I had a completely different post planned for today. But good plans are thrown out like the baby with the proverbial bath water when one meets Eddie Munster!!!

That's right, I met the Eddie Munster, the boy werewolf from The Munsters (one of the finest programs ever produced on American television). It sounds like a terrible joke, "What do you get when you cross Frankenstein with a vampire?" The answer, of course, is a werewolf! I would try and explain monster genetics to you but it gets pretty complicated.

| A publicity still for The Munsters. Butch doesn't look all that into it here, but working on The Munsters had to be the best job in the world! (Source) |

| Grandpa & Eddie I'd probably look a little suspicious too is I was forced to sit on Al Lewis' lap. (Source) |

| I offer no explanation as to the expression on Mr. Tiny's face, other than than I was trying for a scary monster...and I couldn't see - no glasses! |
 |
| Butch was especially nice and even autographed photos for everyone. Fred & Yvonne would have been so proud of their little boy! |
Butch is a great guy, but to me the most exciting part is that now only one rather-insignificant degree separates me from Yvonne De Carlo! Now that's my kind of wacky tacky celebrity encounter! Have you met anyone of wacky tacky repute? Do you have a favorite Munster's episode? Please share.
Cheers!
Mr. Tiny
