So I’m waiting in line at the gas station to get a bargain when I notice, believe it or not, the prices changed and went up while I’m sitting there, can you believe it? Then I noticed after coming out of the grocery store they had dropped below what they were when I originally pulled up an hour before. These are some crazy times we’re in. And, it looks like this recession is going to hang on for awhile.
Then, on the way home I had my own crazy idea. What if I ran a special limited sale of my own where the prices went up and down, just like at the gas station? I mean you may see one price, click and refresh the web page and a different price shows up, may be higher, may be lower, click again and yet
another pr.ice, sounds crazy, but kind’a fun too, doesn’t it?
Well, I got looking around and found some complicated software that would allow me to do just that, have a crazy roller coaster special.
So, I’m having my first ever crazy, you name what you want to give, roller coaster sale, just like the gas stations do, maybe they found the same software, who knows?
Anyway starting today and ending on Sunday at midnight you can take advantage of my roller coaster pricing and name your own price. Don’t like the number you see, just refresh the page, as many times as you like till you get the bargain you want, hit the button and it‘s yours.
So, What am I offering? Well, if you didn’t grab a copy of the Infamous Renegade Magician DVD when it was released last spring, now is the time to grab yours and you’ll get it for less then anyone else, I’ll even pick-up the shipping.
Just a word of warning, if your being affected by the recession, in any way, and most I hear are, this DVD could well be what you need to create your own personal economic stimulus package. Doesn’t sound like Uncle Sam is going to hand it to you.
You can find my special roller coaster sa.le at the bottom of the page, but don’t wait it’s all over and I’ll come to my senses Sunday at midnight est.

I learned this afternoon that Forest Ackerman died in Horrorwood today.
For most of you, you may be saying who??? However if you were growing up in the 1950’s until the mid ’s 1980’s and a boy (although girls were not excluded) chances are once a month you would run, not walk down to the corner newsstand or in my case the Rexall drug store, plop down your hard earned allowance and get the latest edition of Famous Monsters of Flimland.
Inside were many hours of imagination for the young mind and those ads, those captivating ads for all kinds of gadgets and the introduction to the Don Post Famous Monster masks. These were the same masks I latter used 9along with many other spookers) in many of my live horror spook shows.
Forry was the one who refused to let the Hollywood famous monsters die or the men and women who created them. He keep them alive in the pages of The Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine, long after the studios cast them off.
His house was a legendary museum of Hollywood or as he coined it “Horrorwood” collectibles.
Forry you lived a long life and did well my friend in keeping the nightmares alive, now take the well deserved rest and tell the Channey’s, Karloff and Lugosi we never forgot them. – Rick
