Speaking of scary things ...
Rock and Roll legend Antoine "Fats" Domino died this week at the age of 89; the National Park Service has proposed more than doubling the entrance fees at 17 popular national parks, including Grand Canyon, Yosemite, and Yellowstone, to help pay for infrastructure improvements; a judge in Portugal ruled that a man shouldn't have to serve jail time in the savage beating of his ex-wife, because she had "dishonored" him by her infidelity; the National Park Service is denying a permit to a group that has applied to place a 45-foot statue of a naked woman on the National Mall near the Washington Monument, because it exceeds height restrictions for temporary structures and could damage the turf; and in a party-line vote, House Republicans passed a GOP budget resolution that includes a $1.5-trillion deficit increase to fund tax cuts advocated by the Trump administration.
For our final Halloween-month Cartoon Saturday, we feature cartoons about the other walking dead - mummies ...
The old dust-and-grind ...
Oh, that's going to hurt ...
Yes, this would be embarrassing* ...
Awww** ...
I can see where this would be a problem ...
Well, what other sort of music would a mummy listen to? ...
True ...
I can see the problem ...
It's all in how you look at it ...
I always wondered about this when I watched the old mummy movies ...
And that's a wrap!
Have a good day and a great weekend ... more thoughts tomorrow, when we have our final Musical Sunday offering for this Halloween season.

* This was the idea behind one of the funniest and most original ballroom dance routines ever, danced by Nicholas Cotton and Maria Hansen. Watch it here.
** If you've never seen it, the episode of Steven Spielberg's Amazing Stories titled "Mummy Daddy" is hysterical. Watch it here.
Lots of LOLs
