Almost That Time Again...
« on: June 05, 2009, 02:06:06 AM »
I am already looking ahead to October's Month Long Horror/Halloween Marathon. I was wondering how early I should stop watching the horror this year. It is going to take a bit of a miracle this year to beat last year's totals of 100 movies and 45 TV Series episodes!

If I stop NOW it will be 119 Days without horror! Please no! I could NEVER do it!

If I stop JULY 1ST it will be 92 Days without horror! Oh the pain! Still too long without horror!

If I stop August 1ST it will be 61 Days without horror! OK... I think I can handle that one.... I think!

If I stop September 1ST it will be 30 Days without horror! It would be torture! but I wouldn't break!

So what do you all think. I so fear the worst and you all want me to stop now... but I really don't think I could do it!

IF I am to beat last year's totals... which would be a miracle of it's own... I will definitely have to go without horror for a while. But the question is how long is long enough?

You did it for 66 days last year, so anything below isn't a real challenge...

So I go with  :thundergod:

August 1.


While NOW is the obvious choice, there's no point seeing how certain you are you can't down't want to do it. You'd just end up watching horror shortly before October...

July 1 is of course a challenge over last year's achievement, but heck, if you keep doing more you'll eventually end up watching horror only in October... :devil:

How about that: You are allowed to watch Horror as long as you want, but you have to wait with these until October  :tease:
