Nobody knows who the murderer referred to as 'Jack the Ripper' actually was...the crimes have never been solved.

The name 'Jack the Ripper' was almost certainly created by the Press to stimulate interest and therefore their sales. It was first seen on a letter sent to the Central News Agency (not the Police) however the letter is not thought to have been genuinely from the murderer, but, as i say, a ploy by the Press to sell newspapers.

Jack was a common name and is used to denote an unknown male in a variety of sayings, such as Jack of all trades, Master of none.

'The first modern serial killer', 'He gave birth to the 20th century'...that's what they say.

Whatever Joe he was, he strikes me as pretty radical...

[babybird67]

is that a confession Joe?

was it you all along?

Please. We all know his name was John. Only his closest friends called him Jack.

[Monty]

Some people called him the Gangster of love.

Had his real name been Clive, I for one could understand why he went out and ripped women to shreds....

Hello. Anyone for a nice English name like Montague? Of course, he needs a John in there somewhere to be called Jack, right? I've hit it! Montague John! Will that do?

When I was seven years old and my sister was having her first baby I begged her to call him Clive! I wanted him to be called either Clive or Cyril (the Cyril Lord carpet chain adverts were everywhere in those days). Thankfully she called him - Graham!

I've always thought the killer was a local 'nobody' (i.e. - not one of the high profile named suspects) but I've never even considered what his first name might have been.

Can anyone tell me why Lauren starts her missive with 'okay'? It doesn't make any sense at all.

Why has she got a down on capital letters? Are we to assume that English is not Laurens first language?

I'm assuming the post is simply a joke!

It's like totally not a joke! I was like trying to do similar research, and my wife was like "On no your not" and I was like "Whatever" and she was like "Okay....whatever" and I was like "Well i'm doing it anyway so chill"


On a sideline, does anyone know how to like totally get rid of a black eye?
