The Addams and Munster Families Become Pirates For Love

 (Everything in this post was generated by AI.)  Morticia Addams and Lily Munster had always felt a certain attraction towards each other. They had met at a Halloween party thrown by Count Dracula, and from the moment they laid eyes on each other, they knew there was something special between them. Over the next few weeks, they began to spend more time together, going to dark poetry readings and midnight walks in the cemetery. As they got closer, Morticia and Lily realized they were both in love with each other. They knew they had to tell their husbands, Gomez Addams and Herman Munster, but they were afraid of how they would react. They needn't have worried though, because as it turned out, Gomez and Herman had also fallen for each other. The four of them decided to take their love on the road, becoming pirates on the high seas. They commandeered a ship and set sail for the Caribbean, plundering treasure and living life on their own terms. Morticia and Lily ruled the ship with an i

Punish The Sinners by John Saul

I love old horror novels. I especially love when I can find an old horror novel that's not written by Stephen King or Dean Koontz (seriously perusing the horror section at most used book stores you'd think those two guys are the only people on earth writing horror fiction sometimes). So I was excited to read this book. My quick, no spoilers summary is, this book is problematic in parts, murky in others, and has an ending that feels like the author wasn't sure where he was going so he just wrapped it up real quick. That being said, the book is immensely readable. Yes I know, murky usually means the opposite, but in this case both are somehow true. The author obviously wanted to bust some of the tropes of the period, and does so in ways that are still a little upsetting to this day. He is also ill informed about things that serve as major plot mechanics, but in the end it doesn't seem to really matter. Even while in my head I was yelling at the book for all the things it

Captain Kirk Saves Princess Leia From Cylons

 (Everything in this post was generated by AI.)  Captain Kirk received a distress call from a planet on the edge of the galaxy. The message was garbled, but he could hear Princess Leia's voice. She was in trouble and needed his help. Without hesitation, Kirk set the course for the planet. Upon arrival, Kirk and his crew were attacked by Cylons, a race of robotic beings. They fought bravely, but were soon outnumbered. Suddenly, a small robot appeared out of nowhere and began to fight alongside them. It was Robbie the Robot, a valuable ally and an old friend of Kirk's. Together, they fought their way through the Cylon army and finally reached Leia's location. She was unharmed, but shaken up from the attack. As Kirk helped her to her feet, she thanked him for coming to her rescue. But then something strange happened. Leia turned to Robbie and thanked him for his help as well. Kirk was taken aback. He had never seen Leia show any affection towards a robot before. As they prepar

  The Hardest Working Man in Show Biz When Little Richard's career finally started to break he found himself in a bit of a conundrum. He was suddenly able to get booked in much bigger venues than before, but he already had contracts for months to play a series of smaller places. Remember this was a time before the internet, and rock and roll stars weren't even on tv all that often yet. So Richard hired an impersonator to play those smaller joints while he moved on to the bigger and better gigs. So for several months crowds watched an impersonator get introduced as "The hardest working man in show business, Little Richard". The impersonator liked this intro so much he kept it even after going back to performing under his own name, James Brown. Joseph And Johnny Before becoming an icon in country music, Johnny Cash was a radio operator in the Air Force. Because of this position Johnny got an early claim to fame that has nothing to do with music. After interc

Barbara Eden and Elizabeth Montgomery

 (Everything in this post was generated by AI.) Barbara Eden and Elizabeth Montgomery first met on the set of "I Dream of Jeannie" and "Bewitched" crossover episode. Despite playing magical characters who can bend reality to their will, they quickly realized their feelings for each other were very real. They started seeing each other in secret, sneaking around to avoid the paparazzi and the prying eyes of their co-stars. They went on romantic walks on the beach, snuck kisses in between takes, and even went on a magical carpet ride together. But their happiness was short-lived, as rumors began to spread throughout Hollywood about their relationship. The pressure from the public and the studios eventually became too much, and they were forced to break it off. Years went by, and they both moved on with their lives, but they never forgot each other. One day, they found themselves both attending the same charity event. As soon as their eyes met, they knew that the spark

5 Fun Pop Culture Facts Strike Back

  Miami Vice's Fancy Duds Miami Vice was a new benchmark for style over substance in television drama. Not saying it wasn't fun to watch, but that had more to do with the soundtrack and the way the show looked than the writing. The show runners knew this too. That's why the wardrobe budget for the pilot alone was $70,000.00. That's in 1984 money too. Zeppelin's Fourth Led Zeppelin's fourth album technically doesn't have a title, the band wanted the music to stand on it's own. It has been referred to as IV (due to it's being the 4th album obviously) and Zoso (due to the rune Jimmy Page chose to represent him which looks like those letters). The most whimsical title I've seen for it was in the book Rock Revolution published by Creem magazine, who called it @#%&. Paid Laughter If you are smart enough, you can turn any skill into a career, no matter how silly it may seem. Take Ann Shalla, who would laugh at almost anything, and had a v

Jim: (taking a sip of his whiskey) You know Keith, I heard that you once drove a Rolls Royce into a swimming pool. Keith: (laughing) Ah, that's just a rumor, mate. Jim: (smirking) Well, you do have a reputation for being a bit wild. Keith: (shrugging) Hey, life's too short to be boring. Jim: (nodding) I couldn't agree more. Speaking of which, have you heard my new song, "Break On Through (To the Other Side)"? Keith: (excitedly) No, I haven't! Sing it for me! Jim: (clearing his throat) Okay, here it goes. (he begins to sing) "You know the day destroys the night, night divides the day. Tried to run, tried to hide, break on through to the other side..." Keith: (clapping) Bravo! That was brilliant, Jim! Jim: (smiling) Thanks, Keith. You know, you're not so bad yourself. Keith: (winking) Oh, I know I'm not.
