Dr. Frybrain's Pumpkin Embalmer

9-4-2007

I bought this stuff to soak the pumpkins in so that I will have it in plenty of time for Halloween.  It's called Dr. Frybrain's Pumpkin Embalmer and can be found at www.jack-o-lantern.com for only $7.99 plus $5 S&H.  I am announcing early that I will be carving the pumpkins on October 19th - 22nd.  I will carve 1 each night because with this embalmer fluid I have to soak 1 pumpkin for 24 hours and so I can stretch it out to 4 nights instead of doing it all in 1 night.  Sitting there watching my webcam for hours and hours can get boring.  You can chat with me in my chatroom while I carve too.  This way I will know if someone is actually watching me lol.  When you go to that webpage you will be given a funny name.  Just click the name in the right pane and a window will popup so you can change the name and use a avatar.

Edit 9-16-09: Apparently the people who had Jack-o-lantern.com didn't want it anymore and it's gone.  You can go there and see stuff but it's not the website it used to be which is a shame.  But you can buy it here at Dr. Frybrain's Pumpkin Embalmer official website.  They sell it for $5.99 now and you can also buy a 5 gallon bucket for $5.99 if you don't have one.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

I have finally finished the new Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows which is Rowling's 7th and final book.  It is in my opinion most unfortunate that this will be her last Harry Potter book because I just love the story and it's not too difficult to read.  Harry Potter is a children's book but it has a strange adult following.  I think out of the 8.1 million books sold on Saturday the day it was sold about 90% of that are people ages 20 to 70.  It's a story for all ages not just the kiddies.

I will not be giving you a spoiler warning because I am not spoiling anything for anybody.  I keep my promise J.K.  I loved this book.  I laughed, I cried, I was concerned for the 3 main characters on their quest.  I cried some more here and there.  Let's just say, if you read this book invest your money in a box of tissues.  Or a roll of paper towels.  Or just get a beach towel, you never know.  Your sleeves are going to need to be put in the dryer if you have to resort to that.  Trust me.  I'm a guy and I cried like a baby.  And not all of that were sad tears either.  Ok, half and half.  I'm not kidding.  BUY IT!

Let me just end by pleading to J.K. Rowling.... "Please, don't stop writing.  If it can't be Harry Potter then something else, but don't stop writing."

Cynthia Lindsay

we celebrated the life of Cynthia Lindsay in her Malibu home.  There were quite a lot of people there to pay their respects.  Everyone adored Cynthia as she was always the life of the party.  At the very end Robbie's step-daughter Jackie took the kayak out and released Cynthia into the ocean to be with her husband and daughter as well as their pets.  She did a wonderful job and oddly enough came back dry.
