joke movie, one of the hundreds that are posted that […]

In an opinion piece in the Ledger Dispatch of Jackson, CA, letter writer Joe Dirickx penned a letter titled “More handgun laws are not the answer.” He cites various instances where major crimes were committed by people who would have stopped at nothing to do their dastardly deeds. Of course, here we have the standard […]

Personal Response Systems and Lizzie
Lizzie makes the news in such unexpected ways! Personal response systems are like televsion remote clickers, and are used by teachers and others to assess learning and opinions in real time.

She’s Everywhere
In an interesting article on a completely non-Lizzie related matter, about the WWII collection of a former war correspondent for the New York Sun, whose surviving son Terry put together and donated to the Margaret Chase Smith Library Center in Skowhegan, the subject of Lizzie Borden arises. Robert C. McManus, who died in 2000 at […]

As past President of the Fall River Historical Society and a Fall River historian, 94 year old […]
Mondo Lizzie’s New Frock
If you noticed my silence and wondered what was up, it was not because I was still fishing. Mondo Lizzie was experiencing some web problems. The code that was used to construct the site had some issues of compatibility with most Internet browsers and interfered with the viewing experience. In other words, the code broke! […]

I am off to adventures yet unknown. Gone fishin’ for a while without a telephone. No Internet or TV or radio or cable, just fishin’ for a while, be back when I am able. Thanks to Harry Widdows for the fake Lizzie photo!

I found a lovely article about Pine Ridge Cemetery—known as the final resting place from some rather famous pets, including Richard Byrd’s dog Igloo and Lizzie Borden’s beloved dogs Donald Stuart, Royal Nelson, and Laddie Miller. Link to Boston.com From my own collection of my visit there in August of 2006.
