- I watched “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!” with Boo today.
- That sack of rocks that Charlie Brown gets while trick or treating would come in handy if someone tried to mug the other kids for their candy.
- The butt chewing that Sally gives Linus when she realizes that he’s an idiot sounds eerily familiar.
- The World War I flying ace has obviously seen too much. He just needs someone to listen to him talk. What clued me to this was how music played on a toy piano caused such a quick and traumatic mood swing.
- Linus needs to realize that the Great Pumpkin isn’t in the pumpkin patch. He’s in the costume stores and the slasher flicks. He’s in the temporary candy aisles in the stores and the overpriced corn mazes. Yes, Virginia, there is a Great Pumpkin, and he is found everywhere people start shopping for Halloween as soon as the back to school sales are over.
- Well, the great storms passed through this weekend.
- On a good note, I got to meet my new neighbor, who is apparently into ship building and menageries.
- The money we put into waterproofing our basement and replacing the roof was well spent. We probably got more than 3 inches of rain in a few hours, and the house was bone dry.
- Lightning strikes that are almost instantaneous with the thunder boom are nature’s way of telling you to quit caulking the seams in the porch and go inside.
- Girlie Bear enjoyed her camping trip this weekend.
- The adults cut it short because of the monsoon that was sweeping through, but only by a few hours.
- I’m going to have to show her the trick of putting important stuff into ziploc bags when you’re going to be outdoors.
- In related news, Girlie Bear will soon be purchasing her own cell phone for the very first time.
- Taking the Siamese cat and the labrador retriever to the vet at the same time wasn’t the smartest thing I’ve ever done.
- I noticed that my vet bills lately have been bigger than the payments on my first car loan. I think we’re officially full when it comes to critters.
- I’m pretty sure that my circadian rhythm is set to “Calypso” at the moment.

Let me guess. You gave Boo a steel drum set?
