Was it sheer boredom, which made 34 year old Aretha Jonesfrom Boston nod off in front of her TV set and burn to death?Was it a case of spontaneous self combustion? While watching 'The Bold and the Beautiful' and falling asleep,her cigarette must have dropped in her lap, settingfire to her garment and underwear.This though seems completely inconsistent with the victim's obsession: a search of the flat in the aftermathproduced hundreds of unsent letters to Ridge Forrester (Ronn Moss), star of the TV series 'The Bold and the Beautiful'.  There also were countless magazine clippings pasted all over the flat. Old TV guides showed messageslike "He speaks my language, he is my GOD." One of these scribblings on the margins of a TVguide reads: "Ridge is the best actor in the world.  Maria,says, he looks like a cheap porno star. I hate Maria!!!Ridge should get an Oscar. Or become president. I like his chin. It makes me shiver."

This clipping was found pinned above a carton withunopened cans of tin food.  What could have been the deeper reason? The degree of every angle matchesexactly the degree of the real thing: the Bermuda triangle !!!

Half embedded in a pizza, this outdated magazine clipping of Ronn Moss as Ridge Forrester showed the scribbled message:"Ridge for President!!!"
