It’s the original [Michael Myers](http://thelastridepalermo.com/hallow.html). Appearing for the very first time in years [In Costume.](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Myers_%28character%29)
I feel so _special_ that he’s showing up.
Just one question. He wore a mask in that movie (which I didn’t see) . How will we know it’s _really_ him?

Well, if Jamie Lee Curtis stabs him in the neck with a knitting needle & he sits up 2 min later…
But then again, I thought he was dead. (Damn that [Activia Yogurt…!](http://www.activia.us.com/probiotic-yogurt/))

Michael not Micheal dagnabbit! He does the opposite of heal.
He shouldn’t show up in any mask but a [Shatner mask](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077651/trivia). So if he doesn’t immediately murder a green skinned babe, or gets mad when you say Picard is the best, then he’s the real deal.

Thanks! If I go (I probably won’t) I’ll try the Picard Gambit.

I’ve the funniest feeling that she’d have one hell of a good time too. Shame so many people get crazy-glued to that west-coast 365 days a year…
