#4 Seeing the word "Decapitated" beneath the picture of Miss Mansfield gives rise to a bad memory.

#12 Rumors that Mansfield was decapitated are untrue, though she did suffer severe head trauma. This urban legend was spawned by the appearance in police photographs of a crashed automobile with its top virtually sheared off, and what resembles a blonde-haired head tangled in the car's smashed windshield. It is believed that this was either a wig that Mansfield was wearing or was her actual hair and scalp.[35] The death certificate stated that the immediate cause of Mansfield's death was a "crushed skull with avulsion of cranium and brain." Following her death, the NHTSA began requiring an underride guard, a strong bar made of steel tubing, to be installed on all tractor-trailers. This bar is also known as a Mansfield bar.

#13 During the 50s it was customary for a man wearing a brimmed hat to place it on his lap during the screening of a movie. After a Mansfield movie some men were know to walk up to three blocks before the hat fell off their lap.

#16 GolfBravo: appreciate the second opinion you provided on the issue of Miss Manfield's demise. Bottom line: My Mom told me she was decapitated. whether true or not, I go to the grave believing same.

Merry Christmas. I like how it is you comment here at Rantburg (and other places if I'm not mistaken) without words but with pictures. Much enjoyed.

#17 I'm trying to fix the return function that takes users back to the referring page. That always hangs under other than IE.

#18 I've put the comments back the way they were, since it looks like there's a bug in there someplace. The new version's on the DSTP page still. I'll leave it there until they're working right.
