Coolest Halloween Costumes EVER!!!

I am a HUGE fan of Halloween. I mean I actually get goose pimples thinking about all the decorations, costumes and sugar highs that accompany this glorious holiday. Forget Christmas, forget Thanksgiving and even forget that I even HAVE a birthday. Halloween rocks!

So every year I ask the kids what they want to be for Halloween. We've hosted the vampire, the cowboy, Darth Vader and yes...even a Zebra. All pretty traditional. BOOORRING! I wanted to do something pretty unique this year and I finally found the perfect costume. We are going for the gold this year...the absolute pinnacle of cool.

Drum roll please!^^^^^^yes... it's the THE STICK MAN costume!




Hope you enjoyed that as much as I did. Some people have wonderful imaginations. Good thing too, because it's people like me who need to steal the ideas of people like them. Isn't America freakin' fantastic?!?

Summer Drive-In via YOUR COMPUTER!

It's been a while since my last blog, but hey it's summer and I'd really rather be doing something other than sit in front of this damn computer!

However in my quest for something to do, I discovered a great site called crackle.com. Of course, this site requires me to sit in front of the computer, but when it's 114 degrees outside, somehow I really don't mind.

The site plays free movies and classic tv shows, past and present. Everything from Bewitched and Green Acres to Rescue Me and Damages. They also have full length movies and right now they are promoting their 31 movies in 31 days. A free FULL-LENGTH movie every day. Today is All the Kings Men with Sean Penn and Ghostbusters starring Dan Akroyd and Bill Murray.

Pretty neat site especially when you are on a long flight or sitting in the doctors office waiting for your 5 minute visit from the doctor after you've sat in the waiting room for 45 minutes. (Yes, I'm bitter.)

Check it out and hope everyone is having a great summer!
