This is another year when I'm not in much of a Halloween mood. More specifically, I'm not down with the frights that go with it. It could be argued that escapist fare such as "CBS Radio Mystery Theater" is an effective way to tune out the madness this country is experiencing. To an extent, that's true. Given the state of things, however, I'm in no mood to listen to anything eerie--even a work of fiction.
It's best to stick with "The Great Pumpkin Waltz" this year, I think.
