Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for August 30, 2009

Grace as a Poltergeist……. Love the 1950s look.

This is terrific.

Kid’s going to have nightmares for weeks.

“There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture …”

Mommy! Come quick! Rescue little Johnny from That Lady! –Before the kid is traumatized!

Oh heck, another rerun of “The Bad Seed.”

Wow, Sisyphos… That Lady??? You talk like you don’t know who Grace the Face is.

See Aug 18-19. Grace is 170 years old.

The kind of girl you want to take home to meet the folks. It’s a good thing we can’t see any lower in the picture-he probably messed himself. Who wouldn’t understand?

Well, judyparka, I speak from little Johnny’s perspective. I guess he wouldn’t know Grace….

Honey, you can’t hide your dyin’ eyes…

What was he watching before? It looks like Chippendale dancers on there.

Welcome back, Grace. We missed you.

LOL, Reminds me of “Scary Movie 3”.

I love and respect great imagination.

My knees are aching just looking at how he’s sitting. Can I say that or am I being rude again BURGUNDY2?

Reminds me of The Ring

Don’t look into her eyes! That’s how she drains your life energy.

I think it’s too late. Grace has already taken over his mind.

There are TWO Burgundys? Or is that Burgundies?

I could have sworn that little girl is the one from the Addams Family…no?

I like the big bolty things near the top of the set.

I guess changing the channel isn’t an option. How many channels were there back then?

Scoot back. You’re too close to the TV.

That looks like a great show.

BobWells: No, that’s not Wednesday Addams. It’s the face of a little girl taken from an old photograph. See Judy Parka’s comment above.

painedsmile: I can only speak for Chicago. We had CBS, channel 2, NBC, channel 5, and ABC, channel 7. We also had local channel 9 WGN, and PBS Channel 11.

Margueritem, Chicagoland still has all those plus a host of others, now, on broadcast TV (i.e., not cable). But since the changeover to digital transmission, reception is a bit dodgy ; if you [read: “I”] have indoor (“rabbit-ear”) antennas, you [read: “I”] may not be able to get all the stations that you [read:”I”] did on analog unless your TV set, your windows, the stars, and the Wizard of Oz are all lined up in perfect conjunction. (grumble, grumble)

You wouldn’t have this problem if you made the switch to digital.
