I find myself today pondering another season of FREAK SHOW 1968 and frankly I am not quite finding myself in the spirit.  Not to say it has not been a good year for finding new members to join my crew of FREAKS.  Though many were the rarest of oddities found in the guise of Proof, and attributed more often than not to the house of Weinberg.  I did throw my hand up on a few of these though sadly they were destine to reside with larger groups that my little menagerie.  Lamenting those that got away is easy as I have no proof oddities at the moment so no need to pursue more.  If you do not understand my last statement I will just refer you to an excellent book on this, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie.  Yes it is a children’s book, but I believe it taps into the inner MONSTER in most of us bitten by the collecting bug.  I have to say biggest reason for my lack of enthusiasm is it has just been plain hot this summer in Texas. Yes I know I live in Texas so stop your whining kid for, THE SHOW MUST GO ON!
