Bonjour, Pierre. How's the weather bayou?Mon. 10/15/12 6:33am pierre:
cold temperature are coming to Paris, the winter is sending his minions, usually, it's rather rainy, but today we have sun. what about your side of the ocean?Mon. 10/15/12 6:33am ytseliam:
Good morning Frank. Last minute exam cramming here in the UK. Nice set to help me through it!![]()
♥ Mon. 10/15/12 6:39am fxo:
ytseliam: trying to study, eh? Free from WFMU mixing, makes for a full plate.
pierre: Autumn is usually cool, a "tweener", so to say.Mon. 10/15/12 6:42am pierre:
Right, Indian summer in the east coast, I definitively a thing I want to see. And you guys know how to celebrate Halloween properly.Mon. 10/15/12 6:49am WmG:
Great tunes to fight off a cloudy Monday in Vienna. Cheers![]()

isn't Europe called "all Hallows Eve", everywhere?Mon. 10/15/12 7:00am WmG:
from what I can gather, here it's really only celebrated as an "american holiday," so they call it Halloween. Mostly just an excuse to go to the bar, I think.![]()
♥ Mon. 10/15/12 7:03am fxo:
WmG: mostly consuming candy. Where you're at, maybe costumes are universal.Mon. 10/15/12 7:05am Caryn:
@WmG: yep, apart from a couple of individual bars having had Halloween parties for about 6 years, Halloween has been more visible here for only about 2 years. And even then, is limited to some shops using it as an excuse to sell kids tat and costumes. And for adults to drink and possibly have fancy dress parties. (We don't even do the candy very much, because we have trick or treating at Easter.)Mon. 10/15/12 7:07am Madi:
Hi Frank! Who does what at Easter? I have a bunny suit!![]()
♥ Mon. 10/15/12 7:09am fxo:
Madi,: hey kiddo. with Hefner, it's a "Bunny Suite"Mon. 10/15/12 7:13am Caryn:
@Madi: in some Nordic and Slavic countries, kids dress as witches at Easter and go from door to door asking for treats. So that takes care of the annual "trick or treat" and the dressing up. Additionally, May Day is a dress-up holiday, so the only people who tend to dress up for Halloween are some little kids, and Goths who have parties.Mon. 10/15/12 7:14am pierre:
@FxO : we have "Toussaint" indeed, but there is no monster, or fantastic linked to that, it's more of a religous commemoration. It's less paganMon. 10/15/12 7:17am Caryn:
And then there's "All Hallow's Eve" or "Holy Men's Day" as it's called here, which is very Christian and somber, and basically only commemmorated by placing candles on your relatives' graves.![]()
♥ Mon. 10/15/12 7:18am fxo:
Pierre: make a privilege to Morrison'S grave site.
Caryn: thanks for the info. "Goths who have parties", indeed.Mon. 10/15/12 7:19am Madi:
Amazing to have an international party with all of us enjoying the fxo sounds. Columbus day is not popular, but Martin Luther King day has possibilities, we could dress up like him...Wouldn't that be fun?!!Mon. 10/15/12 7:21am Caryn:
Maybe Columbus Day celebrations could morph into "Columbo Day", and everyone could dress up like Peter Falk?Mon. 10/15/12 7:22am Madi:
@Caryn (chuckle) where are you?Mon. 10/15/12 7:23am Caryn:
@Madi: Finland![]()
♥ Mon. 10/15/12 7:23am fxo:
Madi: and going to DC to the MLK statue.
Caryn: Columbus Day? Is that the special way to celebrate Joe Colombo?Mon. 10/15/12 7:29am Madi:
Finland?!! Cool!
The Columbo day idea is awesome, we can have candy cigars and glass eyes. Kinda leaves Kojack out in the cold, though.Mon. 10/15/12 7:30am Caryn:
@Madi: well, even though named after Columbo, it could also be a day to celebrate TV sleuths and cops in general. It's not as if there are established rules here.![]()
♥ Mon. 10/15/12 7:32am fxo:
yes, Finland is always cold, eh? Caryn & Madi: get on to the upcoming celebrations!Mon. 10/15/12 7:32am pierre:
true, going to Père Lachaise cemetery could possibly be pretty popular.Mon. 10/15/12 7:35am Caryn:
@fxo: well, not always. Summers can get hot. But it's apparently going to start snowing this week in the north, so cold weather is ahead.![]()
♥ Mon. 10/15/12 7:39am fxo:
Caryn, summers can get hot, what with "heavy water" and all. Sorry, i couldn't refuse my "punnage".Mon. 10/15/12 7:43am Caryn:
Pun away, fxo!![]()
♥ Mon. 10/15/12 7:52am fxo:
puns used to be easy, especially in the afternoon, but, alas...Mon. 10/15/12 7:58am Brian in UK:
Hello fxo & folks. You are right about All Hallows Eve fxo and six months earlier (or later) is Walpurgis Night.Mon. 10/15/12 8:05am Caryn:
@fxo: so you used to be able to produce a whole punnet of puns on demand, but now the numbers have been reduced?![]()
♥ Mon. 10/15/12 8:05am fxo:
Walpurgis? I thought that Procol Harum figured in with that.![]()
♥ Mon. 10/15/12 8:06am fxo:
my mouth always gets in the way.Mon. 10/15/12 8:14am Brian in UK:
That was Repent Walpurgis or somesuch I believe. Walpugis is named after a canonised woman.Mon. 10/15/12 8:20am Brian in UK:
What is the chorus line to Show-Biz Kids? I can never be sure. Lost Wages?![]()
