Happy Chronicles of Evil Birthday - James Ellroy

"Demon Dog of American Crime Fiction"

Born March 4th, 1948

“Good evening peepers, prowlers, pederasts, panty-sniffers, punks and pimps. I'm James Ellroy, the demon dog with the hog-log, the foul owl with the death growl, the white knight of the far right, and the slick trick with the donkey dick. I'm the author of 16 books, masterpieces all; they precede all my future masterpieces. These books will leave you reamed, steamed and drycleaned, tie-dyed, swept to the side, true-blued, tattooed and bah fongooed. These are books for the whole fuckin' family, if the name of your family is Manson.”

He based this belief on a number of factors, one of which included eye-witness descriptions of the killer which didn't resemble Berkowitz at all.
