Scaaarrry Sneeeaaak Peeeeek


I'm not done here, cuz I don't yet have pumpkins... I'm thinking I'm gonna get em next weekend. But I did a little more outside before the mosquitos carried me away. Then I had to catch a bus home..and -well...that's for another post. But here's what we're scaring people with so far. I need one more hanging scary guy for our tree, too. And more lights would look better.

I have the flash off on purpose cuz when it's on, you can't tell there's any lights.

We play a CD outside, of people screaming, Halloween night, too. It's actually kinda gross..some of em really sound like they're gettin the axe.

Linda said...

Lol...I'm such a dork. I just checked my post and I'm all "Hey cool! I have a comment already!" Um, yeah. That would be me.

RecknHavic said...

Doh!

Uh huh..Not gonna post pics, eh? You were settin us up.

Looks REALLY good! Liken those hangin dudes. And, I can see your compute rm (the red wall gave it away.

A sug, to get the tombstones to stay put: drive a wooden stake in the ground behind em, run wire through the tombstones and secure to stakes.

Oh, I got more to say but I just fired up the ol grill.

Linda said...

Wooden stakes...I'll get right on that. ;) My solution..take em out till the wind stops blowin.

Thanks! Y'all inspired a little more effort. My oldest actually said I outdid myself. Ha.

Figuring the grill'll be ready by 10:30, dinner by 11:30..so I'll hope to hear from you by 12:30. 'yawn'

btw..I only have one hangin dude..dunno if the pictures made it look like I have more.

Just saw video of Reck's fav girl getting booed at a hockey game. She dropped the ceremonial first puck in........Philly! Who in the McCain camp thought it was a good idea to let her drop the puck in Philly??? The most brutal sports fans in America and a ridiculously liberal city and that's where they send her. Why couldn't she be at a Dallas Stars game? There were some people cheering, but I think the boos overrode the cheers. The person on Yahoo! Sports who wrote the article put a brief commentary and closed by mentioning that Eagles fans once snowballed Santa Claus. Not the most cordial fans in America.

Nestor said...

I put a brief commentary on the Sick Freak section of the Insider Forum. I only have a few hours left of being an Insider so if my favorite Glenn Insider could fill me in on the reaction, I'd be curious to know.

RecknHavic said...

No, we're done. Turkey burgers and chicken and apple sausages; very good.

I should clarify, the jack-o-lantern flag is the hangin dudes.
But, THE hangin guy is really neat..by golly.

We're waitin on carvin pumpkins till next week as well.

RecknHavic said...

I rad that same article and I thought the same thing..Philly? They're bruttal there.
Maybe McCaint thinks he's still gotta shot at Penn (tho he doesn't imo).

I'm thinkin this is gonna be similar to Clinton vs George H in outcome. McLame is too weak a candidate.

I signed up for the free GB deal but haven't hada chance to ck it out. Tho they probably won't let me comment (case I take that one over too).

RecknHavic said...

So, youngest has gotta friend spendin the night and guess what, she watches Man vs wild w/ her dad as well. We're fixin to watch one. Oh yeah, I gitem recorded.

Linda said...

N,
Dang, I've never posted on the Insider Forum. Are you under Nestor? I'll look for it for ya. Fer sure! :)

RecknHavic said...

Re: what you said about pic quality (flash, no flash) I hear ya. I took same pics several ways, but still wasn't happy. What I wish you could see is the lightenin effect over grave yard. i stuck a strobe light up in the tree above, pretty neat.

Linda said...

I saw your post, Nestor, and I'll keep you updated! You have one response so far, but you probably know that.

RecknHavic said...

L,
You should post there, just change the font :)

Linda said...

I was just talkin to D about a strobe tnite. Yeah, the camera will never get that. That's ok...a picture doesn't always tell a thousand words, that's why we have keyboards.

RecknHavic said...

We watched alittle MvW and then switched to Amaz Race (taped). Won't say anything case you missed it.

we're crashin, girls want freakin waffles in the a.m.

