"skellies" are very popular around here as we get near Halloween. This year for the first time, the skellies have their own page. As you can see- some people have a LOT of fun with skellie poses.

    I'm thinking this could also be ads for a new type of crash diet that's about to break into the marketing world

    They look a bit more muscular than some of those Olympic cyclists.

    Last year, my neighbor and I had a set of 10 skeletons playing football across our front yard.

    This IS fun!

    I am working on Halloween products right now.

    Getting an earlier start than last year where I waited until October.

    One of my themes is skeleton related.

    Several years ago I wrote all the descriptions (costumes) for a major Halloween costume site. It was exhausting trying to come up with good, interesting descriptions but fun, too, and it paid very well.


    Neighbors had two skeletons walking just off the rural road where we live - with a skeleton dog on a leash. The road is very light traffic but every car that went by at night hit their brakes.

          For some reason, I typed Cobard into Google and it is an oral spray, supposed, amongst other things, to alleviate the symptoms of Neuropathy. So, perhaps I should have some Cobard in my cupboard!

    Turns out I am so Skel I disappeah from view 50%a the time I pirouette.

    For sure, it is a CURSE (my Halloween Natch), but I would rathah flaunt muh boobies exotically on a 50% remainin' ticket than be 100% guaranteed to KILL SUMONE'S DOG simply by BENDIN' OVAH jus' bcs I gaht TWINNED SQUIDOES OF CONCUSSION swingin' in a deadly fashin from offa MUH VERY TORSO.

    That is why I love so the wasted chick vibe of evry Halloween skello you see checkin' the local stores for spray-on flesh bcs they heard 'bout BLACK MONDAY from beyond the grave.

    Guy skellies mostly jus' attack evrywan.

    An' natchrl animyool skellies are mostly levelin' up on a lifetime of provoked aggression survival stuffs.

    Hey, but I would wanna look ahead to Halloween always.

    She is a myth bitch of unrelentin' soul powah.

    An' when Armageddon hits, she will be the last to trooly die.

    That is the 'fun' part of Halloween.

    Which is why we all love it so.*

    * Less'n you in favor of burnin' books 'bout THE CRAYZILLY SATANIC an' stuffs -- in which case the ultimate inevitability of death (complete with a landscape ravaged by undead hordes) -- may possibly alarm you.

        My first doctor as a kid was called Dr Skelly. He was a painfully skinny guy who resembled a skeleton. A very appropriate name methinks.

    It just so happens there is an article on CNN today about why stores are putting Halloween stuff out already this year.

    The title of the article is: 'Retailers are tricking consumers into spending more with earlier-than-ever Halloween rollout'

    Thought is was sort of interesting
