I'm in Tampa right now on business and I'm trying to get my shit in the Halloween mood by watching a marathon of horror movies and what do I see on the television set? A Christmas commercial!!! With snow and trees and the whole shebang. This sort of makes me happy cause my favorite time of year is at hand, but its Halloween and nothing ruins blood and gore like snow and Christmas cheer.....or does it??!??!! hmmmmmmmm sounds like a viewing of "Christmas Evil" is in order

Chestnuts roasted by Funky Boo Berry @ 10/13/2005 09:47 PM EST

Hey Matt you still do more writing and more effort than anyone that views this site could do. Thanks a million for all the good memories and great articles. Even though you probably hear that a lot. Thanks again for the Halloween stuff.

Chestnuts roasted by Phil @ 10/13/2005 09:54 PM EST

Yeah Matt, although you've toned down the article-making, a man has to work. So great job with the site, and ditto with Phil, thanks for the memories

GAH! The smiley = Jasonface.

Chestnuts roasted by Tom No Like @ 10/13/2005 10:21 PM EST

Matt, I'm telling you, you should combine these articles into a book. A big Holiday book with the best of Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. With an included DVD that has the commercials on them (Though I imagine getting permission for everything would be a nightmare...)

That way, when you are bogged down and don't have time to write, we can browse through the book...

I'd pay 35 bucks for it...

To start off a conversation, I'm going to Six Flags Great Adventure on saturday with my college! It's the 2nd time i've ever been there (1st time was May 26 of this year) and I've also never been to a Fright Fest of any park, so I don't know what to expect.

The bus leaves my college at 12 (it's in Patchogue, LI) and I have no idea when I'm getting there, nor when I'm getting back home (I heard we're leaving the park at 10, and it closes at 11).

What are your opinions on if I try to do the following that day:

-get a Q-Bot (along with a few other friends, I know the limit is 6)
-ride at least Nitro, Medusa, Superman Ultimate Flight, and hopefully, Kingda Ka
-What the Fright Fest things are like

Thanks in advance.

(ps: I don't know how to do those Jason or Chucky smilies)

Chestnuts roasted by Invader Norbert @ 10/13/2005 10:34 PM EST

I saw a sasquatch today. On the side of the interstate.

Nobody believes me, but it's true. He was standing there and when I drove by he waved at me and then ran into the woods.

You have to believe.

Chestnuts roasted by The Wukong Effect @ 10/13/2005 10:52 PM EST

That's nothin'! I saw an abominable snowman in the market! Down by the peas and carrots!

Chestnuts roasted by Tougi @ 10/13/2005 11:12 PM EST

I also think a X-entertainment book would RULE!

Did anyone see Betty White on Joey tonight? Even in something crappy, you can always count on a Golden Girl for laughs.

Chestnuts roasted by JLAJRC @ 10/14/2005 12:20 AM EST

This seems to be a lovefest for matt going on here, and I have to join in, cause even if the entries are late, its totally cool cause all the stuff already up on the site is so awesome. Thanks for doing the countdown it really keeps me in the halloween spirit!!!

viva la X-E!!!!

When I was five I wanted my mom to let me just go to school in my batman underoos. She wouldn't let that fly so she made me a Robin costume. I couldn't be Batman because my stupid older brother decided he wanted to be Batman.

Chestnuts roasted by brent @ 10/14/2005 01:18 AM EST

It's all good
Anyone got exciting weekend plans? I've got another paper due but if I finish in a timely manner I might hit Knott's Scary Farm for my first time. I've always been too scared to go before and even now feel a little leery.
TBS is airing one of the Scream sequels, the one with Parker Posey? Never seen it before...it's not very good

Chestnuts roasted by squee4242 @ 10/14/2005 02:19 AM EST

I am planning on going out to Jason's Woods to see their 20th anniversary this weekend. It'll rock.

www.jasonswoods.com

Anyone in the area so should go there. Matt have you?

Chestnuts roasted by AJ @ 10/14/2005 02:23 AM EST

I used to work at Great Adventure (calling it six flags is sacrilege)for Fright Fest. I worked Brutal Planet the 2 years it was there and one year on the Hayride which fuckin blew but for $10 an hour to put on makeup and scare people it was pretty badass.
I don't know how great your adventure will be (see what i did there?) if the weather maintains cause most of the rides will be shut down, if they even open the park at all.
Good Luck though.

