Halloween Magic

After getting through a day that felt very much like this at one point, I came home to find "The Great Pumpkin" available for viewing on Hulu.com. What joy!

LINUS: Hey, have you come to sing pumpkin carols?

LUCY: You blockhead, you're gonna miss all the fun just like you did last year!

LINUS: Don't talk like that. The Great Pumpkin knows which kids have been good and which kids have been bad. You'll be sorry.

LUCY: Oh, good grief!

LINUS: He'll come here, because I have the most sincere pumpkin patch, and he respects sincerity.

SALLY: Do you really think he'll come?

LINUS: Tonight the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch. He flies through the air and brings toys to all of the children of the world.

SALLY: That's a good story...

LINUS: You don't believe the story of the Great Pumpkin? I thought little girls always believed everything that was told to them. I thought little girls were innocent and trusting.

SALLY: Welcome to the Twentieth Century!

Oh, Indeed!!! And Happy Halloween!
