TGIF: Happy Halloween! October 31, 2008
Posted by Jill (@bonnjill) in Fun stuff.trackback
I am flying to Orlando today for a much needed mini-vacation and the ATA conference. I’ll be back in the office on the 11th. I’m not sure if I will be posting for the next 10 days, so please be patient if I don’t. I promise I will have all kinds of things to talk about after the conference.
I wanted to leave you with a non-translation-related video in honor of Halloween. This has some blue language (a.k.a. naughty words), but it is hilarious – and very true. The local news reported that a guy in England was told to take down some of his decorations because they were “too scary.” Give me a break! When I was little, the guy down the street (who had worked for Disney at one point) decorated his house to the hilt with scary decorations – I’m talking shutters askew, witch flying down on a broomstick, coffin opening, etc. – all to really spooky music and sounds. As a kid I was terrified to walk through there, but now I think back on that “haunted house” with fondness every year at Halloween! It totally rocked!
Folks, I hope you enjoy Foamy the Squirrel. Happy Halloween!
