Today Marks The Start

Today marks the beginning of 'Unholy Week'. It ends with 'Dia de los Muertos'. Yes that most excellent time of year when the heebies and the jeebies put on their best costumes and frolic the week away doing "unholy" things for all to enjoy. Halloween is one of my all time favorite holidays and the celebrations end with another of my favorite all time holidays and that would be Dia de los Muertos. Day of the dead Mexican version is another of my all time favorite holidays. Dia de los Muertos stretches that Halloween celebration into a two day festival of dead people and stuff like that there. You get to visit cemeteries and bring marigolds and eat Dia de los Muertos food. Bring on those chili verde enchiladas. Chili Rellenos too Yummy! Paint up your chillin's and throw scary shit at your neighbors. Fill up a big bowl with candy and greet the little trick-or-treaters as they come a banging on your door expecting handfuls of the good candy and not the crappy candy. KitKat bars are always a big hit. So are Skittles but I've never understood the fascination with Skittles. Personally I think the Skittles mostly suck. Oh get it? That's a play on words. Skittles suck and you have to suck Skittles to get them to do that candy thing. Oh yes, a most excellent time of year to be quite certain. Disembowel pumpkins and stuff a candle inside the carcass. Be sure to carve up a spooky pumpkin face. Be creative and let that gutted pumpkin shine for the world to see. You can always box up those pumpkin guts and send them off to your least favorite congressperson. That should bring a smile to any politicians face. If it didn't require all that tedious paperwork and incriminations, well, you could always just carve up a politician's face. What a nifty way to celebrate not only Halloween but Dia de los Muertos as well. There is simply no end to the merriment one could have and remain out of jail at least for the present. Don't do anything rash for hell sakes. I'm just being flippant. So with the beginning of 'Unholy Week' that will end with 'Dia de los Muertos', let us delve into the machine art and let the fun rise from the grave. Ewww is that spooky or what.
