I love the theme song to The Munsters.  

The instrumental theme song, titled "The Munsters's Theme", was composed by composer/arranger Jack Marshall.  The theme song's lyrics, which the sitcom's co-producer Bob Mosher wrote, were never aired on CBS. Described by writer Jon Burlingame as a "Bernard-Herrmann-meets-Duane-Eddy sound", the theme was nominated for a Grammy Award in 1965.

That theme and the Lost In Space theme are my favorites.

I think both use some sort of brass instrument like a tuba or trombone for the low end (bass notes).  Really 'splatty' sounding.  Natural distortion.  :)

I find the non lyric version preferred/superior.

Guess That Comic

I'll reveal more if no one gets it (probably every 20 to 60 minutes or so).

The transparent AF15 in the background is there to prevent google searches from identifying the book.  :)

or just coat buttons and doorknobs with copper, which kills on contact.

That's a good idea.  I'll see if I can get some copper sulphate and do some electroplating.  That'll pass some time constructively.

Cu would be a step up from what we have now, but I'm not sure it would be effective in high use areas since it takes time for it to kill.  Also holograms would allow multi-layered menus in different configurations.  Also, I want holograms. lol

It's been a very fascinating and diverse thread today, from discussions about coffee through to copper plating.
