The Lords of Salem
As I write these very words,
the witch, Margaret Morgan,
gathers with her coven of six
deep within the woods
surrounding our beloved Salem.
The blasphemous music echoes in my mind
driving me to the point of insanity.
I, Jonathan Hawthorne,
swear before the eyes of God
on this day in the year of our Lord 1696,
to destroy all persons which choose
to pledge allegiance to the demon Satan
and his spectral army.
In the name of Satan...
...ruler of the earth...
...the king of the world...
...open wide the gates of hell
and come forth...
...from your blessed abyss.
All hail, Unholy Father,
make your presence known this night.
I swear on this day to be a faithful servant
to the Prince Lucifer.
- Make your presence known this night...
- I swear mind, body and soul
to the designs of his Lord Satan.
We trample on the cross!
We spit upon the book of lies.
- Make your presence known...
- I'm ready. I'm ready.
To abandon this mortal existence
and deny Jesus Christ,
the deceiver of mankind!
Sisters, stand ready to desecrate
these false bodies.
Show yourselves.
All together!
We desecrate the virgin whore!
Blaspheme the holy spirit!
Laugh at his suffering!
She got down but she never got tired
She's gonna make it through the night...
I Through the night'
Hi, big bubba.
I love you.
Good boy. OK, go on.
Jesus.
Would putting it on the mat kill you?
Hi. Are you the new tenant?
I live here at number two.
All right.
In other news,
state legislators gathered today
to discuss changes
to passage lanes on the Mass Turnpike.
Construction could begin
as early as March 1st
labour unions agree
on the official stan' date.
City officials are in agreement
on the proposed toll hike
from $5. 10 to $7.
The president of the
motor transport association...
Get off the table. No, no, no.
Get down. No, no.
- Oh, hi.
- Hey, Lace.
- How are you this morning?
- Moving a little slow.
I see you finally rented
the dreaded number five.
I wish, babe, I wish.
That apartment is a total dog.
No offense, Troy.
No one wants it.
I don't get it. I know the price is right.
But I just saw the tenant like ten minutes
ago standing in the doorway.
I hate to break it to you,
but there is no person in number five.
I definitely saw someone standing there.
I said hi
and they slammed the door in my face.
Huh. Well, that doesn't make any sense.
But I'll check it out
if it makes you feel better.
- Yeah, it would.
- Hello.
You handsome boy.
Did you have a good night's sleep, eh?
Well, I better get this beautiful boy
out for a walk.
I'll see you later.
- Come on, Troy.
- Have a good one.
The Big H Team!
Heidi LaRoc.
Herman Salvador.
Herman Jackson.
And once again voted number one
by the readers of Dig Boston.
The Big H Team!
WIQZ. Salem Rocks.
You know,
I think I'm starting to like it.
My mother lost her virginity
to that song, I believe.
- Don't talk about your mom that way.
- This is your mother!
We are here with Count Gorgann
from the band
Leviathan the Fleeing Serpent.
- Count? Royalty. Royalty in the house.
- Count. He is a count.
Count, how come you look at me
like a beautiful Frulein?
Ja, that is a my schnitzel.
Can you explain the philosophy
behind your music?
Our philosophy is to expose
the lies of the Christian whores
and Jesus the true bringer of death.
We are not the crying sheep of God.
We are the mighty goat.
Why the goat? Why not the pig?
According to Mr Chung's menu,
I was born in the year of the pig.
Ah, good for me.
The goat has free will
and for that reason he will always be
punished by the oppressor God.
Praise Jesus!
God must die. God is the unholy pig.
- We serve the butcher.
- OK.
Hey, girl!
Give it to me, what you say?
So, a Mexican dwarf?
Si Carlo.
I used to know a dwarf named Dero.
I What you say?
Give it to me, what you say?
Give it to me
Give it to me
- OK, are we done yet?
- I know I am.
Good God, let's get the F out of here.
It's Monday, so you know what that means.
Ladies' choice.
In other words...
- Rush.
- Whoo!
Let's have a drink.
All right, pour it on me.
Andale! Andale!
Hey, mama.
- This came for you.
- Oh.
Ah. Very fancy.
Who's that from, pray tell?
I don't know.
Some band called the Lords, I guess.
- Sure as sh*t.
- What?
It's sh*t.
OK, Mr Negative, just for that,
I'm gonna take it home
and give it a listen.
- Have a good one!
- Bye, baby.
- Salaam Alaikum.
- Mm-hm. Salaikum salaam.
Mm.
Anyone want a lift?
Uh, my head is spinning from the tequila.
If I get in a car, I think I might puke.
Enjoy the walk.
It's good for the lungs, I hear.
- So I hear.
- Hop up on the handle bars.
- You wish.
- Don't doubt me.
All right, kids,
I gotta get home to the warden
without racking up another DWS,
if you know what I mean.
- You mean DWI.
- No. DWS.
Driving while sexy.
- Ow!
- Driving while stupid.
Bonne chance!
Never fear, maestro's here.
I Shiny, shiny
- I Shiny boots of leather...
- What?
Nothing.
Too obvious?
What the f*** does that mean?
Ha!
We gotta convince Herman
to drop the rug routine.
You think?
Who does he think he's fooling
with that dead possum on his head?
He'd be much better off
rocking the Isaac Hayes.
You gotta tell him. He'll listen to you.
Me? I told him
he'd look cooler without it.
He won't listen to anybody.
Dead air.
Yeah. Dead hair.
Dead air.
Oh.
Well, how about this?
In Ukraine,
music always delivered in wooden box.
Sure, whatever.
Ah, thick vinyl. Strong like bear.
Whoa! Sorry.
I think I owe you a new needle.
- Well...
- Let me try this again.
Damn.
What are you doing?
Oh.
It's really f***ed-up sounding.
We should smash or trash this tomorrow.
Hey, you all right? Are you cool?
Breed this new world
with the blessed spawn of your glory.
Your vile taste sickens me.
Remove this hideous creature.
Sisters, we have failed.
Hey. you OK?
Are you cool?
I suddenly got super tired.
Oh, well, yeah, no, I mean, I'll go.
I got a long ride home.
You can crash on the couch if you want.
Really? The couch?
Yeah, really, the couch.
Even though I had a mum
who was a drug addict,
it still felt so really attractive
for some reason,
even after years
of watching her go downhill.
I just knew that somewhere along the line,
I was gonna have to try it for myself
I wasn't the kind of guy who would really
learn from other peoples mistakes.
That was just not the way
I did it, you know.
If I did it, I was gonna do it and I was
gonna learn the lesson the hard way,
which I did, repeatedly.
So here I am, not wanting to learn
from other people's mistakes
and I'm trying to help you guys
learn from my mistakes,
even though I still struggle every day
with everything that I've ever learned
over the last 12 years.
- Thank you. That was great.
- Thank you. Thank you for coming.
I'm off dairy.
Attention all cows on the eastern seaboard.
Herman is off dairy.
Wait a minute. You're off dairy?
