Fall in Indiana
FOUND by D. in Northwest Indiana
I found a strip of photo film negatives several months back and had been carrying them around in my purse until today, when I decided to scan them and see what they were. Anything to avoid work. It was four pictures taken on Halloween (my guess).
Just me in my smoke-free house
Smoking will do that to ya.

Robert wanted to scare his girlfriend, Heather, when she got home from work. He knew she would fire up the grill for their Halloween BBQ party, so he sat in a lawn chair, wearing his mask, waiting to jump up and roar at her the minute she stepped in the backyard. Unfortunately, Heather's gal-pals had invited her for an after-work drink, and that "quick beer" had led to another, and another...until Robert fell asleep, cigarette in hand. Heather found him there, head back, snoring, and instead of running and screaming she ran laughing to get the camera.

Robert woke up when the burning ciggie reached his fingers.

(BTW: How un-smart is it to try to smoke in a rubber mask?)

e thought it was no big deal, that the thing had only nipped at him, not actually bitten through the skin. But the next week, when the full moon rose, he had the strang

Booming movie announcer voice: "In a world where aliens sit in lawn chairs in Indiana...."

Ebert's movie review: "Updating the classic 'War of the Worlds' from the Surgeon General's point of view, and making tobacco the silent killer instead of germs form the common cold, this movie...."

Supermarket tabloid headline: "Retirement Home for Members of 'Blue Man Group' Discovered in Indiana Suburb!!"

I think it would be quicker to buy a gun and a silver bullet. Even with the 3-day waiting period.

Little old lady got mutilated late last night, werewolves of London again."

(although this werewolf looks more like it would be from London, KY rather than the UK!)

No, it's me...I just thought y'all wouldn't mind if I played too. Guess I'll go back to my compost. Sorry.

With a promise of a 6 pack of beer at the end of the night Leonard begrudgingly agreed to play along with the kids for Halloween.

Muse on the Loose (Not Baby Basil!)
Rick never really got into the spirit of Halloween. When his wife Brenda said, "Go trick-or-treating with the kids!" he would respond by brandishing his cigarette and saying, "You go with the kids and I'll give out candy. It's much harder." Brenda never actually knew if it WAS harder because she was always trick-or-treating with the kids. One Halloween, they had to go back home early for a potty break, and she found Rick snoring in the front yard, were-wolf mask on, cigarette in hand. She wanted solid evidence that it was indeed not hard at all, so she took a picture for proof.

What on earth makes you think this was Halloween? I see no candy...(Is his fly open?)

Great Find Ms. D!

I guess the general consensus is it's a shaggy Werewolf, but my very first impresseion remains, and it still looks kinda psychotic-monkeyish to me. Like this one, too:

For some reason I just can't see it as a Werewolf.

Nightingale, it's funny that you said, "What on earth makes you think this was halloween?.. Thanks Ms. D!"

I almost said, "what on earth makes you think it's a MS?" Thankfully, I re-read the Finder's Blurb before I embarrassed myself. (ovcoarse you know that many men carry purses these days, too! LOL.)

Frottage, cloistered in his cottage, handcuffed to the stove, waiting for the full moon to pass.
Werewolfing all night isn't nearly as fun and easy as it may sound to the uninitiated. It's exhausting work thinking of new and inventive ways to terrorize the superstitious townsfolk and mutilate livestock.

Also, for bonus points, organize this list of memorable werewolf movies from the 1980s: The Howling, Silver Bullet, Teen Wolf, Wolfen, and An American Werewolf in London.

Frottage again
I meant, "organize this list of memorable werewolf movies from the 1980s in order from best to worst." Also, I left out Curse of the Queerwolf and Monster Dog (starring Alice Cooper). You can not claim Monster Squad because that has all the monsters in it.

I need to edit my posts more carefully.
