Picture Postcard: Big Bang Theory Pumpkins

29 Oct

October 29, 2013

Like last year, I went to The Rise of the Pumpkins in Old Westbury Gardens, It is an old, spooky park, in the middle of nowhere, and the total darkness is lit only by the thousands of amazingly carved pumpkins they have on display. Last year I showed you a set of pumpkins carved in the likeness of The Avengers. This year, I bring you a set of pumpkins carved in the images of the stars of TV’s #1 comedy, and one of my favorite shows, The Big Bang Theory.

I’m also holding back a special Halloween pumpkin to present on Thursday night. As you’ll see, this is the perfect pumpkin to  post on Halloween. I almost never double up on special features but this week is a very special exception.

So here you are, The Big Bang Theory pumpkins!

Imponderable #114: Sari, Will You Marry Me?

25 Oct

October 25, 2013

It was a rare night out for Mr. Blog. The Editors and Staff of Mr. Blog’s Tepid Ride (me and Allan Keyes) went into the city to see the RiffTrax guys (formerly the MST3K guys) do their thing on Night of the Living Dead. It was hysterical and if you want to catch it, too bad. It was one night only. but more on that in another blog.

When we left the theater we saw, parked partially in the middle of traffic, a food cart hooked up to a pickup truck. No big deal, right? Then take a look for yourself.

Romantic, right? I guess so. There didn’t seem to be anybody around. There was a guy checking out the coupling connecting the truck to the cart but he may have been a thief. He was dressed in dirty overalls. We hung around awhile, hoping Sari would come strolling out of the theater on the arms of another guy but no, nothing. Was Sari in the theater? And if so, what movie was she seeing? My guess- Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2.

Sari didn’t come out, and there was no one around the cart anyway. And why the cart in the first place? Is there some special significance to it?

Did Sari ever see the sign? Did she agree to marry the apparently invisible dude? Did the cart get a citation for blocking traffic? Or was this all just a weird NYC thing?
