It Was A Dark And Stormy Night...

....in Dayton, Ohio. The year, 1978. For one terrifying hour that awful night, sweet, loyal dogs rabidly turned on their masters. Oh the humanity! Oh the vile, atrocious, repellent, revolting, deplorable horror! Oh the abhorrent, appalling, ghastly, gruesome, heinous, lurid, unholy, hideous, repulsive mess!
Oh the overly embellished and ridiculously long
sentences! I was but a budding news photographer then and captured the only known image of that event. If you feel you must do so, I have added this oh so repugnant picture for your viewing displeasure...

Get out the smelling salts...

You have never seen anythin' like it...
~~~~
It's pretty bad ya know...
~~~~
~~~~
I am serious now...
It is THAT bad.
~~~~
~~~~
You better believe me!
~~~~
Okay...if you think you can handle it...
Ready?
~~~~
Are you sure?
~~~~
Here we go...

BOO!
Happy Halloweenie!
Love and Hugs,

  12. Hi Suzie.....so that's Bill? The guy that treated us all to a trip to NYC...He was kind of cute, what's he looking like these days?? I've been married 38 years ago today and my husband is twice the man he used to be....Yes, his weight has actually doubled in all these years...I guess it's my cooking...

  20. Hi Suzy hope yours was filled with sweet treats and no tricks...did Brian stop by in his Pirate costume? I heard he was in the neighborhood...and did you hear the news that his was the only memorable performance in his new movie with those two other big stars? No? Well, it is so, Mr. D is the scene stealer! (Like we didn't know!)
