10/27/2004: "Happy Halloween (Day One)"

alloween begins today! Well, technically, Halloween began last night when
the local Fox affiliate filmed a fair and balanced Halloween segment
featuring Paul Kircher, my nephew, members of the Philadelphia Alliance
of Critical Thinkers (PhACT), Wayne the groundskeeper (and he would've
gotten away with it too - if it weren't for those meddling kids.) and me.

The piece was about our adventures at Fort Mifflin (Which I'm sure that
regular readers are getting sick of hearing about) and will air, here in
Philly, on Friday morning (I'll let you know as soon as I have all the
details) on FOX 29. Those of you who haven't seen me in the last decade or
so will no doubt be shocked by my resemblance to Sebastian Cabot ("Mr.
French" from TV's Family Affair).



I'm presently trying to plan my Halloween celebration. So far, all I have
is:

Friday Night - See Live Not On Evil at the Pontiac

Saturday Afternoon - Attend the Rosenbach Museum's Dracula Parade

And that's it. That's all I've got. If anybody knows of anything else going
on here in Philly (I've stopped attending Dracula's Ball and, since I don't
have a car, I won't be going out to Laurel Hill for their annual tours,
either *sniff; sob*), please let me know.

Sadly, that's also all I have for today's Thoughtless. Sorry, but I owe
several publicans articles and I'm up to my ass in Milkmen stuff, so back
to work.

Enjoy tonight's eclipse.

I, for one, never get tired of hearing about Ft. Mifflin.

I just wanted to take a moment to pimp those Universal Legacy Collection DVD's. I've been gorging myself on Frankenstein, Dracula and The Mummy movies for the last two weeks. They're around twenty bucks and you get all the movies from the Universal glory years on that particular monster, plus a ton of extras and commentaries. Thay may not be the scariest movies anymore but damn they're still fun!
