via boingboing: a radar magazine story reports on bill geerhart, an unemployed thirtysomething, who sent letters to oprah winfrey, donald rumsfeld, and larry flynt while posing as a ten year old. “little billy” also sent letters to (and received responses from) richard ramirez, charles manson, ted kacynzski, and eric menendez.this is an old bit, perhaps best executed in don novello’s classic the lazlo letters. the prisoners’ responses weren’t terribly revealing, since billy’s short letters didn’t give them much to work with. that said, i’m just a bit more sympathetic to clarence thomas after reading him tell billy that he likes egg mcmuffins and pretty much everything at mcdonalds.
