It’s Thursday. Everyone loves a good dive bar, right? Well, one of my readers found one in Villa Park, Illinois. It’s called Fitz’s Bull Dog and apparently this spooky fella is a regular there. He’s missing his lower extremities and his balls have been replaced with a pair of Avocado Seeds, but he doesn’t seem to mind. Not sure what’s up with that, but if you’re in the area drop in and buy him a beer!

Hey Keep,

This is a classic “Dive Bar” skeleton. One of my favorite hangouts in Villa Park, IL.

Clearly the skeleton is missing some body parts but the addition of the “Avocado Seed Balls” is classic. LOL. This bar rocks!!

“Keep” up the good work!

It’s Wednesday. I came across this Halloween display in someone’s front window the other night. Having just watched both of the Adam’s Family movies a few nights ago, I quickly recognized the character on the left as a homemade Cousin It. Whoever made it did a fantastic job. It was even lighted, but I couldn’t tell if it was lit internally, externally, or both. Either way, it was pretty cool.

And then there was the thing on the right. No, not Thing, but a tree of some sorts that looked very much like a Christmas Tree! What the hell, eh?
