Cool Ghoul

 My sister Beth just sent me this picture. Where she found it is anybody's guess. From the look of things it must have been my sister Lisa's birthday, not be be confused with the Drive-By Truckers song. Mainly I like the picture because of my ridiculously cool Cool Ghoul t-shirt. For those of a certain generation and geographic intimacy you'll know that the Cool Ghoul was the Saturday night creature feature host in Cincinnati. Most of my childhood centered around surviving until it was time for the late night Saturday monster movies.

Oh, and I wasn't smiling because I never smiled in any pictures growing up, ever. Draw your own conclusions about my childhood.