As for haunted attractions, I now work for Halloween Adventure and they're pimping Blood Manor in NYC and Terror Behind the Walls at Eastern State Penitentiary in Philly and they both look pretty badass, especially ESP because it takes place in an haunted abandoned Prison. Sweetness

Chestnuts roasted by WonKa @ 10/14/2005 02:59 AM EST

Eastern State kicks ass, my good friend. I go there at least 4 times each Halloween season.

You so totally have to wear hard hats as the place is falling down and such.

Chestnuts roasted by AJ @ 10/14/2005 03:17 AM EST

My boyfriend and I should be going to Eastern State soon.

My boyfriend usually goes to Philadelphia State Hospital a.k.a. Byberry, since we live right across the street from it. He's been going there since he's 14, now he's 36.

I've only been in Byberry once, it was pretty cool.

Matt, you probably had this on the calendar for a while. Masters of the Universe, Season 1 on DVD 10/18/05.

I haven't bought Toyfare magazine in a few years. I've been hunting for that Howdy Doody edition of TV Guide. If I can't find Howdy, I'll buy Toyfare Matt-o-Matic.

The Wukong Effect: I saw a sasquatch today. On the side of the interstate.

Sasquatch: Tell Tenacious D they were kick-ass.
Guy: And who should I tell them said that.
Sasquatch: Tell them it was Sasqua- Tell them it was a friend.
Guy: OK
Later...
Sasquatch: You know what... you better tell them it was Sasquatch. They won't know what friend you're talking about.
Guy: Ok, Sure.
Sasquatch: See ya.

I love this site, and in no way are you letting me down by posting at your leasure. Thanks to this site, I've embraced memories I never even had. I've shared the joy of the coolness of things that I would have normally just walked on past without giving a second thought. Keep up the good work, and don't rush it or write it just to keep up on "schedule".

Chestnuts roasted by Jono @ 10/14/2005 11:06 AM EST

the sporatic postings actually let me get something accomplished at work, so I guess that's a good thing.

Chestnuts roasted by bitchpants @ 10/14/2005 11:27 AM EST

I am going to Fearfest in Paramount Canada's Wonderland tomorrow. I wonder if it will be any good.

Chestnuts roasted by Phil @ 10/14/2005 11:41 AM EST

Did anyone else notice we've suddenly gone italic? Anyway, Ill join the big group hug for Matt--we all totally appreciate how much time and effort you put into this site! And bitchpants is right, I, too, get more done at my job when X-E is not new everyday.

Why Halloween is better than sex.

10. You're guaranteed to get a little something in the sack.
9. The uglier you are, the easier it is to get some.

8. It doesn't matter if the kids hear you moaning and groaning.

7. Less guilt the morning after.

6. It doesn't matter if they fantasize you're somebody else, because you are.

5. Forty years from now, you'll still enjoy candy.

4. If you don't get what you want, you can always go next door.

3. If you get tired, you can wait 10 minutes and go again.

2. You don't have to compliment the person who gives you some.

1. You can do the whole neighborhood!

Chestnuts roasted by Halloweenie @ 10/14/2005 12:50 PM EST

I've now paged through the past weeks worth of Halloween entries and comments sections. I hate real life. I heart x-e and all things slacker.

I've also dog-eared and worn down my two hard copy Halloween bibles in the past week and a half. Martha's Living (Halloween edition) and BH&G's Halloween (tricks & treats).

And in case anyone's interested, Halloween & Vine just completed their yearly craft show last weekend. Their website has links to most of their vendors -- www.halloweenandvine.com. Very cool stuff -- especially if you like really creepy vegetable monsters. ( And who doesn't? Quiet, you in the back! )

That's it. I got nuffink else. Keep up the good work, Matt!

Chestnuts roasted by Lisa Marie @ 10/14/2005 01:10 PM EST

I don't know how great your adventure will be (see what i did there?) if the weather maintains cause most of the rides will be shut down, if they even open the park at all.

I neglected to mention that my May 26 outing was a total NIGHTMARE. Out of the 7 hours I was at the park I only got in 4 coasters: The Chiller (Robin), Batman The Ride (not worth the wait), Nitro (worth the wait, and it only took me 35 minutes to get in line anbd get to the front row), and Superman Ultimate Flight (capacity was crap, but worth the wait).

