All Hallows' Eve - Halloween, Y'all

Get your Alabama I-ain't-sceert on with The Dexateens.

Spooky Alabama Goodness:

"Directed by Paul Hanninen
Produced by Elliott McPherson
On Halloween, 2008, the Dexateens traveled out to 'Old Bryce', the abandoned Jemison Mental Hospital on the outskirts of their hometown, Tuscaloosa, Alabama, in an attempt to conjure up whatever spirits might still lurk there.

They took their guitars, recording equipment, and a handful of songs.

Things did not go according to plan.

Part 1: In which we learn the history of the hospital, the band arrives at the hospital and performs, and plans go awry."



Part 2: In which a 2nd journey is proposed and carried out, another song is performed, and an unexplained encounter occurs.



Part 3: In which unexplained evidence is examined.



Excellent work, Dexateens!

'Thousands of Americans—hardworking ordinary Americans like you and me—already have H1N1,' Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele said during a press conference. 'Now Obama wants to take that away from us. Ask yourself: Do you want the federal government making these kinds of health care decisions for you and your family?' Other prominent Republicans opposing Obama's declaration of emergency include Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal, who urged residents of his state to continue not washing their hands, and radio host Rush Limbaugh, who made a point of dying of the virus during his show on Wednesday"
