OMG, we went to our library branch today just a few blocks from our house and Crazy Library Lady was sitting in the foyer, rocking, plastic bags at her feet, and reading a dictionary-like book out loud.

No phone. Just chanting and rocking.....everyday. The kids don't even notice her anymore. The only reason I gave her any notice is because I'd thought about starting a thread about her and any other local crazies out there.

For example, Doll Lady who used to carry these dirty dolls around town because (supposedly) her children died in a fire.

Or Superman/Spiderman who used to walk around downtown in full costume and in full character.

Or Box Man, who used to drive around town in a huge ass station wagon, collecting cardboard boxes and flattening them and filling his highly flammable house to the ceiling with cardboard........

Or my favorite....Martha the witch who used to "cast spells" on us as we threw rotten fruit at her mailbox in high school......and who used to drive around town in long flowy dresses with a dog in a basket on her bike ala Wicked Witch of the West!
