They also used the Mexican "Day of the Dead" and moved it to November 2 and renamed it "All Souls Day".

It is still celebrated in Mexico.

I'm here today!! Been working on the USS Truman the last two weeks, topped off by climbing the mast (208 feet above the waterline) yesterday. The stairclimber from HELL!!! A little sore today, I haven't done that (on an aircraft carrier) since I was stationed on the Eisenhower in 94.

Anyway, Creepy Halloween to all!!

Today, I almost remembered my ex's name. For years, I've been referring to her as, "The Demon From Hell."
Thankfully, good ol' Sam pulled me back from the dreaded fits of....

"OH!OOOOHHHH!!!!"
I sure miss the guy.

Why, Why, Why


Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting weak?

Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when they know there is not enough?

Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?

Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?

Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?

Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?

Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

Whose idea was it to put an "S" in the word "lisp"?

If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?

Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?

Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?

How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?

Why do basketball athletes have to wear droopy drawer uniforms while the half-time entertainment dance squad wear brief, skintight outfits?

When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for d oing so, why do we say, "It's all right?" Well, it isn't all right, so why don't we say, "That hurt, you stupid idiot?"

Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?

And, finally,

The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.

Well, lad: Ye should be aware that on Halloween, the auld Celts wouldna let anyone in after dark: believin'-as it were-only evil spirits would be out there roamin' on such a night.

So it was imperative - don't ye see - ta be home well before dark - lest ye be mistaken fer an emissary o' the Crow Goddess, or the Pookah.

Blame it on the Celts [and Irish].

But they gave us Guiness so all is forgiven.

Nothing like a good monster movie (Godzilla variety) spoof
just before Halloween. Pinky and the Brain grow to giant size--and Raymond Burr keeps showing up for some reason.
