I was contacted by Paul Haddad a couple of months ago. He has written several books on LA places and lifestyles. His new book that he writing has focus on Mulholland and we have spent some time on Mulholland going over places and secrets that have been lost over time that I know about from childhood. I have not mentioned these facts here because they didn't seem relevant however they are quite interesting.
Here is an example of his most recent books. You've probably seen them mentioned in the news at some time.  Paul gave me a copy of one of his books.  This is how he signed the book that he gave me.

Before contacting me, Paul had already read The Mulholland Experience and this Thread along with other similar resources.
During our discussions and drives we touched on many aspects of Mulholland including our Mulholland Legend, Charley Woit. He did some research and found what we have all been looking for, the truth. I was told by Charley's old friend Tiger Joe that Charley died exiting the 14 Freeway at the Sand Canyon Offramp going too fast for the turn. Paul found this during his research. From the Newhall Signal Newspaper, dated December 10, 1982  The Signal (center of the page)… says Charley died on Vasquez Cyn Road, gives a few short paragraphs. |

That's crazy! I always thought he died on a freeway.
I'll never look at Vasquez Canyon the same way now. I assume a lot of us have ripped through Vasquez without even thinking about it. Quote:

Notice the reference to Gentle Buzzard Mining Company? I believe that there is more to discover as we have talked about in the past. |
