Good
ol' Ram Inn
The
most quoted "Most Haunted" episode ever in my house was the
Ram Inn investigation.
Derek,
their psychic, dropped into his creepy mode.
(possessed
voice) "Go to the baaarn…"
(Yvette)
"Go to the barn?"
(possessed
voice) "Go to the baaarn…"
Except...
11:06
AM Mr. Brown
"Gooooo
to the pub get me a laaaaaaager."
11:06
AM Mr. Silver
Although
the bar was said to be haunted, there was no mention that we
recall of the barn actually being haunted.
11:09
AM Mr. Silver
So,
although they went out to the barn and demonic shenanigans apparently
occurred -- personally I think Derek tripped the victim and pummeled
him on the ground while "saving him from a demon” -- I was
sure I what I actually heard was:
(possessed
voice) "Go to the baaar..."
(Yvette)
"Go to the barn?"
(Derek
considering...) "Uh...yeah...sure... Go to the baaaarn..."
11:10
AM Mr. Brown
So
they just misheard him and went with it.
LOL!
11:19
AM Mr. Silver
Seemed
that way.
So
Mrs Silver and I will encounter bad-instructions or a
misunderstanding in conversation, and we'll trade off:
"Go
to the barn?"
"Uhhh...yeah.
Gooo to the baaaaarn"
Mr.
Blue
Apparently
the earlier Halloweens didn't have enough black victims for the
studio's liking.
"We’re
hearing a lot of rumblings from the urban community that there should
be more black people getting killed."
"Yeah,
our focus groups are saying the same thing."

PM Mr. Blue
“In
post production Bianca Kajlich's screams had to be dubbed because of
her inability to scream.”
Wow...
you had one job, Bianca.
3:10
PM Mr. Silver
Bianca
"Oooooooooo...."
Director
"Ummm....no....a little stronger dear."
Bianca
"OOOoooOOooooo..."
Director
"Nnnnnnnnot quite. We were hoping for more of a shrieking
'E' sort of tone."
Bianca
"Eeeeeeeeeeee...."
(After a couple days of Mr. Brown talking about JFK documentaries and theories - Mr. Silver)
9:11
AM Mr. Silver
(JFK
Documentary narration over on photo/video montage) "In 1963, ex-marine and
neurotic 'aspiring librarian' Lee Harvey Oswald made a shocking
discovery while rooting through the book depository in Houston TX.
JFK – the president of the United States – was 24 years late
returning a borrowed textbook to his school library, and Oswald
calculated that that the commander-in-chief owed a staggering $19 in
fines." (archive photo of scribbled calculations).
9:11
AM Mr. Blue
LOL
"Ich
bin ein scofflaw."
9:12
AM Mr. Silver
(Cut
to aged librarian interviewee) "Oswald... Well...he was what we
used to call a Book Weenie... He was never actually employed
by a library that I'd ever heard of, but he was always hanging around
the stacks, shushing people, putting books back in place, and wasting time obsessively memorizing Dewey decimal
entries. He seemed like just another harmless eccentric at the time, but..."
12:21
PM Mr. Silver
This
was the weekend’s bad sci-fi action film:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Incredible_Petrified_World
12:26
PM Mr. Silver
Lots
of goofiness.
12:26
PM Mr. Blue
I’m
surprised it wasn't MST3K'd.
12:26
PM Mr. Silver
Nice
poster art...if only the barely-dressed damsel and octopus were in
it.
12:27
PM Mr. Silver
My
sister and I gave it a good riffing. Lots of laughing.
12:29
PM Mr. Brown
Ok,
so the title is like “Debbie does Dallas”? - There was nothing
petrified about it at all?
12:30
PM Mr. Blue
Just
the plot.
12:31
PM Mr. Blue
If
they did find a petrified world it'd be pretty boring.
"Look!
A brachiosaurus! … Turned to stone!"
12:40
PM Mr. Silver
Well...they
walked around in bone dry caves (1700' underwater) for most of the film.
They
didn't have a Land Time Forgot budget. No dinosaurs.
12:40
PM Mr. Brown
Water
scenes - big money.
12:41
PM Mr. Silver
There
was a lot of aquarium padding at the beginning, featuring a shark and
dead octopus fighting to show how fierce the sea is.
12:41
PM Mr. Blue
Ah
yes, the ol' stock footage flick.
12:42
PM Mr. Silver
You
could sometimes catch images of people at the aquarium pressed up
against the glass.
12:42
PM Mr. Blue
"
'Look out! It's a shark!'…and you said you're going to edit
this so it looks like we're really looking at the shark, right?"
12:42
PM Mr. Silver
Then
we had the far-fetched exposition about diving bell projects, just so
we know for sure that:
There
are 2 of them.
Where
they are located.
Which
characters were building them.
12:44
PM Mr. Brown
Oh!
Exposition!
LOL
12:44
PM Mr. Silver
Then
we have the team, talking about diving into the great unknown.
12:45
PM Mr. Silver
The
“diving bell” was a sphere, and was perhaps big enough for 2 of
them to sit inside...all 4 could fit if dead, dismembered, and
properly stacked.
On
the other hand, inside, the sphere was a big enough cube for
about 20 people to hang out in, if friendly.
12:45
PM Mr. Blue
Was
the lead/hero guy very doughy and wore his pants very high?
And
he just kinda puffed his chest out to appear masculine?
12:45
PM Mr. Silver
Oh
yes!
Craig
Craig
Manly Macho, the 4th.
12:46
PM Mr. Blue
"Hi!
My name's Craig and I never exhale."
12:46
PM Mr. Silver
He
wore popped collars before Jersey folk wore shirts.
And
for no reason whatsoever, he started 2 scenes with the shirt off, so
he could put it on.
12:46
PM Mr. Blue
LOL
12:50
PM Mr. Silver
Including
one scene where he had the shirt on, moved to the next chamber
to discuss plans away from the women, and he had his shirt off
after the scene cut away from the women to the men talking in the
other room...where he proceeds to put it back on.
1:01
PM Mr. Blue
They
should've hired a shirt wrangler to hang out on set.
(Sadly, the subject changed. This film was completely packed with crap...I could have gone on for hours. Here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8IQZIF5OMg - Mr. Silver)

