Quote :

Cecelia Ann Shepard and Bryan Calvin Hartnell, two college students who had also made a spontaneous trip from Angwin, were picnicking at Twin Oak Ridge, 1 a peninsula on the western shore of the lake, at twilight when they were approached by a man later described as 5'8" to 6' tall, dark-haired, and heavyset, wearing a dark jacket and dark clothing that seemed sloppy or dishevelled. Cecelia, who saw the man first, noted that he was wearing glasses. He seemed to Hartnell at the time to be "in his thirties and fairly unremarkable", 2 though the young man would describe a larger and possibly younger individual after getting a closer and more dangerous look.

Before getting too close to the couple, he ducked behind one of the two nearby trees, put on an unusual four-cornered hood, and emerged about 20 feet away. The hood was well sewn, black, and had a bib that fell almost to the man's waistline. Embroidered on it was the crossed-circle design that had appeared in the 3-Part Cryptogram and its cover letters and would serve as the Zodiac's signature in most of his letters to come. Holes had been cut for the eyes and mouth, and though clip-on sunglasses had been added to further protect the killer's identity, Hartnell caught a glimpse of greasy brownish hair through the holes in the mask. On his belt, he wore a long knife in a wooden sheath and an empty leather holster. A large semiautomatic pistol was in his right hand and he pointed it at Shepard and Hartnell as he spoke.

"I want your money and your car keys," he said in a calm monotone. "I want your car to go to Mexico". 3 Hartnell handed him the keys to his Volkswagen and all the change from his pockets. The man pocketed the coins and dropped the keys on the picnic blanket, then holstered his weapon. Hartnell made a vague offer of help to the man in order to escape injury, to which the man responded, "No. Time's running short." The man then stated that he was an escaped convict from the Pacific Northwest, that he had killed a prison guard there, and that he had "a stolen car and nothing to lose. I'm flat broke."

Though the town mentioned by the killer is generally given as Deer Lodge, Montana, a reliable source reports that the state was not Montana but Colorado. An early interview with Hartnell has the badly wounded student saying that he can't remember the exact name of the town, but that it "had some double name, like Fern Lock or something." His interviewer suggests "Lodge," and Hartnell agrees. 4 "Deer Lodge" was then suggested as a northwest city with a federal penitentiary, and the victim said, "That could be it, I guess". 5 Subsequent inquiries to the northwestern authorities revealed that there had been no such jailbreak or murder. Hartnell, who survived the attack, said that the man's voice was unremarkable, sounding neither educated nor illiterate, and though Hartnell could not detect an accent, he said the killer did have a slight lilt or drawl to his voice. 6

Still hoping for a peaceful resolution, Hartnell tried to relax the man by talking to him, and they spoke for a few minutes about his car before the man removed some of the clothesline from his belt and ordered Shepard to hogtie her friend. Hartnell balked at the idea, and the man began to shout, "Get down! Right now!" 7 Shepard acquiesced, and as she did so, she took out her wallet and tossed it to the man, who ignored it. When she was finished, the hooded man tied her up and tightened the knots that she had used on Hartnell. It was at this point that the young man noticed that his attacker's hands were shaking, and that he seemed very nervous. "I'm going to have to stab you people," the stranger told them.

"I couldn't stand to see her stabbed," Hartnell responded. "Stab me first". 8

"I'll do just that," the killer replied.

He was never caught. Terrorized the bay area for years. When I was high school I tried to read the book about him but couldn't finish it. I finally picked it up again my senior year and read the whole thing. It scared the living crap out of me. There are a certain amount of murders that are definitely his. Then there are others that might be his based upon the profile. All the deaths were somehow associated with bodies of water for example. I was a delivery boy back then and ended up on Water street. Turns out that is one of the places where a body was literally broken in half, hog tied, and thrown over the fence into a field across the street. A year later another body was dumped there in exactly the same fashion. I kept running into all these murder scenes from the book and it was just nasty to think about.

The knife he used was double-edged and about a foot long, possibly a bayonet. It has been described as looking made or repaired by hand, with wooden handle slabs, two brass rivets, and white tape where the guard would normally be. Hartnell was stabbed six times, and a retired police source confirms a fatal ten for Shepard, who died of her wounds two days later. Leaving them both for dead, the attacker walked to Hartnell's nearby car and, using a black magic marker, inscribed his crossed-circle logo and the dates of his Bay Area attacks on the door.



The Zodiac was notorious for doing his crimes just far enough away from the authorities so that they couldn't get there in time or just far enough so that an ambulance couldn't get there in time.

If a baby is born prematured, let say one month.. does the missing month is added to the count to assign the zodiac sign, or if the date of birth if the time the zodiac sign is assigned???

There are 13 constellations but because the Romans were afraid of the lucky number 13 they ditched on in the calender.

Stupid.

Also, the zodiac signs that are commonly quoted are based upon the position of the sun at the time of your birth about 2000 years ago. You have to use the revised astronomical calander to find the position of the sun on your birthdate. So I'm supposed to be a Virgo but I think I'm actually a Leo.

Well your sign might not change so don't give up hope that the positions of the stars are affecting you and that these different positions will bring new meaning to your life.

if you were born early, then you might have traits of the sign you were SUPPOST to be, but you're still what you were meant to be......

I'm taurus, but I was suppost to be aries....I was late coming out. I'm mostly taurus, but I have times when I feel like an aries.

Well, thats great. A Taurian Monkey. What a wicked combo! Truly, your the first person I've met who has that combo and its interesting.

Astrology is terrific for semi-insightful info.

Its just terrific to read all of those gracious superlatives that those astrological writers use in their books.

Then you get to the not-so-gracious foibles that they point out and the shite hits the proverbial fan.

Dragon ( 1916 - 1928 - 1940 - 1952 - 1964 - 1976 - 1988 )

Full of vitality and enthusiasm, the Dragon is a popular individual even with the reputation of being foolhardy and a "big mouth" at times. You are intelligent, gifted, and a perfectionist but these qualities make you unduly demanding on others. You would be well-suited to be an artist, priest, or politician. Some Dragons: Louisa May Alcott, SusanB. Anthony, Joan of Arc, Pearl Buck, Sigmund Freud, Theodore Seuss Geisel, John Lennon, Florence Nightingale, Pat Schroeder, Mae West.

Being that I studied Astronomy people would have no clue what that was and think I studied Astrology. That's kinda annoying. So after a while I'd just say, "Yeah, Astrology, let me see your hand". I'd then look at their hand very intently, stare them in the face with a panicked look, and say "Ah crap, you're going to die!!"

you also said you were Virgo?

"Mercury Rules the Sign of Virgo
On the downside: You can be critical, petty, self-centered and picky.

Your good qualities include: Industrious, methodical, humane, loving.

Learning to accept others for the way they are and not the way you think they should be could be your lifes work."

but you said you might be more of a Leo right?

"The Sun Rules the Sign of Leo
On the downside: You may have a heavy ego, and you can be arrogant, vain, and extravagant.
Your good qualities include: A strong vitality, honorable, creative, generous, dignified.
Developing your own self identity and mode of creative energy expression will be your ongoing life's work. "

:twisted: so which one is it?
