All Hallows Eve.

A time of sharing and openess. Love, joy, excitement, childhood, expressing oneself and eating sweets. The Great Pumkin roams the skies. People get to acknowledge their fertile shadow side and experience the creative force within it.
Happy Halloween Charlie Brown.

interesting post

My body I will give to pleasures, to diversions that I’ve dreamed of, to the most daring erotic desires, to the lustful impulses of my blood, without any fear at all, for whenever I will— and I will have the will, strengthened as I’ll be with contemplation and study— at the crucial moments I’ll recover my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

cool post for some reason i feel more appreciative of the holiday itself this year, rather than it just being an opportunity to get fucked up and wander around. not that that won't be happening, but i feel like now i understand how it's more than just candy and costumes

Does this robe make me look fat? A ritual for the magickal appearance of candy on Halloween. Reminds me of Halloween 1973 when my college roommate and I were going to evoke the demon of lust, Asmodeus. While preparing for the midnite rite, gorgeous Linda Rubin decided to take this one and only opportunity to knock on my door and ask me for a driving lesson to...drive a stick shift! *Schwing!* I turned her away 'cause I was engaged in a serious occult experiment! Looking back, it was like God saying "Here Mark, you don't need to ask the devil," but of course, another fine example of not being able to see the forest for the trees. Bye-bye O thou freckle-faced, strawberry-blonde, busty-babe from the past. *Foosh!*

You turned down a total babe to evoke the demon of lust? Man, I love a little irony on this holiest of days.
Happy Halloween y'all, I think I'm gonna drink a bottle of red wine, don a black cloak and scare the kids with a little doom metal.

Nothing like stumbling around drunk in a cloak with metal playing to get the spirit of Halloween flowing. Good Times