Laters.

I saw the first comment, but haven't seen any others. I think the guy that left that comment isn't from Texas. I've heard Texans say (though I've never actually looked this up) that Texas could secede if they wanted to, it was part of their agreement of entering the union. I really don't know if it's true though. But I think Britain, had issues with the colonies 'seceding', but that didn't stop it from happening. I think if the United States fundamentally ceases from being the United States, you will see Texas (and maybe other states) secede. If BO socializes banking, energy etc., Texas will hit a point where it will say; "Screw you guys, I'm goin' home"

RecknHavic said...

Texas (the only state that was a country prior to joinin the Union)kept the right to succession after the Civil War. I've heard that the legislature under the leadership(?) a Ann Richards changed that, but I'm not sure if that's true or not.

Linda said...

Nestor,
Here's the second comment fr. GB:


"I think Abraham Lincoln ended the question of secession once and for all. Anyone who tries it will get a full onslaught from the American military machine."

Linda said...

I, for one, hope it doesn't happen...it's bad enough they're makin us get passports to go to Canada now.

Linda said...

So Glenn Beck's Christmas show is gonna be in Cleveland...on a SATURDAY!

Ya know, it was just a hunch before...but the fact that he keeps bringing his shows to cities I can easily get to, proves that he wants me there.

Nestor said...

The closest he comes to here is Tulsa??? Though last time he added a Houston and Dallas show. Hey Glenn, you've been to Houston, Dallas and San Antonio in the past, why not add a show in Austin.

Austin. 3 hours from Dallas, 2 1/2 from Houston and 1-1 1/2 from San Antonio. I'm just sayin'.

Nestor said...

The difference between Lincoln and Obama is that Obama will probably dismantle the military, and much of the military will not be loyal to him. Petraeus '10! ;)

Linda said...

I know, Nestor. You'd think TX would a hot ticket for him. Aren't there a lot of paranoid, Palin lovin', conservatives down there? ;)

RecknHavic said...

"Aren't there a lot of paranoid, Palin lovin', conservatives down there? ;)"

You betcha!

Linda said...

Fav. quote of the day...this was a guest on The View today..

"When you're in my line of work..when you do what I do...you have more people who would rather kill you than congratulate you".

Guess what he does? Wait for it...





Rapper.

LMAO!! Maybe he should try Country, cuz I doubt Carrie Underwood is gettin shot at.

Linda said...

D and the boys were shooting bb guns in the backyard yesterday. I just looked out there and there's beer cans hanging from the tree.

We are some shining example of class, we are. Seriously..class just oozes out of our pores. I mean, he coulda hung em in the FRONT yard! But, no. Class.

RecknHavic said...

Yalled fit right in down here :)

So, took lil S and her friend bowlin and I threw a 197 second gm. Sometimes luck IS better than skill. Elbow hurtin alittle tho.

RecknHavic said...

Any more decos? Hmmm...hmmm...

Linda said...

Hey 197..that's a great game! Notice you didn't mention your first game.

No, no more decos. You want me to keep going, eh? Well, I'm goin to Michaels tomorrow, so we'll see...

Guess you guys had Columbus Day off. Not us. Michiganders just think he's some wop who "discovered" an already inhabited land. ;)

Linda said...

Looks like a good moon tnite.

RecknHavic said...

What reck didnt tell ya on that 197 game....... the bumpers were up.

RecknHavic said...

Durn wife!

Yes, they were up but I never touched em. Hit em twice the first gm tryn to spin the ball(which I can't do). 1st gm was a 149.

Cloudy here :(

Linda said...

"Yes, they were up but I never touched em." Whatever. Major asterisk on the score. ;)

Youngest staying home tomorrow..cold. He's pretty miserable..started crying tonight for no reason. Said he was just sad. That's a good indication that he's feelin yucky enough to stay home. So sweet.

Linda said...

I'm beat..hittin it early. gn you crazy kids.

RecknHavic said...

Dang colds. Hope he gets better soon.

Get some rest.
