Remember those bad-ass blacklight posters from the '70s and '80s? Not so much the ones for specific bands, but the generic ones of the Grim Reaper riding a motorbike or a wizard on top of a mountain. Those motherfuckers ROCKED.

OK, maybe they didn't rock so much, but I'm trying to get into character. Work with me here.

You remember, right? I used to see 'em all the time at Spencer Gifts. Seems like they always had a lot of pinks, greens, and oranges. Stuff like--well, sorta like this. But like I said, with a goddamn skeleton shaking a scythe or a dragon taking a bong hit or something. Cool stuff like that.



Hmmm, I don't seem to remember ones like this, though. Probably I wasn't frequenting the right stores.

We used to win them at the fair; those and the little square mirrors with liquor advertisements on them. Oh, and feather clips.

Man, I never knew what I was missing not going to the fair!

Yeah, blacklight posters were pretty cool, especially when they were featured in the forbidden back room at your local head shop. Oooo, spooky, stoney, d00de.

I always wanted a velvet Elvis. "Velvis" is what I use to call them actually. Seriously, look at how happy this girl is just by holding onto The Velvet King. I swear, it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.



ps. I always wanted my Velvis to capture him sitting on the toilet holding a bag of pork rinds in one hand and a box of Twinkies in the other. That's just HAWT!

I remember this kid that lived down the street from me had a Led Zeppelin and an Iron maiden "Eddie" poster. He corrupted me. No, not in that way!

Why do you remind us of the things we try so hard to forget?

We should take a road trip to Memphis sometime. You could score some SERIOUS Elvis gear--maybe even find a quaalude in the shag carpet at Graceland. I'll bet there are even OFFICIAL Elvis brand pork rinds.

Haha, no shit! Not to mention getting some serious weaves.

Hey, don't you have a studded belt?? Any chance it's oversized and maybe could fit my big ass? I'm trying to put together my halloween costume. :)
