We've had nobody for the better part of a decade. We still buy candy, but no one shows up on the street. Never was much in for decorating the house. Long gone are the days when I was a kid when I went up the street to a neighbors haunted tent house and ran home screaming. Lol.

I dunno, a lot of people are just...like...weird man. It was mostly doctors and nurses and firefighters, construction worker and other occupations easily identified by some outfit. Occasionally 6 year-olds in suits with a briefcase being a lawyer. Kind of harder to figure out an identifiable uniform for plumber, electrician, secretary, teacher and soul-numbed middle manager.

I think Trunk or Treat replaced the mall based events that replaced door-to-door stranger danger. But then malls died and became like...haunted derelicts too scary to go into and a lot of Church's dropped their events (or at least they're not advertising them at the local churches anymore - assume they've decided Halloween is anti-christian or whatever.

My former elementary school changed Halloween to "Careerween" and only allowed costumes if it represented a career because scary stuff is to scary/demonic/whatever. I assume they still do it, haven't been involved in years since I changed where I worked.

It was of Fantasy - one of the publicity shots of her and the floating head (had to crop out the floating head to make it work as an avatar). Sorry for the confusion. Should have added italics to House to be clear!

Love House - been a few years since I watched it. I had one of the leads as my avatar back when Criterion released it.

I rewatched Sleepy Hollow a few weeks ago. Lots of fun.

Warning, this one is a bit sweary:

Richard Roundtree

Suzanne Somers

Peeping Tom is a good movie. Been a couple of years since I last saw it though.

Mark Goddard, probably best known as Maj. Don West in the original Lost in Space.

I think Marvel's multiverse is going to keep coming on strong (it kind of has to with Kang as the villain, and alternate timelines setting up multiverses). DCU once the Gunn era starts hasn't given much multiverse crossover noise (they plan to keep The Batman and Joker series as their own thing, I believe branding them Elseworlds like in the comics to indicate they're not in the same universe as the Gunn stuff).

Keith Giffen one of my favorite creators in comics - Legion of Superheroes, Vext, Justice League, Dr Fate, Trencher, PunX, The Heckler, Lobo, Blue Beetle, amid many other works...RIP.

Kevin is it. Not sure if any wrestlers of the time will get cameos, given that I think they're stressing the biographical tragedies.

I hear OCP is working on a fantastic idea, currently referred to as ED-209...

My understanding - correct me if I'm wrong - is that the money was already set aside by Congress during the Trump administration for the wall, and since Congress declined to rescind the funding when the current Homeland Security Secretary asked, the money has to be used for its intended purpose as allocated. Biden is irrelevant <insert joke here>.

My dad was telling me when that he remembered a game where the Bears were playing the Falcons and he could see on a play Butkus with Falcons center Jeff Van Note in a headlock punching him in his face/facemask/helmet. A few plays later, Butkus went out with an injury and he always wondered if the Falcons offensive line had targeted Butkus for payback leading to the injury or if it was an accident. Dad didn't say if this was the injury that Butkus went out on in '73 (I believe a groin injury) that lead to the doctor's saying his knees were so bad they didn't think he should be playing which ultimately lead him to retire. Anyhow, always enjoyed Butkus in his second career as an actor when he'd pop-up in tv or movies. It seemed he ended up playing mostly weird nice guys rather than what you'd think his football reputation would have him playing. RIP.

Happy soon to be Birthday!

Seems like I need to add Suburban Sasquatch to my watch list.
