Gotta love new book day in October. I'm very excited to read this book, "Morbidly Curious." It's a scientific study on why people, especially me, love horror, the paranormal, gore, true crime, serial killers, and anything macabre. Perfect read for the spooky season. 😱📚💀 #BookWorm #BookSky

Movie night time with a special showing of Casper for its 30th Anniversary. I have a lot of fond memories with this movie when it first came out. So couldn't miss seeing it on the big screen again. 🍺👻🍕

Hard to blame the Democrats for the shutdown when you're in charge of all 3 branches of government, plus the Supreme Court.

September was a rough month but started October on a great spooky start this morning. October has always been my favorite time of the year, and I don't plan on having another rough month. Stay spooky

Panel 1: A shirtless man with a large shark bite sits calmly on a chair, hands folded, and declares: “I died fighting a shark.” Panel 2: Next to him, a rugged hunter with a grey beard and cap sits with hole in his head. He explains, “I died hunting with friends.” Panel 3: A man with visible traces of car tires sits on a chair, bones jutting out from a car accident. He mutters, “I died crossing the street.” Panel 4: A simple ghost draped in a white sheet sits next to him. It confesses, “I died changing the bed sheets.” The joke suggests that the pop-culture image of ghosts covered in white sheets comes from people who met their end while struggling with linens.

I haven't played Gears of War in 15 years. I still have the original on the 360 and it's crazy to have it now on Playstation. Time to relive some memories.
