Could not ask for a better birthday gift from you I am sure you had more fun doing this than the children did. god to see family coming together like this.
Great visuals especially--A yellow liquid trickled down one tanned leg as she bolted

Your family sounds like a lot of fun. Each one has a different voice, especially your practical wife who tries to keep you in line. L0L
yellow liquid trickled down one tanned leg -great visual.
What a great idea for a birthday party.
Does she really call you Uncle Deano?

P.S. Be glad you didn't scare the shit out of anyone. :-)

    Hah-ha, well, we tried, Shari. Yeah, Selena, my wife's niece, has called me Uncle Deano since she was very small. All of my family and friends call me Deano. I think she started it, LOL.

    Thanks so much for the review. :}

I thought I was the only one who loved to scare kids. The littler the better. I still do it to my kids, but now they react by punching so it isn't as much fun. I used to dress up and chase the kids in my sister's neighborhood. There ain't nothing more refreshing than seeing kids terrified. Great recount and story. Gretchen

Dean, what a lovely family, really cool picture. Your story is so "freaking" funny. I can tell your "creativity" proceeds your reputation....your ghoulish imagination is vintage Kuch. I was thoroughly entertained from beginning to end.

What a fun and clever idea for a party and Uncle Deano was just the guy to fix it up. Your story was engaging from start to finish and the group picture provided nice imagery. Thanks so much for sharing this experience with us. 8-)

    I drew up the plot and plans, but my wife organized it all and got the ball rolling. She's a real go-getter, that one!

    Thanks so much for the thoughtful review. :}

Well I think you did a good job. You certainly are a scary looking bunch. LOL I don't like being scared. My sister did enough scaring me as it was. LOL Your story was very entertaining with lifelike dialogue. Oh! I'm sorry is Lifelike a bad word? LOL Well done! Nancy

A really humorous look at a horror scene. Too bad one of the kids peed in their pants but that's the risk of this ghastly show, mon amie. Well done, Dean.

    Thanks, Rod, and we probably would not have been so hard on her if she hadn't acted all big and bad in the beginning. Don't ever let someone tell my that they are incapable of being scared. I know better, LOL. :}

Now that is one cool birthday party. Maybe I am weird, but even as a little kid, I only liked haunted houses that scared the shit out of me. A good fright in good fun does no damage. Just bring clean underwear.

    That's right, Ed, and I've always liked them too. They never really scared me because I was wise enough to realize it was all just pretend.

    Thanks so much for the thoughtful review, my friend. :}

Hi Dean,

Greatest show unearthed is very clever. Tiny spag: fisrst
LOL, this line cracked me up. "You got red paint on your teeth there, Munchkin," I informed her. "It looks cool, though...like you been gnawing on someone."

This was so much fun to read! I'm still smiling and laughing. I'm sure your kids appreciate having you for a Dad. You're not the common garden variety, hee hee.

Hugs,
Lou

    Hah, nope, I am far from "garden variety", Lou, LOL. I think they like having me around. We sure have lots of fun together, even if it is a bit warped.

    Thanks so much for the exceptional rating and for catching that danged SPAG for me. If I only had a nickle... :}
