Dear DateSpacers:
It’s Halloween, and we’d like to take this opportunity to remind you that just because you’re all grown up now doesn’t mean you can’t still be scared. Don’t believe us? Try renting the 1996 horror movie The Craft–it’s terrifying how bad a movie can be.
If that doesn’t work, consider for a second that in less than a week you may very well hear the phrase “Vice President Palin.”
Still not rattled? In that case, there is one other thing…but, no, that would be almost unethical. No one should be subjected to…it’s just too much. Well if you insist, but proceed at your own risk:
IMAGINE A WORLD WITHOUT DateSpaces.com!!!
Hey, we tried to warn you. Anyway, don’t worry. DateSpaces is here to stay, and we’ve got a whole host of ghoulishly good Halloween treats lined up for you!
1. DateSpace of the Week
Our DateSpace of the Week this week–the latest from Jewel Bako’s Jack “Silence of the” Lamb–is a mollusk’s worst nightmare: Jack’s Luxury Oyster Bar. There you’ll find a dining experience that’s “[s]imply sensational. This tucked-away East Village…joint is super-cozy, with only 22 table seats and 8 at the raw bar.” If you’re out to impress, we recommend the Tasting Menu: “a superior value given the amount and quality of food.”
Try it and you’ll agree: this place is to Ostreidae for.*
Been on a really great date lately? Suggest next week’s DateSpace of the week by emailing eric@datespaces.com.
2. This Week at The Daily Dater
Our married man’s pecuniary ponderings. Quoth the married man, “Never hoard.”
Also, Letty advises two lovers on how to move on from their old flames. We know how hard it is to let go of a dream. Just like Linus van Pelt, every Halloween you’ll find us out in the most sincere pumpkin patch we can find, awaiting the arrival of the Great Pumpkin (skip to about 2:07). He’s just got to come this year!
3. Awesome Flashback
For your enjoyment, we’d like to remind you of (or introduce you to) Disney’s animated take on The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Narrated (masterfully) by none other than Bing Crosby, here’s the whole thing, in four parts. A Halloween classic. (If you don’t have time for the whole thing, at least take this little taste.)
(You will always be our) Boo! Happy Halloween!
The DateSpaces.com Team
XOXOX
*If you got that joke and found it amusing, you probably ought to go ahead and give up on the whole dating thing.