One
wife kept her dead husband at home to kiss every night.
3:02
PM Mr. Silver
Nice
3:09
PM Mr. Silver
22
cases of corpses kept at home long enough to be "a nuisance".
3:09
PM Mr. Blue
Heh
3:09
PM Mr. Brown
Yeah,
I was trying to understand the meaning of “nuisance” in those
cases. LOL
3:10
PM Mr. Silver
“Barf-worthy
stink”, perhaps?
3:10
PM Mr. Silver
They
prescribed sawdust, screwing the lid down extra tight, and a burial.
(residents)
"Skip to #3! Skip to #3!"
3:14
PM Mr. Silver
As
much as I might love someone, I really don't see much point in
keeping the dead version around.
3:23
PM Mr. Silver
Didn't
that turn out to be an unexpected issue in Japan?
The
missing 100-year-olds?
3:25
PM Mr. Silver
They
did some sort of census and kept coming up with people no one had
actually seen in years.
3:25
PM Mr. Blue
Oh?
The
kids were stashin' gramps in the crawl space?
3:26
PM Mr. Silver
Here
it is:
"884
were on the records as 150 or older."
3:27
PM Mr. Blue
No
wonder their life expectancy average is so high.
3:28
PM Mr. Silver
Nah.
A few lines down, it says the average age is from different census
records.
3:28
PM Mr. Blue
Ahh
3:28
PM Mr. Silver
Wow.
“The
furor over Japan’s missing centenarians began in July when the
authorities in Tokyo discovered the body of Sogen Kato, the man
thought to have been the city’s oldest living man at 111, mummified
in his bed, dead for more than three decades.
In
late August, the police arrested Mr. Kato’s 81-year-old daughter
and his granddaughter on charges of fraudulently collecting his
pension and failing to report his death. They said Mr. Kato had gone
into his bedroom after a family fight in the late 1970s and had never
come out.“

PM Mr. Blue
"Keiko
Chiba"... Not as cute as the name sounds.
3:30
PM Mr. Silver
So
you're thinking there should be some sort of movement to change names
to match looks?
3:30
PM Mr. Blue
Possibly
in Japan at least.
Keiko
Chiba sounds cute.
3:31
PM Mr. Silver
"Sorry
ma'am...your little girl stopped being a 'Bunny' when she swelled out
to 240 pounds in her mid 20s. She can take any name from column
4. Personally, I think she looks like a Bertha."
The
opposite also holds.
3:34
PM Mr. Silver
"Yes,
we realize that Ethel is a traditional name in many generations of
your family, but your daughter is clearly (consults chart) 'smokin',
and must choose something else. She can have Ethel back when
she's aged a few decades, if she's unlucky...Wow!"
3:34
PM Mr. Blue
Keiko
Chiba sounds like a teenage Japanese pop star.
With
hit singles like "Smile Train Wa-Wa-Wa" and "Gumdrop
Kitty Cat"
3:36
PM Mr. Silver
"Chu
Chu Star Lover"
3:36
PM Mr. Blue
Speaking
of which, ever see any videos of Kyary Pamyu Pamyu?
She’s
kind of the epitome of kooky Japanese pop music.
3:36
PM Mr. Silver
Not
that I know of.
(Looks
up)
Woah!
3:37
PM Mr. Blue
She
takes it pretty far, visually, and that's her intention.
She goes beyond cuteness to the point that it's actually creepy.
3:37
PM Mr. Silver
Uncanny-Valley
Girl.
Mr.
Brown
Well,
Brown Jr. has his nightmare demon now.
It’s
the Armor Man.
7:42
AM Mr. Silver
Like
Armor All?
7:42
AM Mr. Brown
Armor.
Something
that's all armor. He said it tried to choke him.
Honestly
I don't remember him seeing anything that had something like that in
it.
7:44
AM Mr. Silver
Scooby
Doo, pilot episode?
7:44
AM Mr. Brown
All
I see in my head is a samurai suit attacking him.
It
just means he has hit the phase of nightmares that we have to explain
are not real.
7:45
AM Mr. Silver
Past
life memories!

"You're
just remembering when you were a helpless peasant child and were
strangled to death in your bed in the middle of the night by an
evil 14th century knight. Well...goodnight, son. Sleep

Wooooow...
12:42
PM Mr. Brown
I
never really understood some of the wacky looks they gave The Doctor.
12:54
PM Mr. Silver
They're
all a bit crazy. Not the outfits, the Doctors.
12:57
PM Mr. Blue
How
the hell does a 2 year old girl even know what Doctor Who is?
I’m
sure the parents "insisted" she dress up.
1:00
PM Mr. Silver
“What
do you want to be for Halloween, Katie?”
"Pincess!"
"Doctor
Who?"
"PINcess!!!"
"All
11 Doctors?"

"Wan