But the weather forecast looks pretty damn good for tomorrow, and I don't really care about the Fright Fest crap, I'm only going for the rides.

And the fact that there have been 33 or so post in about 14 hours is blasphemy! Where is everyone???

Chestnuts roasted by Invader Norbert @ 10/14/2005 02:13 PM EST

Hey Invader Norbert--I live about 50 minutes south of Great Adventure (in Little Egg Harbor, Southern Ocean County--Jackson is in Northern Ocean), and I heard its only supposed to rain in the morning. You may be in for luck--they may just have to dry off the rides and run them once or twice before letting people on.

If you find Scooby-Doo, give him a hug. LOL--just kidding.

Chestnuts roasted by Allison @ 10/14/2005 02:22 PM EST

what's up with this italics shit? :-D >:-)

Chestnuts roasted by Allison @ 10/14/2005 02:23 PM EST

I don't know.

Chestnuts roasted by Jedoc @ 10/14/2005 02:32 PM EST

I HAVE COCOA CATS! I found them at the Dollar Tree round the corner from where I work. If anyone wants any & can't find em, let me know. I might be gracious enough to mail them to ya. I also might simply point and laugh. Just kidding.

Chestnuts roasted by violetdied @ 10/14/2005 02:39 PM EST

okay the madness must stop..

Chestnuts roasted by diamondzdigidul @ 10/14/2005 02:40 PM EST

The sasquatch used his magic to transform the text into italics! He will convince the non-believers!

It is a little known fact that sasquatches are expert sorcerors.

Chestnuts roasted by The Wukong Effect @ 10/14/2005 02:58 PM EST

Violet--I too have Cocoa Cats. Got a helpful e-mail from an X-E poster directing me to Dollar Tree, and anybody looking for the custom Halloween Peeps flavors needs look no further than their Dollar Tree.

And now the quest is over, and I have nothing to live for.

Chestnuts roasted by mtrox @ 10/14/2005 03:15 PM EST

Well of course sasquai are expert sorcerers. How else would they hide their sasquatch cities? It's obvious that they can do magic. I think some of them might be druids.

Anyway. Matt, don't stress if you can't finish articles, we will all still think you're the greatest. I would totally buy the X-E book, but I still think we need a TV show like king said.

Chestnuts roasted by Gabbylicious @ 10/14/2005 03:20 PM EST

mtrox--What about Halloween and X-E? Those are the only two things I live for. And chocolate. And Tim Burton movies. And cartoons.

Chestnuts roasted by violetdied @ 10/14/2005 03:20 PM EST

I was bitten by a Sasquatch, will I now in turn become a sasquatch?

Chestnuts roasted by bloodybrilliantme @ 10/14/2005 03:25 PM EST

I'm adding to the Matt appreciation day:

I've been coming to this site for almost 5 years. I harldy post because I'm not much of a blogger, but this site has brought back so many memories and incredible things I had once forgotten. This has to be one of THE best sites anywhere. From the articles, to the commercials, to the hysterical people on the Blog. Thanks again Matt, and don't worry about the update.

Italics rule...

I feel like i'm reading everyone's inner monologue

Chestnuts roasted by bitchpants @ 10/14/2005 03:42 PM EST

Book into movie into television series.

Since this thread is kinda topicless, can I brag? My coffee shop just got nominated for a national award. woo hoo! I'm not telling many people around here, cause I haven't won yet. But you people can't see me cry if I don't win. Being a coffee geek paid off!

Chestnuts roasted by kb @ 10/14/2005 03:46 PM EST

My inner monologue contains WAY more swearing and sarcasm.

Cheers to coffee geeks!

Chestnuts roasted by Galvatron @ 10/14/2005 03:57 PM EST

For the record, I use italics when I'm quoting somebody or something. I'm not gonna just go throwing around italics willy-nilly. The IGC (International Grammar Council) outlawed that after the Sanchez Incident in Montenegro in '93. Few survived to tell the tale. WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE ME, GOD?! WHY DID JOHNNY HAVE TO DIE INSTEAD OF ME?! SANCHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ!

