Hello to all you pumpkin-carving, tree-decorating, candy-buying, carol-humming, costume-creating, present-buying, can-you-wait-until-December enthusiasts! For real, it just barely turned October the day you're reading this, and I'm seeing people and businesses already preparing for Christmas. I totally get that there are a select few who still believe Halloween is a "devil's holiday," and you're super-paranoid
of bad things happening, so you'd rather fish for candy out of a car trunk in a church parking lot during daylight. That doesn't give you carte blanche to skip Halloween and Thanksgiving, and pretend FM 100 is playing X-mas tunes 24/7 by using Spotify! We've got two weeks' worth of events to help remind you it's still the fall; check them out below. But first, we have some artwork from
Poor Yorick Studios, which just held its latest open house event last weekend. You can see photos I took of new artwork on
my Facebook page, but I thought I'd choose something that fit the mood.
