Happy 67th Anniversary Of The Broadcast Of The War of the Worlds!

 "This is Orson Welles ladies and gentlemen, out of character, to assure you that The War of the Worlds has no further significance, than as the Holiday offering it was intended to be. The Mercury Theater’s own radio version of dressing up in a sheet and jumping out of a bush and saying “boo”. Starting now we couldn’t soap all your windows and steal all your garden gates, by tomorrow night so we did the best next thing; we annihilated the world before your very ears and utterly destroyed the CBS. You will be relieved I hope to learn that we didn’t mean it, and that both institutions are still open for business.
 So goodbye everybody and remember please for the next day or so the terrible lesson you learned tonight; that grinning, glowing, globular invader in your living room is an inhabitant of the punkin’ patch and if your doorbell rings and nobody’s there, that was no Martian:

 It’s Halloween."
