No newsletter this month. Too busy.

Dial "D" for "Durst"
Murder defendant Robert Durst has a light moment during a break in his trial in Galveston, Texas, Monday, Sept. 22, 2003. Durst is accused of killing his neighbor Morris Black, then dismembering the body and throwing body pieces INTO Galveston Bay in September 2001. (AP Photo/LM Otero)
I’ve been getting a lot of search engine activity on “ROBERT DURST” lately. Of course it’s no small wonder as it’s front page news in NYC, PA and Texas. For the loose stragglers on the web, let me get you up to speed:
- The Case of Robert Durst – Galveston Daily News
- Attorneys: Durst Killed Out of Fear – Associated Press
- All about millionaire murderer Robert Durst – Crime Library
Readers Digest version: After his wife’s disappearance, Millionaire New York Real Estate heir Robert Durst flees the unwanted media attention, posing himself as a mute elderly woman. Becomes a suspect as neighbor Morris Black’s body parts are found floating in Galveston Bay. After jumping bail, Durst is arrested for shoplifting in Pennsylvania six weeks later.
A Deadly Secret: The strange disappearance of Kathie Durst – By Matt Birkbeck – Former Pocono Record Columnist untangles this intriguing tale for People Magazine. It takes place 20 years before Black’s murder, and I recommend the book highly for some insight to Robert Durst and what started it all… It’s also been uncovered on the site that more murders in Northern California is being investigated with ties to Durst. The plot sickens.
… and I’m not saying all this and plugging the book just because I was part of the design team who put the site together for Matt.
I’m proud to be a part of it all.
Uhm, I meant the web project, not the murders… you knew that’s what I meant, right?

More witty comebacks
A couple of months ago, I posted “Clever comebacks you can use”. Based on simple remarks that slip out of my mouth on any ordinary day.
Since then, countless women across the globe were addressed with such lines as “What beautiful children you have. Adopted?”.
Here’s some new ones FROM the “I can’t believe you just said that” files. FROM my upcoming book: “Like Morton Downey Jr. (Except I’m still alive)” Feel free to use them in your comments next time some anonymous ballbuster decides to pay you a visit, or on your boss, or on your darling in-laws.

Thanks Jann!
Whenever I become disgusted with the entire human race, ready to unplug my computer forever and throw it out a window (where, hopefully, it will squish a human or three, and maybe a stray cat)…
… someone special comes along to remind you that people *DO* care, is willing to make a difference in someone’s life, expecting nothing in return, and restores hope for humanity all over again.
That would be Jann of SweetAspirations.Com.
She’s always been somewhat of a guardian angel to my kids and me. A few years ago, when I needed to get the kids back home, she was one of many wonderful people to respond and help with donations and rescue them with the BrooksKidz Defense Fund.
… besides a generous donation to the Pennsylvania Music Foundation, she recently sent me an Amazon gift certificate for my birthday. 
To which I got several family gifts: Books on drawing, including How To Draw Comics The Marvel Way…
… which everyone knows is the HOLY SCRIPTURES for aspiring comic book artists (Gawd, the memories seeing that book again brought back!):
