Friday’s Smoked Sunset™

’smokeset’

One final smokeset™ to welcome the week’s end. This week has done a number on a number of us, to be sure, but the ash flecks, smoke-tinged lungs and freaky-looking skies culminate in a gigantic full moon, rising on the “30,000 miles closer to Earth” side of the orbit this evening. Watch for it. Bonus smoked sunset – on Sunset, no less – after the jump.

Slide of the Week

Charles Phoenix’s Slide of the Week: Frankenstein, Pasadena, CA 1965

’Frankenstein’

Frankenstein, Pasadena, CA 1965

Can you believe those beautiful honey blond closet doors? They have no doorknobs!

This slide was clearly marked ’Pasadena, 1965.’ OK fine. But what I want to know is where in Pasadena in 1965 do you find Goth shoes? They don’t have Goth shops in Pasadena in 1965. Finally I figured it out. Frankenstein had to go to one of those shops that you go to if you have one leg longer than the other!

Wishing you the best Trick-or-Treating EVER!!!!

Happy Halloween!
