Yelp says that Wilson is closed. Drat! I was hoping to catch lunch there next time I was in L.A. Michael has a very good reputation as a chef, I suspect he'll land on his feet pretty quickly. I'd love to see him compete on Iron Chef America. If anyone knows where Michael's hanging his chef's hat these days, please let us know. I think he is now working at 3 Square Cafe In Venice.. |

On March 23, 1969, Manson entered, uninvited, upon 10050 Cielo Drive, Los Angeles, which he had known as the residence of Terry Melcher.This was Rudi Altobelli's property, where Melcher was no longer the tenant; as of that February, the tenants were Sharon Tate and Roman Polanski.
Manson was met by Shahrokh Hatami, a photographer and Tate friend, who was there to photograph Tate in advance of her departure for Rome the next day. Having seen Manson through a window as Manson approached the main house, Hatami had gone onto the front porch to ask him what he wanted. When Manson told Hatami he was looking for someone whose name Hatami did not recognize, Hatami informed him the place was the Polanski residence. Hatami advised him to try "the back alley," by which he meant the path to the guest house, beyond the main house.
Concerned over the stranger on the property, Hatami was now down on the front walk, to confront Manson. When Tate appeared behind Hatami, in the house's front door, and asked who was calling, Hatami said a man was looking for someone. Hatami and Tate maintained their positions while Manson, without a word, went back to the guest house, returned a minute or two later, and left.
That evening, Manson returned to the property and again went back to the guest house, where, presuming to enter the enclosed porch, he spoke with Rudi Altobelli, who was just coming out of the shower. Although Manson asked for Melcher, Altobelli felt Manson had
come looking for him, as is consistent with prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi's later discovery that Manson had apparently been to the place on earlier occasions since Melcher's departure from it.
Speaking through the inner screen door, Altobelli told Manson that Melcher had moved to Malibu; he lied that he did not know Melcher's new address. In response to a question from Manson, Altobelli said he himself was in the entertainment business, although, having met Manson the previous year, at Dennis Wilson's home, he was sure Manson already knew that. At Wilson's, Altobelli had complimented Manson lukewarmly on some of his musical recordings that Wilson had been playing.
When Altobelli informed Manson he was going out of the country the next day, Manson said he'd like to speak with him upon his return; Altobelli lied that he would be gone for more than a year. In response to a direct question from Altobelli, Manson explained that he had been directed to the guest house by the persons in the main house; Altobelli expressed the wish that Manson not disturb his tenants.
Manson left. As Altobelli flew with Sharon Tate to Rome the next day, Tate asked him whether "that creepy-looking guy" had gone back to the guest house the day before.....

Bravo to Brian and Melinda for adopting this little boy
who may not have had the privilege of having a loving family
and a decent education.
... and who stands a very good chance of being 'orphaned' in his late teens. No one is guaranteed they will have one or both their parents past tomorrow.. When this boy is 15, Brian will be 81 (if he's till with us), Melinda 77. I'd say that puts the odds somewhat higher than normal. Yes it does .. but do you know the backstory of this child ? I think whatever time he has his new parents will be beneficial to him..It's obvious you have a problem with Brian and Melinda.. |