Chestnuts roasted by Gozer @ 10/14/2005 03:59 PM EST

kb: You have a coffee shop? That's downright heroic.
And damn the luck, my local Dollar Tree is way across town. And I was just over there this morning. You know, BEFORE I knew that the trail of the elusive Cocoa Cat Peep led there. On a side note, "trail of elusive cocoa cat peep" sounds like something that's really hard to get out of carpets.
Why was I clear across town this morning, I hear you ask? Because that's where Hastings is. And that's where I bought the combo DVD pack of the first three Myst games. Yeah, that's right. I'm just that geeky.
It's really amazing how archaic the graphics are. It makes me sad that my friend and I paid fifteen bucks apiece for a shared copy of the original game. But the DVD special edition? Totally worth it. For me, the nostalgia trip started when the installation program informed me that the entire game was going to take up 2 MB of hard drive space.
Good times.

My inner monologue is performed entirely in rhymes, just like Roadblock from G.I. Joe.

Think of the media coverage I would get.

Chestnuts roasted by The Wukong Effect @ 10/14/2005 05:22 PM EST

You guys are my inner dialog.

My story was going to be in three short parts spread over the next three weekends, but it ended up in four short parts, so maybe two tomorrow and two next Saturday. Be kind, it's all off the top of my head. It's all pretty short.

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 10/14/2005 05:35 PM EST

The italics make me think we are in a dream sequence...like none of this is really happening...wow, now all I need is Wayne and Garth going, "Do do da do! Do do da do!" and wiggling their fingers with a falling motion.

Chestnuts roasted by Jade @ 10/14/2005 06:39 PM EST

Yeah Jade I'm pretty sure the only way of fixing unclosed tags in here is for one of the powers-that-be to edit the original post. Just another reminder for everybody to brush up on simple html if they want to make fancy postin's.

Chestnuts roasted by squee4242 @ 10/14/2005 06:53 PM EST

HEY, someone I know still has my copies of Stateside and Life as a House! Oh speaking of Hayden and Nov. 1st, Blink's Greatest Hits come out that day too, on CD and DVD!!! Basically its just to get the theme from Meet the Barkers and the self-titled era's videos.

Chestnuts roasted by The Wukong Effect @ 10/15/2005 12:24 AM EST

This probably would have been more appropriate in the thread starting the countdown off, but I didn't discover this site until around a week or two ago. And I gotta say, it's great stuff. Halloween has been my favorite holiday for many a year and the last few have felt increasingly lacking in the Halloween spirit. To see something like this is very refreshing and greatly appreciated.

That said I realized something today that saddens me. Halloween this year will be on a Monday. A monday! Things like this should be illegal, or Halloween should be given the same recogition as the other holidays and we should get some days off. I'm sure it's fallen on Mondays before, but I can't really recall. Around this neighborhood that likely means all the trick or treating will probably start at around 6pm and be done by 8 or 9. I also have college classes to go to that'll keep me busy until 7:30. With most people either having to go to work or school the following day, even finding a good Halloween party could be difficult. This is all very disheartening, especially since reading the countdown has gotten me even more psyched up for Halloween than usual. I'm damn determined to find some worthy way to celebrate though, the spirit will not die.

Chestnuts roasted by GrrrArrgh @ 10/15/2005 01:43 AM EST

Yeah, I hate weeknight Halloween. It always kills the number of trick or treaters we get.

Of course, Fridays are no better here because of high school football dragging everyone away from Halloween activities, so really, the only night worth having Halloween on is Saturday, and that just doesn't happen often enough.

Chestnuts roasted by The Wukong Effect @ 10/15/2005 02:23 AM EST

Public schools here get Halloween and the day after Halloween off. Boo-yah! I wish they would have done that when I was a kid.

Chestnuts roasted by Monte @ 10/15/2005 03:11 AM EST

I have always loved this site since the fateful day i searched the My Pet Monster movie and stumbled upon an atricle that made me almost poop my pants laughing. From there i just started clicking all the links within the articles and got totally hooked. I like how you always appreciate the forgetten gems of the past along with those that were more mainstream. Keep up the good work Matt, if your career overtakes the site one day i will still appreciate all the free time you sacrificed to keep up in stitches.

Wow Monte that's impressive. I too was supposed to have school Halloween evening but all the mothers in the class complained vocally enough that the teacher caved and cancelled class. We get zilch in the way of treaters at home though so now I'm at a loss for plans.

*GrrrArrgh* (et al) --

Halloween on a Monday does suck. That's why I took the preceding Friday and the following Tuesday off from work. That's right -- got myself a 5 Day Holiday Weekend, suck-ahs! That's one day more than any Thanksgiving Crapaday or Christmas Snoozefest.

