So now that that is all over, can all of you now submit to the the Home Haunters Video DVD set? Please? Please?
We only have about 10 haunts at the moment. :( - Thanks to all 10 of you!
There has normally been around 100, if we do not get more soon, we will have to cancel the DVDs due to the cost of producing and duplication.
There are awards for these also....they are just trophies and no fancy prizes that the Home Haunters Association has.....sorry, my budget is much smaller :D It is all for the fun of it anyway....right? :)
Looking forward to seeing what you create in 2011.

Really short history lesson
Why does the frog queen keep mentioning the Reformation and "thanking Henry" :D
Reformation? - Henry said f*ck you to the Catholic Church started a new church and ordered all the Catholic churches to be dismantled
....most of them were "unroofed" this meant taking the lead roof off the church to use elsewhere. Without the roof, the buildings fell to ruin and many were dismantled to build fancy homes to the people that Henry granted the church land. (that is the really short poor American education version - if someone wiser knows more....please help me out.)
....not that I am all that big a fan of the Catholic church (in fact you could go so far as to say it is quite the opposite :D) but it is very sad to see all these ruined cathedral/church because of the reformation
....and not that I am a big fan of Henry VIII (didn't know him personally) but his decision to break away from the Catholic church (which I personally understand, been there myself much to the dismay of my family) was the downfall of so many amazing buildings
.....the more I travel over there, the more sad I feel
....then I think, man, does that mean I am rooting for the Catholic church? Wait, that can't be!! Oh no!!
......quite a quandary I tell you. I try not to think about it too much makes my head hurt :D

But this blog is my folly
so, here is another whim of mine. While in the UK we got the latest Jimmy Carr DVD - now, really, I am not exaggerating.....this guy can offend - even those that don't easily offend. He has gotten in a bit of trouble more than once for his jokes. So, you have been warned:

So that I don't turn my other blog
into a commercial for Tim Minchin, I am going to post this here. Actually going to do a whole run on some my favorite comedians.
I am going to miss the Johnathan Ross show - maybe like Graham Norton.....he will come back to his talk show some day - a frog queen can wish.

Never look into the lasers!!!
So I am having a great time with my stack of UK comedy DVDs - Bill Baily has always been a favorite of mine....here is one of his latest. If anyone remembers the "washing up" scene at the end of Part Troll.....you will see he is playing with the same angle here. :)

Not only do some
of my workmates dislike Halloween....it is all holidays. Not that I celebrate Christmas in any big way....but I guess it goes to show that you "don't know what you got till it's gone". Not being able to put up anythng for Xmas kinds sucks too.
I found this quote recently, it has been running thought my head a lot.....
If I had a large sum of money I should certainly found a hospital for those whose grip upon the world is so tenuous that they can be severely offended by words and phrases and yet remain all unoffended by the injustice, violence, and oppression that howls daily about our ears. -Donald Trefusis
