No inappropriate adjective, but what’s with that apostrophe? Anyway, I hope everyone had a good weekend.

    I think the apostrophe comes from “Halloween” being a contraction of “All Hallows Evening,” so the “e’en” represents “evening.”

    Yes I am a cat. Why does everyone keep asking that?

    ‘Pitch, are you staring at my butt again?’

    ‘No ma’am…’

    Well, these are older paintings. Perhaps the cat didn’t evolve into it’s current form until recently? ;)

    BTW: I didn’t see ‘The Haunting’ listed on TCM’s schedule this Halloween :(

    But I picked up Shirley Jackson’s novel and am going to read ‘The Haunting of Hill House’. Has anyone seen the Netflix miniseries based off the novel/movie? I’ve been hearing good stuff about it.

  • You are no fun.

    My cat has evolved into fat and lazy from a skinny arched back ancestor of yore.

    I know you are correct but the apostrophe always seemed so randomly placed.

  • Beckoning Chasm

    True!

  • It was my last drill ever. Even spending Friday night on a pitch-black range in a raging nor’easter firing a pistol I could not see at a target that didn’t exist with hands I couldn’t feel could not keep it from being a great weekend.

  • My cat looks surprisingly like this one, except for the little white patch just below her chin that allows all the evil to escape so she collapses into a puddle of pure cute.

    Now there’s a proper Halloween witch.

    I know, right? That’s got to be a first. The Haunting’s been virtually a staple on TCM during the Halloween season for as far back as I can remember.

    Fortunately, I planned ahead and borrowed the DVD from my library a few weeks ago, so I’m caught up. :)

    I especially like the Batowl.
