I knew the craziness had no bounds when a conspiracy hobbyist wrote that
Greer shot JFK with a gun that fired shellfish toxin. That's taking a
stupid idea and throwing in some nuttiness. It's amazing how many people
have convinced themselves that the sun reflecting off Kellerman's head is
a pistol in Greer's hand. It's been a while since I've read anyone
advocating that one, but conspiracy theories are like zombies. They never
really die. When Chris/mainframetech was still around, he was touting
Doug Horne's refurbished version of David Lifton's Invasion of the Body
Snatchers theory. I'm sure somewhere out there in cyberspace, someone is
still advocating for that one.

The Single Bullet Theory.
Yes, it is merely coincidental that both victims jerk at the same
time...

And also coincidental that computer modeling shows both men were lined
up one in front of the other from the vantage someone was seen shooting.
Also coincidental that live fire testing produced similar wounding.

The mention of the boarding house got me looking into it. It was my
understanding it was torn down...

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2012/11/30/oswald-apartment-demolition/1738365/

But then I find it was rehabbed (that had to cost a bit, it was in
pretty bad shape)....

Wikipedia on the rooming house...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Harvey_Oswald_Rooming_House

Amazing, Oswald paid a little more than a dollar a day, and that
included Earlene Roberts cleaning the room. As far as what Greg Parker was
asking about how Oswald got to work, this article says the boarding house
was only two miles a way, well within walking distance.

Greg Parker seems to be your typical hobbyist bitten by the conspiracy
bug, if anything goes against his ideas it is cavalierly dismissed, with
no regard to the notion that the more fantastic things you pile on, the
less likely your ideas are to be valid. If his ideas require that the
phone number to the boarding house that appeared in Mrs Paine`s phone book
needed to be planted, then planted it was. If his ideas require diverse
people to be working in concert to make it appear that Oswald was guilty,
than that is what happened.

Might be interesting for someone to play the opposite game, dismiss all
his favorite evidence as having been planted by a sinister cabal trying to
make it appear like there was a conspiracy.

Or better yet, a conspiracy involving a guilty Oswald who fired all the
shots to make him appear innocent.

They deliberately swapped out the evidence to destroy the chain of
possession so Oswald couldn't be convicted.

They planted a Mauser in the building to make it appear Oswald didn't
shoot the President.

They used an automatic to kill Tippit to point the finger at someone else
as Oswald only owned a revolver.

They altered the body to make it appear all the shots came from the front,
but botched it badly.

Let's start a movement!

Here's another batch of hilarity (courtesy of a CTer named Prudhomme this
time). And, no, I didn't just make up those final quotes by Prudhomme in
this discussion. He actually had the 'nads to say this to me in 2014....

"Davey, you've got nothing, and you've always had nothing." -- Robert
Prudhomme

If Oswald did not live at the rooming house, where did Oswald live? Ask
Parker for THAT evidence.

Neither Earlene Roberts nor Gladys Johnson made any money off the house.
Roberts was only the housekeeper, an employee - and she died in the 1960s,
sometime after the assassination. She owned no share of the house. Gladys
Johnson and her husband owned the house (they are both deceased), and it
was kept in the family, being passed down to the kids and now the
grandkids. It's the grandkids who are selling it (or who have sold it) --
nearly 60 years later. That's some long-range master planning by Gladys
Johnson.

Why did Oswald give the rooming house address to the FBI Agent Manning C.
Clements in his interrogation session on 11/23/1963 when he was asked for
background information - birthday, relatives, military service, employment
history, recent residences, etc.?

https://www.history-matters.com/archive/jfk/wc/wr/html/WCReport_0321a.htm

Of course, no amount of evidence will convince someone committed to a
belief in a conspiracy like Parker and the lack of any evidence for an
alternative living quarters for Oswald won't persuade him either.

He'd rather believe Oswald was homeless than lived at the rooming house,
apparently, despite the evidence pointing to the rooming house.