And *GrrrArgh* and *Squee* -- I heart Mutant Enemy. *Jedoc* -- Myst has a fond place in my heart, too.

Crikey. And I wonder (sometimes) why I'm such a loser.

5-day Hallow-day, tho'! Whoo-hoo!

I live in Lincoln, NE. And kids getting their fall break during Halloween is the only good thing I can think of to say about this place, so I wouldn't rush into moving here just yet.

Chestnuts roasted by Monte @ 10/15/2005 01:49 PM EST

Not to override anything, but it seems someone out there has it in for me. If anyone has a conflict with me, make a solid, rational argument and I will gladly traipse off to some other part of the electrospace for a long while. The nearly two years I've been coming here has been a hoot, but hey, I can live without. Matt, anything I can ramp down or eliminate? If you ask me to leave, I'll shake hands and do a Kaiser Sozse. Just sayin'. Back to your regularly schedualed thread.....

The last concert I went to was a Turbonegro show Tuesday. I got vomited on by some drunken Scandanavian girl in a viking hat.

I fucked up. The word was peradventure not preadventure. Here's the definition from Merriam- Webster
Main Entry: 1per·ad·ven·ture
Pronunciation: 'p&r-&d-"ven-ch&r, 'per-; "p&r-&d-', "per-
Function: adverb
Etymology: Middle English per aventure, from Old French, by chance
archaic : PERHAPS, POSSIBLY

Sorry to hear about your ticket Kyle. you want to hear worse?

My 3 month old car nearly got it's bumper torn off. At geuss where? After nearly 1000 days of rain here, I decided to go to the car wash. Yup, an attendendant there reversed the front driver side of a full sized limo into my back quarter panel and tore away part of my bumper.

So her I am drunk, on X-E realizing it's only a car and with all this shit going on on the planet, it could be worse.

The reason bigfoot pictures are blurry is because bigfoot is a transdimensional being. When we "see" him, we're only seeing a "realm shadow" that has filtered through to our reality.

I know this because I was raised in a bigfoot village.

'sup dawgs? I'm back from vacation!

squee!! Yes, that Lifetime movie I mentioned did involve fire. It also opened with Manson's version of 'Sweet Dreams' although the Eurythmics version popped up later in the movie. And the fat, red-haired nurse, she was also in one of my most-favorite movies of all time: Freeway, with Keifer and Reese's. In Freeway, the red-haired lady plays Reese's parole/probation officer who comes to take her back to foster care, but ends up getting her feet cuffed to the bed. So...

KMFDM rocked my balls so hard! They played a lot of stuff off the new album, Hau Rock, but the best was a killer 'Megalomaniac', and I was impressed when the band brought out a birthday cake for their guitarist!! It was all very emotional...sniff.
I just wish I could have seen them on the Symbols tour, back in the day!

Best things I bought at American Science? A Pac-Man neon wall clock for $15, some of those trippy ass glasses, and Bozo the Clown tatoos!!

Best things from Uncle Fun's? A sealed ET puzzle from 1982, a Rolling Stones puzzle from 1983, some luggage tags that look like strips of bacon, and some Three Stooges magnets.

I saw Cabbage Patch Doll cake decorations, you know those sugary type ones, from God knows when, I saw a "Hollywood" Hogan NWO smock costume, with a REALLY bad mask, I saw (and I'm already kicking my own ass for not buying one of these) not one, but TWO, Kool-Aid Man bobbleheads!! And they were giant, not like the normal size bobbleheads!! Fuck, why didn't I buy more useless cool shit!?!?!

Okay, and I forgot to look for Toyfare too, dammit!

Chestnuts roasted by diamondzdigidul @ 10/16/2005 03:50 PM EST

for variety here is a random post bastardized from the undergroundhiphop.com message boards, this was originally posted by dareallambchop:

Topic: Young Jezzy Pt.2 "the Reason"

posted Saturday, October 15, 2005: Because Jeezy shit is so real.

Jezzy is down with BMF. They basically runshit across the country. This ain't no fake gangsta shit either, they go in Puffy and Jay-Z parties and buy up the bar. They got cats in NY, GA, Miami, Chicago, LA, everywhere basically runnin the cities.

