The Great Pumpkin

As Halloween approaches once again, magic can be felt in the air. It's unmistakable: the crisp leaves on the ground, the anticipation for hoards of candy, and the unrelenting hope that this year we might catch a glimpse of The Great Pumpkin.



Every year, people gather in pumpkin patches, on doorsteps and in news operation managers' offices, eagerly awaiting an appearance from the mythical Great Pumpkin. This year, those of us at our TV station were granted a visit, and much earlier than usual.

What a treat! But the craziest part was that it bared an uncanny resemblance to our news operations manager, the self-proclaimed "El Guapo"...

Have you ever noticed that Guapo and The Great Pumpkin have never been seen together in the same place at the same time? How strange...

Actually...i send my pumpkin head out to do my bidding...whatever that may be. Usually it's to get me a sandwich, but the pumpkin wants to do more. It wants to kill! BOM-BOM-BOM!!!!!! (that was supposed to sound like music from a movie.)
