It Was Halloween and Links Were Leaking!

by

Look Out Behind You!

Disguises and mystery were part of a Halloween Open Comment Night as people showed up as their alterego or even the alterego or their alterego. We had our own version of the Bloggy Horror Picture Show. The Dread Arachnid terrorized us and may have eaten Boxcar Willy and we know that Darth Varder ate Jar Jar as B-B-Q even before the show. So it was no real surprise when the links started leaking as they always do.

The Link Leak Virus seeped into every thing we saw. — The Link Leak Virus is a special strain of the indie virus with blogtipping mutations that occur in threes at Open Comment Night they become a link free-for-all.

Welcome to all of the new folks who came. It was great fun having you!

You should see the links that everyone was treated to..

And now for the Ghastly, Ghostly Plot of Horrors

Thanks to Rick Cockrum who did the honors of gathering the dirt on the despicable deeds done there.

The Mic Is On — It’s Halloween!

by

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

Here’s how it works.

open mike night

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

Tonight it’s Halloween!

  • Urban legends and childhood beliefs
  • trick and treats and childhood pranks
  • Haunted Housed and ghost stories

AND THE EVER POPULAR,
Basil the code-writing donkey, and Milton the Moose.

It Was Beverage of Choice

It was Margaritaville on Tuesday Open Comment Night. We were celebrating being alive for another week. The Margaritas were BJ’s fine idea, and the margarita glasses were elegant to say the least. Still we made sure everyone had their beverage of choice. So things started out very nicely.

Then Link Leak Virus seeped into our discussion of what we would drink. — The Link Leak Virus is a special strain of the indie virus with blogtipping mutations that occur in threes at Open Comment Night they become a link free-for-all.

Welcome to Mike. It was great fun having you!

Delicious links were shared.

The Conversation Was Salty
