I did not know that, and I was once part of a college trivia team called Ed Gein's Upholstery. We even had bowling shorts made. I know for a fact (because I remember it) that he died at Mendota State Hospital (which wasn't really a hospital but rather a looney bin). Us kids used to tease each other by saying things like "You belong in Mendota" which was code for you're crazy.

Lady Fingers.
What did Ed Gein give to his girl on Valentine's Day?
I hate Sarah Jessica Parker, Robin Williams, Tim Robbins, Susan Saradon, the BJ Hunnicut guy, brussel sprouts, the Boston Red Sox, commies and well, lawyers.

Wait a minute?
That's not Meade?
See what happens when I don't steal pictures from his flickerstream?
Dahmer was from Wisconsin, too.
What's up with that?
That's not Dillinger? Who, by the way, made Johnny Wad look small.

A box of farmer's fannies.
LOL Bowling Shirts
And to think I could have spent my entire life knowing absolutely nothing about this particular native Wisconsin son.
Thanks, Trooper. I have led too sheltered an existence.

Here it was the now defunct "Camarillo".

I wonder if he wore his celebrated "nipple belt" when he played second base.
