Halloween Movie Marathon


Our really good friends do a fun Halloween Movie Marathon every year. They are secretly known as "The mulk" "She mulk" "Snorr" "Ray-Ray" and "Kitty". Every weekend in October they have a movie night. They usually start about 5:00 pm and go till 11:00. They show great movies, ones I have never seen before. They are always entertaining and treat filled nights. Love these guys and hope they keep the tradition going for at least 50 more years :)

So here is the list of top 10 things I learned from this Saturdays round of movies:

10. I learned what the word Bushwa means = rubbishy nonsense; baloney; bull.
9. Never run in high heels. 
8. When you think the gun is out of bullets, just take a chance and run.
7. If you bury your lottery ticket in the casket with your father...just leave it there.
6. When being held at gun point, just spray gas in the bad guys eyes.
5.If a Dr. starts to admire your tattoo...be scared.
4. I learned what the word Egregious means = conspicuous; especially : conspicuously bad : flagrant.
3.Snake venom will kill bad guys.
2. Guys with uni brows are always evil.
1.This is the best one......There is NO point in locking your door if you leave the window open! 

Hope you have a great Halloween...go watch a few scary movies.

This is the list of movies they have planned for the month.

Fear the Night!
