Tuesday, October 29, 2013 WE ARE EXPERIENCING TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES!

Dammit!  I had a full slate this weekend and knew I couldn't reliably get to a keyboard, so I wrote up and pre-published a bunch of Countdown posts in advance.  Well, Blogger must have hiccuped (or, far more likely, I done screwed up), because nothing got posted.

I know that you, dear Imaginary Reader, really look forward to the Halloween Countdown each year - dare I say that it gives your unexistence meaning? - and I can only offer my heartfelt apologies and the promise of a full refund of the purchase price of this blog.  Look for that check in the mail!
