Mad Love

A Macabre Tale of Love

Jim and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they  were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out.

 When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna’s heroic act, she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be mentally stable. When she went to tell Edna the news she said, “Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you’re being discharged, since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness. The bad news is, Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you
saved him. I am so sorry, but he’s dead.”

Edna replied, “He didn’t hang himself, I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?”

A Trick Or Treat Question

 
 
 

What kind of Halloween Candy Are You?

I Am Candy Corn



Your Halloween personality is whimsical, colorful, and creative.
 Each year, Halloween can’t start soon enough for you.

You tend to go all out for Halloween.
 You decorate like crazy and always dress up.
 
So.

It’s Not Just About The Candy

There’s a lot of things I like about Halloween-

first of all

nobody thinks it’s weird that I have a  skeleton in my living room- sitting in a chair- by my phone-I bought him from Bucky’s Boneyard, I named him Edgar

(click the pic to got to Bucky’s Site)

I  also love the bite sized candy snacks because I’m not happy with sitting down and eating a boring old candy bar- I like them best with  wrappers decorated with bats and ghosts and zombies stamped on them.

Most of all I like anything dealing with Zombies because they are the dumbest monsters to ever be dreamed up and I take a certain weird pleasure in biting their candy heads off.

You know, before I do a little trephination.

But most of all I enjoy Halloween because of the movies-

the vendors put them all out there, old ones, new ones, whatever, which is good because they’re all good-in their weird way.

These are the best of the Strange and Weird-

And my personal favorites.

Enjoy!

The legend of La Llorona – a Medea-like myth that has haunted the Americas for more than 500 years. Now this supernatural spirit hunts again. Over the course of one ominous day this anguished soul terrorizes New York City escalating her appetite for vengeance. A young mother comes under her spell and collides with two detectives a witch/curandera – and the many who suffer this horrifying vengeance. Evocative and suspenseful haunting and disturbing this supernatural thriller brings to life the chilling legend proving there is no rest for a mother who murders her child and that La Llorona is real

dvd and review from:::

From amazon.com

Now this film is one of my favorite Sci-Fi Horror films of all time I only watch it once a year so as to not ruin the experience for myself-

I knew it as 5 Million Years To Earth, but it’s listed  at IMDB as

I like this review, it’s from IMDB.

Workers excavating at an underground station in London uncover the skeletal remains of ancient apes with large skulls. Further digging reveals what is at first believed to be an unexploded German bomb from World War II. Missile expert Colonel Breen is brought in to investigate, accompanied by Professor Bernard Quartermass. When the interior of the “missile” is exposed, a dead locust-like creature that resembles the devil is found. It is determined by Quartermass that these “locusts” are evil Martians who altered the brains of our simian ancestors to eventually lay claim to the Earth. When Quartermass’s suspicion that the missile can reactivate the dormant evil in humans is confirmed, all hell breaks loose.

don’t stay home because you think it’s a lock

I love trucks from Tonka, I love Willy Wonka,
I love Barack Obama in La Casa Blanca
But don’t stay home because you think it’s a lock
Now dont just sit there, vote Barack!

mc howie and julie k

MC Howie and Julie K are back with “Vote Barack” (to Young MC’s “Bust a Move”)This heres a song for Barack Obama
Its mostly comedy, with a little drama
But first, there are some things that we must explain
About the senior senator John McCain
He was John McNasty at the last debate
He was spitting venom, he was full of hate
He didnt seem presidential, he just looked irate
But maybe it was just pain from an enlarged prostate

Contrast that with our man, Obama
Props for takin jabs but staying calmer
Than Mahatma Ghandi or the Dalai Lama
Now here’s a question mark and here’s a comma
Baracks the man for the highest office
Maybe finally, we can get this country off this
Path, and our potential unlock
So dont just sit there, vote Barack!

Now, lemme talk a little ’bout Joe the Plumber
Tryin to win votes for Dumb and Dumber
Sayin Baracks tax plan is the worst
Well, maybe he should pay his own taxes first
Were on a mission, and we’re wishin’
Someone can cure this economic condition
It sure wasnt Bush, it wont be McCain
And it wont be Sarah cause shes got no brain

Now the verdicts in on Troopergate
She abused her power in her very own state
She stings like a bee, she spreads lies like pollen
I dont like her, and neither does Colin
I love trucks from Tonka, I love Willy Wonka,
I love Barack Obama in La Casa Blanca
But don’t stay home because you think it’s a lock
Now dont just sit there, vote Barack!

One of the few red states left is Oklahoma
I guess theyre not concerned about his melanoma
But you know what they say, were just a heart beat away
From Moose-alini as the Pres, and thats not OK
She likes to fish, and she likes to hunt
But you know what I think? It think shes just a
Kind of politician that John McCain
Chose as his VP for political gain

Yes, its clear that he picked her to get female votes
Shes cute, but shes a wolf in a Dall Sheeps coat
When she doesnt memorize her lines straight by rote
She cant produce a single answer from her neo-con throat
But study Barack, baby, if you can
Hes like Albert Einstein with a health care plan
If you listen you can hear this opportunity knock
So seize it, nation, vote Barack!

Now Baracks number two is our man Joe Biden,
Maybe he is not the most excitin
But great advice to Barak, hell be providin
And over the Senate, hell be presidin
Some of you might not have been alive
When John McCain was in the Keating Five
Senate ethics committee said his judgment was poor
Does that sound familiar? Iraq war.

Now were talking to you, if youre in a swing state
It could be up to you you gotta pull your weight
You gotta take control, get up and take a stroll,
Head over to the polls, man I love Tootsie Rolls
I dont care if youre Red, I dont care if youre Blue,
I dont care if youre Christian, Muslim or Jew
Lets show the world that our democracy is not a crock
So get out and vote, and vote Barack!

What If Evita Sang Sarah Palin?

 
 
Singing Hockey Mom and Piano playing Moose singing out against Caribou Barbie
…don’t speak for me Sarah Palin!
The truth is I do not like you
What if McCain were chief and then he died ah?
You’d be more scary
then al-Qaeda

They keep putting boobs into the White House…so they might as well be hers.
