Thank you for providing me with a monster even sillier. PS. I think there was a Halloween episode of THE SIMPSONS with the same plot and it ended with the wig shooting it out with the cops, anyone watch SIMPSONS to verify this if i wasn't stoned or somenthing?.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-11746059021849867862008-11-24T17:30:00.000-06:002008-11-24T17:30:00.000-06:00Best supernaturally vengeful blond wig story ever!...Best supernaturally vengeful blond wig story ever!

My grandmother worked the wig counter at Zares when I was a kid back in the 70's (remember that store?) and she'd bring all kinds of wigs home nestled snug on those styrofoam heads. She had 20 or 30 of them, granny was a bit of a kook... anyway, she kept them all on display in her spare bedroom which was also the bedroom I had to sleep in when I stayed over there occasionally. What a terrifying night that was, all alone in a dark room with a bunch of severed styrofoam heads. Even today if I hear a cooler squeak I duck under some covers.<BR/><BR/>TOMORROW: Attack of The False-Eyelashes!Mr. Karswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15889717828895556186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-42884401589050373842008-11-24T14:15:00.000-06:002008-11-24T14:15:00.000-06:00If I were ever to murder someone, I would certainl...If I were ever to murder someone, I would certainly try to remember that I must carefully wear <I>a piece of the victim</I> in front of <I>all his friends</I> around the very spot <I>he was last seen</I>.<BR/><BR/>I am pretty sure this guy would not have eluded capture.
