New Strong Bad song. Coach Z sounds a bit weird, but otherwise, it's exactly in keeping with all the great Homestar Runner songs and videos of the past.
Mine is kind of lame compared to everyone's today but the Japanese omelette pan my parents bought me from their last trip (I think they've been like 3 times and I haven't made the time to go once).
Anyhow, omelettes are way easier and I get a better quality end product than a regular frying pan.
Bought a few beers and took the train out to the middle of nowhere to watch the blood moon eclipse do its business. There were no lights outside the station other than passing cars, so when the eclipse hit its peak, it was pitch black. It was kinda surreal when the moon turned back on.
Halloween is coming up. I would like to remind the public of the Contractual Stipulations for Trick or Treating, because some folks seem to have forgotten them.
"I will hand out Candy to Deserving Individuals in Costumes Until the Prescribed Time."
Legal Definitions of each Term Follow:
1. "Candy" is defined as store bought, individually packaged sugar based comestibles, located on aisles 6 and 7 of the local Smith's store. This can include, but is not limited to: Tootsie Rolls, Hersheys, Twix bars, Peanut Butter Cups, and Candy Corn. These will not be full sized bars, because I don't like other people's Deserving Individuals that much.
2. "Deserving" individuals meet the following criteria: a) Homo sapiens of either gender, visually appearing to be aged 13 or younger. b) Will introduce themselves with "Trick or Treat". c) "Adding Smell my Feet" or something similar automatically guarantees Candy Corn. d) Anybody over the apparent age of 13 automatically get candy corn, best case. A hairy eyeball is also a possibility.
3. "Costumes" are defined as 'obviously an attempt to appear to be something other than a normal human child.' Apparent price/effort paid to achieve this appearance will not be a factor, just that a good faith attempt was made. a) Child will also be carrying a plastic pumpkin or plastic bag with Halloween images on it. b) Children bearing pillow cases may receive Candy Corn, at my discretion. c) The really well costumed kids will get my prized Twix Bars.
4. "Prescribed Time". One of the following, whichever occurs first: a) 8 pm PST, b) Run out of candy, or c) Two successive groups of teens show up at my door.
I will issue sufficient warning of impending Prescribed Time by a) Turning off our light b) Turning on our sprinkler system.

10 British actors read 10 British poems. Christopher Eccleston's performance of "Dulce et Decorum Est" is fucking awesome.
