Hi, StelBel. The version you posted isn’t available in Canada, so I put one that is in the spoiler box.
It stills stands up after all these years.

I know it is (was?) a big franchise, but I never had the slightest desire to watch any of the “Halloween” movies.

If you liked Halloween 1 and 2, three was a big let down. Nothing to do with the previous movies, and a stinker to boot.

Never the less, Stel’s poster is a great parody.

Oh gosh… I keep forgetting that it’s the season when Stel’s posters scare me, and they’re mostly for movies I can’t watch.

I can’t believe humans even bothered with making a copydog version, when the basset movies are so much better…

though I confess, I’m not going to watch either one to compare them.

You guys just let me know, OK?

I hope no one will mind that I’ve never seen this one…

I mean… it’s a beautiful poster, Stel…..much nicer than the human one. (Why did they add that hideously mis-matched title on top?)

But one look at those glowing eyes, and I know how it would go at the theater…

Even in the Scaredy Cat Row, you can hear it…

Right after the opening credits, the eerie music starts….

and I feel a sudden desire to go to the candy counter.

Hey, while I’m in the lobby, I might as well use the rest room…

too bad it’s so crowded… but I’ll wait for my favorite stall.

And then… wow… just look at all those movies coming to the BassetPlexII next month…

I mean, look at the detail in those posters!

Hmm…. maybe I need some popcorn before I go back.

OH… people are coming out…. is it over?

What a shame.

Well, you tried! Not your fault there were so many distractions. I’ve never seen them and have never had the desire to. I sleep better, I’m sure.

Soggy Tuesday morning in Chicagoland. I was exhausted last night. They made up for not scheduling anything over the weekend

Good Tuesday morning Cleo phans!

I need a 💤 nap.

Be back later. (((((HUGZ!)))))

Good morning, Plods!

(Though I admit, I still haven’t been to bed. We don’t actually do morning, currently, chez Susan… I mean me, myself and I.)

So glad you check in here, and that you’re sounding cheerful.

I know it’s a difficult time, but in some ways a dream come true, one that you didn’t think could happen, a few years ago.

I may be sleeping when you get back… so I’m leaving happy thoughts and good wishes for then. 🍀🍀🍀

I’d say take care, but they do that for you and to you in the hospital, and you probably get sick of it. But enjoy what you can of it… you’ll be without it soon enough and maybe wishing for some of it. 🙂

See you later… Welcome home, for whatever minutes you can spend with us today… and more tomorrow, and onwards!

Sometimes it takes waking up before 4:43 A.M. to realize how tired you are.
Have a good nap.

It was looking kinda good, though too big for me, in spite of your intent… till I noticed that weird dark thing on the left side.

If that’s a mushroom, OK… but if it’s not… um… what is it?

Without going into research detail, it might be a gherkin pickle used in a burger made in the U.K. by a street vendor.
Reddit is not the most reliable source.

It’s weirdly shiny, including that unidentifiable thing I asked about…..and the top bun looks kind of fake.

So does the way the sauce and cheese cling.

I’ve started to think it might be a sculpture, not a real hamburger.

Not ceramic, but acrylic or fiberglass, or some such.

The “Comics Code Authority” was formed by comics publishers to keep the U.S. government people off the comics publishers’ backs.
Very racy illustrations for 1970.
The link leads to the full story published in “Girls’ Romances” in October of that year.     “HOROSCOPE, DON’T FOOL WITH MY HEART”      For this one all you have to do is scroll down through the pages. No extra clicking whatever.
Jacque Nodell (the woman who posted this in 2013) really did her research, so the almost, but not quite, plagiarized, version published by a rival publisher in October 1971 also appears below her main entry.

Didn’t feel a thing!

Thanks for letting me know about it.

I just looked at a little map…

Apparently it wasn’t felt very much north of the Golden Gate Bridge… and that’s about 35 miles south.

We feel them from 80 miles away, over land, like Sacramento… but I guess not so much from south of the Bay.
