Just Because I Don't Want to Be Alone in My Creepiness

As I affirmed in the comment section of the earlier post, yes, the young girl did pass away from some mystery illness at the age of 12.

Let the nightmares begin...(because of the commercial and the course of the Poltergeist dad's career.)

Study Break

So I took a break from my project to check the Phillies score and score a snack when I was startled by a Direct TV commercial.

The commercial was based on the scene from Poltergeist when the little girl was seeing things in the television. They somehow morped her in (I'll have to defer to Chris F for the correct jargon there), and she turns to her father who is played by the original actor, Craig T. Nelson (who employed a pretty crazy hair dye job to recreate his character) and says something about their terrible television service.

I cannot tell you what she said exactly, or how he responded, because Iwas too repulsed by the whole commercial. Didn't that little girl die when she was still very little? Is it really appropriate to now use her to sell Direct TV?

I guess I'm off the mark on this one....sleep deprivation will do that to you. I guess it's no different than using any actor posthumously (Celine Dion sang with Elvis, for crying out loud); I guess I was just put off by the whole tragedy of the thing.

And this is why I should stay on my blog-cation until I am lucid enough to ramble about things that make sense.

See you Monday.

Soooooooooooooooo Tired.....

I called my daughter O-seph
