I was working with my boss the last day for this partnership of various food service ventures in the Reno-Washoe Valley area and that happens. Quite an exit. I was on my way to the U of Denver soon after that to start my studies on my MA in Librarianship. The other partner whom I had discussed crime and punishment a lot with later became the warden at the Nevada Prison in Lovelock. Place where OJ Simpson was kept.
I knew this man for a long time as I think I worked for them from around 1977-1983. We, of course, did talk about the Michelle Mitchell 2-24-1976 murder and its investigation quite a bit. He was very well read in criminology, sociology, and related subjects. I also hope he looks at NOTHING from time-to-time.

Memorial Day Flash Flood, Part II - Tahoe Weekly
All of this would make quite an interesting movie.
I had worked as a dishwater for a few weeks in 1977 at the Rapscallion at nights, quit and got a job with this partnership. I managed the Bower's Mansion concession stand the rest of that summer. The Rapscallion had just opened.
