   Quote for the day:

	"Don't be alarmed!  The woman who just screamed is perfectly quiet
	 now.  You see, she's been dead for nearly a hundred years.  
	 Her bed is empty and whatever it was that frightened her so 
	 seems to be gone.  Seems to be.  But I can tell you this much.  
	 That bed won't be empty much longer.  And other screams
	 will soon be heard.  Whose?  Perhaps YOURS."

	   -- Boris Karloff
	      Intro from "Thriller" (NBC; Revue/MCA/Universal; 1960-1962)