They did a show here last month and threw out garbage bags of money like rain from the stage that entire show. From start to finish, for over an hour. Just pulling out big ass stacks in rubberbands and throwing it in the crowd.

So Jezzy was paid before he hit. I've seen em pull up to Circle House (Miami) just to come hang out. They pull up 50 deep pushin Phantoms and Maybachs on dubs and shit. Ferraris and shit.

BMF is the truth, and all the dope boys know it. And the shit he talks about is SO REAL. But it's not broken down for everyone to understand. It's in Dope boy lingo, so half the shit he's sayin, most people don't get.

3rdstrike - That's why you think he's just repeatin himself with non meaning, but if you really listen, he does do it with double meanings alot of the time. I agree sometimes no, but most of the time he does.

I was the same way when I heard about him. I was like Who? Then I had to take a road trip with my artist and they kept playing him, and I started listening to the lyrics, and I was like damn, this ain't no fake gangsta shit.

It's Gangsta music, and dude was gonna blow with Jay or not, because he had BMF money behind him before Def Jam.

And as far as mainstream (white) America. They buy whatever the n*ggas like, or think is hot. When 50 dropped he had the streets, white people ate it up.

50 dissed Jah, Jah and Ashanti can't give they records away now.

Jezzy dropped, and the dope boyz went crazy, now he's the new hot shit. That's just the way it is.

Jezzy even says that he's not the greatest rapper, but his adlibs are the shit.

"Yeeeaaaaahhhh"...

Peradventure I will get the clone attack of coruscant battle pack today at target. It comes with four clones with the markings of the 41st elite, the unit that went with Yoda to Kashyyk before they put on the scout armor. It also comes with a blue repaint of Commander Bacara. The title has absolutely nothing to do with the figures other than the clone part. It was the 501st division that attacked the Jedi temple not the 41st elite. The 41st elite were a Legion out of the 9th Assault corps, under the command of Commander Gree.

Ever wonder if it's not the pictures that are blurry but that bigfoot himself is blurry? What could be scarier than a huge out of focus monster roaming the forests?

That was from Mitch Hedberg (RIP)

Also, If you didn't read before, I went to 6 Flags Great Adventure yesterday with my college. I can only describe it as this: Nightmare.

I was only there for about 6 hours (3-9:30pm), and I only got to ride 4 coasters: Nitro, Superman: Ultimate flight, Blackbeard's Lost Treasure Train, and Runaway Train. I wanted to ride Medusa, but it shut down sometime during the day, and I saw that it was open when I was leaving. Fortunately, i got a Qbot, which is something you pay $30 for to reserve a ride time, and I used this for Nitro & Superman, and I did it for Kingda Ka too, but I wasn't able to make it before I left for home. Worth every penny, though.

There is a bag of candy corn pumpkins somewhere in this room, and I can't eat them because they're for our Halloween party. I had to tell my boyfriend to hide them from me because otherwise they'd be gone by now (we bought them last night).

I would have guessed that those lyrics were from Of "Of All the Gin Joints in All the World" by Fall Out Boy. But that just shows how we're on different edges of the musical spectrum.

I also forgot to mention that Great Adventure was pumping out some the songs from the XE Jukebox. Matt has to at least has some honor in that (I would say royalties, but he didn't sing any of those songs)

And I just thought up and awesome idea for a halloween story: It's about a guy who is being terrorized by a demoic radio with Jon Lovtiz's voice.

You know LuLu, I dont think I have ever watched the Dr. Suess cartoons(just The Grinch), but I was a huge fan of the books of course, I would really like to see the cartoons, that would be interesting, all old school and in a way, kinda creepy. I dont know what it is but some really old cartoons and B&W movies give me the willies.

My Hubby and I just ordered some DVD on videoflicks.ca to top up are movies to DVD collection, we got all 3 TMNT movies and both Ghostbusters! We also got the 3rd season of Columbo Im quite excited for them to come!!

It's quite an enjoyable experience, and this year is their 20th anniversary, so all the good stuff'll be out and about.

I usually go every other year as I live near Philly, so it's not as easy of a hike for me. I totally met Doug Bradley there though.

Chestnuts roasted by AJ @ 10/16/2005 11:17 PM EST

I also forgot to add that I enjoy your site quite a bit.

