  1. new jersey certainly does not have the monopoly on psychos. a chap[ round my way who looked like an unwashed father christmas used to get on my bus to college and listen to his walkman; even though his headphones were from a gameboy and had no cable attached to the walkman – just the ear buds. then in quite a sophisticated vocabulary, proceeded to berate any teenage fashions shouting ‘you’re duplicating one another! DEE-OOP-LI-CATING!’. my mate and i christened him ‘duplication man’.

  2. Hi David, good to know your town has psychos, too. The funny thing about Belleville, NJ, is that it’s been producing psychos for generations. Our parents have stories about local Belleville psychos, Greg and I have stories, and people even younger than us have stories. There must be some toxic waste buried underneath Belleville’s soil.

    And I agree with Duplication Man about teenagers’ fashion. :)

  3. In the Midwest there are neighborhood psycho’s as well. We lived more rural but still had neighbors within short walking distance. If the back door was unlocked when we were gone, he would just come in and play with all the stuff in my room. We came home once and found him in there with toys out all over the place, he didn’t think anything was wrong and just kept playing. Needless to say my mother was freaked out and we always checked the doors when we left after that. Who knows how many times we didn’t catch him. He wasn’t the only “psycho” in the area, I would say it was about a 15-25% ratio of psycho’s to normals depending on the day.

  4. I lived in Belleville from Sept 1991 to Sept 1993. Only knew one real nutjob, but he lived across the fence on the Newark side. Personally I believe Bayonne has more of a screwball to normal person ratio than any other place on Earth.
