Dead: Edna Milton Chadwell, at 84. Who? She was the last madam of La Grange, Texas' legendary Chicken Ranch, immortalized by the musical "The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas." She bought the place in 1952 and it was pretty open in its operation until Houston's legendary, flamboyant TV consumer reporter Marvin Zindler exposed it and got it shut down. The musical came later, of course. She wasn't a fan of the movie version of the musical, but if not for that film, and ZZ Top's song "La Grange," you'd not know about it, would you?