Chestnuts roasted by AJ @ 10/16/2005 11:19 PM EST

The Dr. Suess collection is great! FYI, it includes the following:
The Cat in the Hat
The Lorax
Pontofell Pock and His Magic Piano
Green Eggs and Ham
Sneetches
Zax
Grinch Night (I think Matt reviewed this on the site)
The Grinch Grinches the Cat in the Hat
The Hoober-Bloob Highway

It's a great collection, and only $20 at my local Walmart. IHAQ, I kinda know what you mean about some cartoons being kind of creepy. This might be a little different, but I have a lot of distinct memories of certain parts of cartoons that made me sad or scared. Like in An American Tail, the cats really scared me, and The Land before Time makes me feel scared too. And there is a scene in (I think) the Disney cartoon version of A Christmas Carol, where Ebenezer Scrooge sees his own grave and then falls in and that always freaked me out. And a scene with dancing pink elephants in (maybe) Dumbo (I think?) that haunted my nightmares. I'm not sure why I thought they were so scary. Basically any of those crazy animation sequences with things dancing around and turning into other things freaked me out.

Is anyone else familiar with the Dr. Suess cartoons? Maybe Matt could review them sometime.

Oh yeah I totally understand, I got freaked out by that scene in A Christmas Carol too. Tho its not a cartoon, I was always so feaked out by the old lady in Mary Poppins (feed the birds toppins the bag), it was my favorite movie as a child but I left the room when that part came on, my Mom told me that I would say it reminded me of death, I was an odd child!

Here are some more "do it yourself"ers for halloween projects. None are as cool as the head in the jar, (that thing is too real) but, they still beat the shit out of the stuff you pick up at your local markets. Plus the feeling you've accomplished something by making it yourself (now you know how martha stewart feels). Have fun, and don't eat the paste, but do huff the spray paint (martha would).

Is anyone else familiar with the Dr. Suess cartoons? Maybe Matt could review them sometime.

Besides the cartoons mentioned above, Warner Bros also made a Looney Tunes cartoon of Horton Hatches The Egg. Freaky, funny stuff., though my favorite of the ones I've seen (and I've seen most of them) was The Lorax for some reason.

2) a Qbot is something that reserves a time to get in a special line for a ride. Its like the Fastpass at Disney, but it costs $30

Fat Daddy - Al Pacino

Nice...but who on earth is Fat Daddy? I know everyone else.

bene that has to be the funniest thing i've read in a while!!! The cast is just perfect. Now if we could scrounge up about 100 million dollars or so it could work. Start saving your pennies...just look out when George Lucas somehow acquires the rights and has admiral ackbar shoot first instead of Fat Daddy and somehow Matt is digitally erased from the entire movie itself and replaced by footage of Warwick Davis taking a shit.

Chestnuts roasted by phunqsauce @ 10/17/2005 02:12 PM EST

On that Super hero thing, my ex-coworker at the video store said one time he would be the Incredible Jello (he really isn't chubby or anything--he has "Baby fat."

My mom and I were in Kohl's today, and we started talking about the Golden Girls--she said that she thought the house was Dorothy's. I said it was Blanche's. There was someone walking behind us the entire time.

Brilliant, Bene--the world needs an X-E movie!!!!!

Weird dream--I've been having this recurring dream that I'm pregnant (2 years and running). I'm not even remotely pregnant. In last night's unbelievable installment, I dropped the calf. Woo-hoo.

The Grinch Grinches the Cat in the Hat is classic!!! I absolutely love it!! I don't know too many people who remember it though. Maybe I'll pick up that DVD. Did you know that the V/O on the Smucker's commercials is Mason Adams, the voice of the Cat in the Hat? I love it! My mom said that and I've been hanging on to it!!

Ted Kennedy burped on camera during the State of the Union Address a few years ago! I SAW IT!!!

Man oh man how could I have forgotten the Kool-Aid man. I feel absolute humiliation.

And although I can understand the objection to Sara Gilbert playing Matt's girlfriend, it's made up for by the scene of him cheating on her with both Teela and She-Ra (played by Carmen Elektra and Jessica Alba).

Great Tom Cruise ref from "Weekend Update"--"Born on the 4th of July...(picture of Tom Cruise and ex-wife Mimi Rodgers)...divorced on the 17th of January." Thank you Dennis Miller! Perhaps a premonition of what's to come in the continuing saga that is TomKat???? I'm sure if Miller was the Update anchor, it would be all over his news--I'm sure he's creeped out.
