Dark Sentiments 2011 – Day 1: It’s Back
Posted By Randy on October 1, 2011
“I could a tale unfold whose lightest word would harrow up thy soul, freeze thy young blood,make thy two eyes, like stars, start from their spheres; thy knotted and combined locks to part,and each particular hair to stand on end,as quills upon the fretful porpentine!” ~ Hamlet; Act 1, Scene 5
As our regular readers know, the month of October has a special significance to Mrs. LFM and me, and Hallowe’en marks the anniversary of our marriage. Last October we launched what will be an annual event here at LFM – 31 days of Dark Sentiments – one each for every day in this most meaningful of months. In keeping with our mission statement from last year, and in addition to regular programming, each day of this month we will be posting articles and items, music and movie reviews, film clips and book recommendations, memories and artifacts, all connecting straight back to the dark side. Some will make you laugh, some will trouble your dreams, and some will prevent sleep as we delve into the unknown, the misunderstood, and the better left alone.
For your reading pleasure, in addition to the eagerly awaited usual contributions by my very own Mistress of the Dark Mrs. LFM, this year will also feature guest articles by some of our esteemed dark friends. Articles in this series will always bear a title defining it as Dark Sentiments 2011 – Day …, so that it can be easily separated from the mainstream, not that anything here can ever be accused of being mainstream.
Let the revelry begin.
