Hey its Freaky Friday, and the freaks are still out in force even though its a kinda “off” day in the ongoing Halloween season.
— Guv’s Place is where it all starts, of course, where owner Jess always has dozens and dozens of huge monsters, most hanging from the ceiling, and there are more of the latter this year in the form of ghostly white string demons that use up dozens and dozens of yards of, well, thick string. She even has cleared out a few tables to make room for a creepy corner. And the word is that although big name bands ususually require you to go and see them, sometimes if they are retired and you are their biggest fan (Jess) they will come to you, especially if its the day after Halloween, think Black Friday, and they have been accused of demonic tendencies. So, there is a rumor that Motley Crue might make a brief appearence. OK we’re joking, but are you among the few that get this inside joke? Anyway, there is a costume party this Friday night at Guv’s, as they have elected to take full advantage of the day between Halloween itself and the weekend.
— The Halloween celebrations galour have certain prime nights but also could take in a typically slow night on the (end of time) things and take it to a new level with the longtime characterizations, now in many cases in costume, that have become standard with karaoke at the Bungelow Inn in Lakeland. They will again be at it the Friday after Halloween, (one recalls the perfectly apt name about The Thirteenth), every Friday night, and on this occasion it just might feature the karaoke-meisters attired in frightening/funny way from, who knows, the disco to hair bands.
— If you want the primo in Halloween decorating at stores, and the wide range of different types of specials front and center as you come in the store to go with it, much more than just candy although that is a part of it too, you need to check out Family Fresh in Hudson. All of the aisles as you come into the store have many multiples of scary/spooky characters, and to top it off, there are dozens and dozens of pumpkins all around from a local grower, in that case much more than what is simply being sold. So courtesy of Family Fresh, you can be your one stop spook shop.
Even though its a version of Black Friday, day after Halloween, the tricksters are still ‘taking to the street’

A hodgepodge listing of everything that’s truly different but maybe baked porage follows, and we’re not talking about a connect-the-dots or puzzle-pieces contest or one on Trump’s foreign policy, haha, rather what I saw and what will be seen around town in recent times. Mostly, one of each. Think you have the world’s, or more likely local church’s, best grilled cheese sandwich, (coming from the land of, specifically, well curded and curdled milk and honey?)

- Give props to the several bands for climbing partway up deer-stand-style lofts, then taking to all but the lute. (We saw virtually every other style of smaller instrument at a Music in the Trees fundraiser for a nature preserve.) Yes, they dropped a couple of drumsticks to the forest floor, but perservered as a fan fave. Then a band from The Andes stole the show.
Music in the trees? It conjures up images of a poet wearing millenniums-ago robe and sandals while playing a lute and propped onto the fourth fork of a bigger-than-usual apple tree and doing a balancing act on his ass while he sings a soliloquy or a soffit. Maybe taking a bite in-between verses, to match what listeners chomped on if they hauled it in down long nature paths, making for dinner and a show with duos and trios, and one huge and elaborate band. Well didn’t quite get that lute-ist. Or a bassist so high on life and so-forth stoned...

Questions everywhere? These days, how do you dismiss an ad or a politician, or whoever or whatever pops up and occupies your computer screen, or mailbox, electronic or otherwise? And did that answer in the form of a package or letter or even air waves — coming from a pol or a pool? — ever actually arrive, like all those ads and flyers? Maybe it never will? And surely not written with a quill. As one friend just reminded me, it all starts with one problem leading into another set of problems. Or, like a volcano boiling and brewing and...
- The hearsay vote will be read by some as pure heresy, as Hermening spies the ‘country club crowd’ for how he can putt to quasi-greatness and quash Trump. Then in today’s election there’s a pro-life, run-of-the-mill muckadymuck, a Hong pro-education predictable, and a sharper than the average sheep Shannon (yes it’s a he.) THat’s what flyers tell us about the Day’s Of Our Lives. Today.
Hey today they threw it all back to you, as it is election day, and with it the last Badger gasp — if least if they’re our candidates — (is that the throaty noise they make?), with a soar-throated, campaign-trail rasp made by an audio-version plethora of last-minute flyers that fill our boxes with hopes to grasp, so we can check their boxes when we go to the polls and pick a (partial) winner to move on to full November midterms. Less then the Trump-triumphed manhandling our mailboxes got however, in the last election of this type. Those worn, creaking...
