Burlesque Noir Spooktacular

[elegantelbow]

Is there any more fabulous way to kick off Halloween season than cheering on friends and acquaintances while they dance the kooch?

The show tonight was spectacular. Starting with a burlesque of Michael Jackson's Thriller (1984). (As I rewatch the video for the first time in over a decade -- two things occur to me

I remember the original release of Thriller... I was 5, but my dad was 26 and bought the record on vinyl. I remember watching it on our little B&W TV set and being very frightened!!

The Safety Dance

I've often wondered if the song is a euphemism for masturbation and that would explain the 'Everyone Look at your Hands' part.

Friended, baby!

I hear from many of my friends that they're going to a party at your house, so I'm totally hinting for an invitation of my own now... ;D

They should know that friends are always welcome as long as they can follow the house rules:

* don't tease the cats
* don't steal the silver
* no sex in the bathroom
* those wishing to engage in drama will be sent outside with squirt bottles

So... come on down!

Hello! *waves*

I've been referred to contact you by ilcylic and ferrousoxide, and I've "friended" you also. :)

I've been posting in my lj about how myself and my fiancee Quinton are planning on buying a house, and basic questions we have about the process. I think that's why O. and G. have suggested I speak with you.

I completely understand if don't have the time or inclination to offer suggestions, and I also understand that anything you care to share is just that: a suggestion.

Sorry if this feels like I'm intruding upon your journal.

I've LJ-friended you back. I am, of course, happy to answer any questions I can for you
