Happy Sunday and Halloween week all...
We have a good scary lineup tonight...with the ceremonial Thing on the Fourble Board...
How’s it going?
The Thing on the Fourble Board! Since I first heard Ed play it, I think that episode is the only place I recall seeing the word “fourble.” He spray-paints her. :-D
How’s it going, Vision?

I am good. It's been a welcome day staying inside with rain and fog outside. You?
Yes, I looked it up back when Ed first played it, but it will remain burned in my mind by this invisible creature “mewling” on that rig, living off of eating poor schmucks the guy lures in. :-D
Glad you’re well. We’re fine. Enjoying the cooler weather, nice fall.
Are you watching the world series?
No, we’re listening to 20th Century Radio. They just played an episode of “Pat Novak For Hire” with Jack Webb. I’ve never heard so many back-to-back, cheesy one-liners! He said stuff like, “She was a pretty nurse, if you like mammals” and “He was grinning like he’d just killed a landlord.” I kid you not. :-)
Houston fighting for the world series? I'm surprised you're not watching.
I’m not into baseball. Keith likes it more, but even he’s not on it.
