Luke Skywalker’s Lightsaber sold at auction yesterday for $200,000. Add in the buyer’s premium of 20 % and it comes out to $240,000. It was one of a number of movie and television items that were auctioned off by the Profiles in History Auction House.

"Your Vagina is Haunted!"


Tarot Witch of The Black Rose # 53

tarot  I have been debating whether or not to review this book, but that one phrase inside of the book made it a must review, sheerly for the title. A gaggle of dead nurses, are taking back body parts that were donated or not real from the living. There are the obligatory T & A shots as well. Not much substance to the book, but then again I think the audience for it is defined to a certain genre. I generally like most horror books, especially those that deal with magick and witchcraft themes, but this book is nothing more than a collection of pin-ups. I will refrain from a rating on the book since it really has nothing of comparable quality of genre to relate it to. However, it is definitely designed for readers 18 and up.
