A world gone insane, an upside-down civilization cannot be real. The world of madness and terror.

It's the Dana Gouldower.

Ah, September, autumn at last.

Here in Los Angeles, the temperatures are dipping down into the 80s, and every vacant building

is now occupied by a Spirit Halloween store, which is fine by me.

For men there are costumes like firemen, policemen, vampire.

For women there are costumes like

Sluddy Fireman,

Sluddy Policeman, Sluddy Vampire.

For people who are attending the West Hollywood Halloween Parade,

there are costumes like Fireman and assless leather chaps,

policeman and assless leather chaps, and vampire and I bet you get it by now.

Our theme today is people who reject the status quo and set out to create something new,

fresh and dynamic, become successful, a cult of personality forms around them, they isolate

from reality and become just as corrupt as the status quo they rebelled

against. Now before you turn the show off, I'm talking about people like Hugh Hefner, George

Lucas, and famous Satan worshippers.

So relax, it's fun.

Eddie Pepitone is back from Scotland with tales of teeth

and cultural displacement.

Eddie will be in Brooklyn, New York at Union Hall on October 24th.

Go see him.
