Broken News (On a Break!) For Friday, October 31st, 2014




















Happy Halloween, everybody! 

My name is Dave-El and this is I'm So Glad My Suffering Amuses You, the blog with a chewy nougat center.  

As you see from the banner above, this is Friday I'm posting bROkEN nEWs oN A bReAk as I expect to be engaged with some Halloween related activities, none of which involves digging any shallow graves for hastily killed hitchhikers. 

Again.
