Re: May Discusses The Visit to the Playboy Mansion

It's disturbing to read, in Olsen's book, about the extent of Joseph
Kennedy Sr's control over his sons.  In fact, I'm learning from the book
about Meyer that she is one of the few women involved with JFK was not
merely used by him for sex.  She was the dominant person in the
relationship, viewing Kennedy as a broken man in need of help, having
been pushed into politics against his will.  She had requested LSD from
Timothy Leary so that she could take the drug with Kennedy, hoping
(having faith in Leary's promises of the drug's supposed benefits) to
make him happier.
Sharon Tate and Roman Polanski actually lived on Palisades Beach Road
for a time, before moving to the Chateau Marmont (where she was happy
but he wasn't) and then to Cielo Drive.
Peter Lawford's former house, where Lennon lived with May Pang, Keith
Moon, Harry Nilsson, Ringo and others was on the same beautiful (back
then anyway) stretch -- albeit years later than Tate had, obviously.
