Greetings Infomaniacs,

Holy midterm, Batman! I took the last two days off work as "vacation" days, but only so I could work on a huge midterm project that is due tonight. One of these days I will take off for fun, I hope!

Enjoy!
Melissa

TODAY'S MYSTERY QUOTE
QUOTE: "One must desire something to be alive."

HINT: (1857-1945), American novelist, short-story writer, and poet.


RANDOM TIDBITS
John Herbert Dillinger was born on June 22, 1903, in the Oak Hill section of Indianapolis.

Bonnie Elizabeth Parker was born October 1, 1910, in Rowena, Texas. Clyde "Champion" Chestnut Barrow was born on March 24, 1909, in Ellis County, Texas.

Kate 'Ma' Barker, birth name Arizona Clark was born in 1871 and died on January 16, 1935. Her children were undoubtedly criminals and were in the Barker-Karpis Gang.

September, 1933, until July, 1934, he and his violent gang terrorized the Midwest, killing 10 men, wounding 7 others, robbing banks and police arsenals, and staging 3 jail breaks -- killing a sheriff during one and wounding 2 guards in another.

Other members of the Barrow gang known or thought to have murdered are Raymond Hamilton, W.D. Jones, Buck Barrow, Joe Palmer, and Henry Methvin.

Many, including Karpis, have suggested that the myth of Ma Barker being the mastermind behind the Karpis-Barker gang was encouraged by J. Edgar Hoover and his fledgling FBI to justify his agency's killing of an old lady. She was shot dead when the FBI raided the cottage she was renting with her son Fred. It was Fred, who was also killed in the raid, that had been the Bureau's main target.
