A friend just sent me this, as quoted on the Jezebel site:
Lizzie Borden Took A Trademark...
The Lizzie Borden Bed & Breakfast of Fall River, MA, has won the exclusive right to merch bearing the hometown alleged-axe-murderess's name. Yes, that Includes "Everything I Need to Know About Anger Management I Learned From Lizzie Borden" shirts. [Newser]
I gazed longingly at the black sofa when I was at the gift shop, Shelley!

Yes it has been for sale awhile. That is our first sofa Martha McGinn bought and had recovered twice. It really does moan and groan now- SO many fannies have sat on it. The newer black velvet one inside is a tad longer.
Yes the patent news is really hot stuff this week and much chatter in the gift barn from visitors about it. I only wonder why someone did not think of it sooner.

Well the pew was a godsend on the 4th as it seats many people. I like the slate etching of Lizzie-probably done with laser tech. The black sofa is in the front window and is still for sale as of last weekend. Of course this week has been so busy it may be gone by now. 
Last Saturday night after the play a few of us Mutton Eaters walked into the house not knowing the ghost hunters had the house wired. It was dark and I thought they had all gone to bed. After about 10 minutes two big guys came bursting through the door wide-eyed. I guess they had microphones and equipment hooked up and we were setting things off. They looked crestfallen when it was only us- not Lizzie and Emma and Bridget and Abby in the kitchen, fresh from beyond the veil and all too real and unghostly.

I wasn't sure if they had done the house already or not. We recently got those shows here & I've been looking.
Imagine y'all suddenly appearing in costume on their cameras! Too funny!

Oh, we had peeled out of those hot costumes and put on old clothes. Mostly I think it was the voices they got. No, this was not TAPS- there are so many of these ghosthunters nowdays I can't remember their names- just a bunch of big guys in black teeshirts with Psychic Paranormal somethingorother on them. Ghostbusters!

LOL....Thats what I was picturing Tina-Kate. Shelley and her friends in period costume suddenly appearing in the house. 
Shelley has played many parts in the Borden saga but that was probably the 1st time she played GHOST!
