NPR takes Halloween Way to Seriously
This weekend, in between my copious television viewing, I've tried to listen to a little NPR. Twice, I have had to turn it off because I was totally spooked out.
First, Prairie Home Companion had a little something with a ghost. Some lady had a creepy voice and it made me fear the world. I don't even typically listen to PHC due to the aw shucks nature of the programming. I had no idea they could be spooky.
Moments ago I had to turn off This American Life because of a horrible story of a lady being attacked by a rabid raccoon. I already have a fear of squirrels/rats, after living in DC with it's aggressive squirrel/rat population. The story of a woman, her son, and husband bludgeoning a rabid raccoon to death was just too much to take.
I am looking forward to more Novembery NPR programming, about Thanksgiving and elections (although, should Gov. Palin wink her way into office, that might be scary too).

You should be honest and tell the truth. . .Loyal Lifeasiknowit readers your lovely writer actually has a fear that the squirrels and rats will fall from trees and get into her hair.
She made it sound as if her fear was rational -- don't be fooled! Glad I could clear up this misunderstanding.
