Flying Horses vs Steampunk Carosel

At Martha's Vineyard, there's an old fashioned carosel called "The Flying Horses". Matociquala talks about it in her blog here and in a few other posts. She's even writing a story about it.

The point of this post? Someone on Kaja Foglio's blog (which I also follow) posted this link to a STEAMPUNK carosel.

Wow. Bear calls the Flying Horses creepy. They ain't got nothing on the steampunk carosel. Watch the video. Seriously, seriously bizarre in a fun kind of "gotta write a story about that one" kind of way.

Oh, and while I'm at it, my own impromptu creation. Enjoy. @=)

10 Good Excuses for NOT Writing on Halloween by Brandie Tarvin


10) Daylight Saving Time ends tomorrow and gives us an extra hour. I'll pick up the slack then.

9) Candy

8) Hey! They're showing my favorite horror movie! I haven't seen that one since I was 10.

7) Chocolate Candy.

6) I'm still waiting to hear back on the short story I submitted three days ago.

5) Are those Hersey's minis?

4) My editor hasn't called me yet about my looming deadline. Who else will hold my hand while I scream in terror?

3) ROTFLMAO at the Reese's commercial.

2) Haven't you heard? The economy sucks. Epic Fantasy is dead. I probably won't sell my novel anyway.

1) Will you just give me the damn candy dish already?!?!

That carousel is awesome, and not creepy! Or at least, I think the music in the video is making it seem creepier than it is. That girl making the mouth move at the end? Sweet!
