As much as I love Halloween, I hate wearing a costume. Thats why I have a lot of affection for “costume t-shirts.” You know the kind - the tuxedo t-shirt is the grandaddy of costume t’s.
There are lazy costume tees… these usually just have some writing on them like, “This is my lazy ass costume.” But really, that just giving the middle finger to whoever hosted the party requiring you to dress up.
The costume t-shirts that impress me appear to have another costume printed on them. Like this ode to an 80’s era Michael Jackson zipper jacket (pictured). Brilliant! And the icing is a white glove.
T-shirts with superhero logos on them sort of cut it, but some go step beyond. Wicked Cool Stuff is selling tees that give the appearance as if you’re being buffed out like the Hulk or Wolverine.
Finally, 80’s Tees has a lineup of Star Wars, GI Joe, and other pop culture inspired attire, include a Wookie tee and another bowling shirt from “The Big Lebowski.” And lets face it, if the Dude were to abandon his robe for any sort of costume, it would be a costume tee.

The Fangoria Weekend of Horrors will be held in Burbank April 25 - 27, the same weekend as Coachella, LA Times Festival of Books, and the Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival. But what everything but Fangoria is missing are hearse loads of goth babes, Vampira wanna bes, and other girls who aren’t afraid of the dark.
As evidence, check out this lineup of eerily sexy ladies competing to be the convention “Spooksmodel,” and vote on your favorite. They don’t offer much on background - just a single headshot for each, unfortunately, so I’m giving my one enthusiatic vote for Kimberly Violet Tomaska… because I’m a sucker for redheads.

Perfect for the neglectful gardener, all you need are some hanging planters, pantyhose, and pumpkin seed… and not much water.
Sure, its only April, but you can begin stocking up now, and according to Kerry at Associated Content, pumpkins can keep for a couple years if stored properly.
One tip:
Always make sure to store them stalk down. Some pumpkins have a dip in the top where the stalk emerges and water will accumulate and cause them to rot.

A park ranger found the bat, which was flopping around on the ground, on Saturday in the Crystal Springs picnic area, just south of the Griffith Park Drive ranger station at the eastern edge of the park. It was taken to a lab in Downey for testing and has been destroyed, said Los Angeles County Public Health Director Dr. Jonathan Fielding. [Daily News]
If bit by lycanthropes or any other sort of potentially infected animal in Griffith Park, contact the Public Health Department at (877) 747-2243.
