Great story! I think it's funny that people fall into the trap of believing that the Manson "family" were like a pack of vampires traveling around trying to brutally murder EVERYONE they ever came in contact with. I won't pretend to know the "facts" but I think that whoever WAS in the bus just appreciated your kindness to strangers. We've become a society of people who are fearful of everyone and anyone we don't know. I REFUSE to think that way. Not a religious person but a line from a favorite movie has always stuck in my head. "Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares." Here's a link to my BLOG about my bus and other stupid stuff. http://loveandducttape.blogspot.com/ Regards, Michael PS - I AB-SO-LUTELY ADORED YOU when you were on The Mommies TV Show. You're still a HOTTIE! Marilyn,

Manson and his "family" of criminals were all arrested in 1969. Carole King's "Tapestry" album didn't come out until 1971. Well, everyone exaggerates about their past, right?!!!

Amazing! What a great twist on “that which doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”–or in this case makes a strong story!

Amazing!
