When I go shopping at the grocery and I’m waiting in line to be checked out
I don’t watch TV on those little screens above the cash registers.
I don’t reach for ” People ” magazine, or one of those snacks or paperbook books they put on those racks that divide the lines.
I’m pretty good about not going for the impulse items.
HOWEVER
I have been known to shove baby strollers, old people and seeing eye dogs out of my way in order to get my hands on the Weekly World News if Bat Boy was on the cover.
If you have to write stories about Vampires or Bat People, for heaven’s sake tell a good story- and I happen to think that the Bat Boy stories were darn great stories.
But I did find a neat Pirate Tune / Doctor Who mashup that looked like fun
so sing it in good health and enjoy the D.W. clips.
Force yourself.
It will be worth it.
“The Pirates That Don’t Do Anything”
we are the pirates we don’t do anything
we just stay at home, and lie around
and if you ask us, to do anything
we’ll just tell you, we don’t do anything
well I’ve never been to Greenland
and I’ve never been to Denver
and I’ve never buried treasure in ST Louie or ST Paul
and I’ve never been to Moscow
and I’ve never been to Tampa
and I’ve never been to Boston in the fall
we are the pirates we don’t do anything
we just stay at home, and lie around
and if you ask us, to do anything
we’ll just tell you, we don’t do anything
and I’ve never hoist the main sail
and I’ve never swabbed the poop deck
and I’ve never veered starboard, cause I’ve never sailed at all
and I’ve never walked the gang plank
and I’ve never owned a parrot.
and I’ve never been to Boston in the fall
we are the pirates we don’t do anything
we just stay at home, and lie around
and if you ask us, to do anything
we’ll just tell you, we don’t do anything
I’ve never plucked a rooster
and I am not too good at ping-pong
and I’ve never thrown my mashed potatoes up against the wall
and I’ve never kissed a chipmunk,
and I’ve never gotten head lice
and I have never been to Boston in the fall

and why they be so full of contradictions)
we don’t know what he did
but we’re down with captain kidd
we don’t wake up before lunch
but we all eat captain crunch
we don’t smoke, we don’t chew
we watch captain kangaroo
and I’ve never licked a spark-plug
and I’ve never sniffed a stink bug
and I’ve never painted Daisies on a big red rubber ball
and I’ve never bathed in yogurt
and I don’t look good in leggings
and I’ve never been to Boston in the fall
we are the pirates who don’t do anything
we just stay at home, and lie around
and if you ask us, to do anything
we’ll just tell you, we don’t do anything
we are the pirates we don’t do anything
we just stay at home, and lie around
and if you ask us, to do anything
we’ll just tell you, we don’t do anything
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

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.
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!

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.
