That's Good Eatin'

Recent conversation with Brenda:
Brenda: (Looking through mailer) Would you like to go to Floyd's Barbecue?
me: Why would I want that?
Brenda: We could get $5.00 off any cut.
me: Any cut of what? (Looking at flyer for Floyd's Barbershop not Barbecue)
me: (Seeing picture of barber holding razor poised over a man's cheek) Looks like you can pick your own meat.
Brenda: Oh my God I need new glasses.

For many people, costumes are very time consuming efforts. I tend to be more minimalist. For example, I could actually envision myself attending a Halloween costume party with Amy and she would be dressed like the Darth pussycat she is, and I would have on not much more than Fonzie socks.

Once again, I have to preface this by saying South Dakota snow stories are much more impressive, I'm sure. But here in DC it doesn't get much heavier than this. A couple of feet in a two day period left a lot of snow to be shovelled out of the way. Go »No Clowns On Halloween Allowed At My Door
Or "How Ronald McDonald Kicked My Ass" About ten years ago, shortly before Brenda and I got married, we attended a Halloween party at a friend's house. The primary reason to get together was obviously to dress up like we did when we were little but secondarily to get drunk as a sailor on shore leave. The standard "funny name" cocktails were offered like "sex on the beach" and "southern screw" and "raw sewage". Go »

I'm sure a modern-day update of Sweeney Todd could change the meat pies to BBQ.
