For the last 2 months, I have been buying alot of Halloween decorations. I mean honestly, can your house be over decorated for halloween...no!

By the way, Big Lots is a gem and everything is now 30% off as of yesterday....

This is so funny! I was in Big Lots yesterday and thought to myself "who the hell buys all of this Halloween sh*t?" Now I know. :)

I have the same addiction!

Big Lots is the poo for Halloween deco. They have lots of scary stuff. Walgreens is good too, if you shop there closer to Halloween like the day before they will mark everything down to get it out. Big Lots is good to go to after Halloween for sales if you plan on doing this next year too. The dollar tree usually has those small gothic tombstones, they're pretty neat.

But IMO, if you want it to look good invest in some black lights, the real ones not the incandescent kind. You can have minimal decorations and it still look awesome with black lights & spiderwebs. Make sure you take the time to really spread out the spider webs, they will look so much better and if you can only find the spider rings make sure you cut the ring part off cause it looks stupid.

I made a party punch once and used cranberry juice to fill latex gloves(washed them first), freeze the filled gloves and use it to float in the punch. The funny thing was the fingers ended up falling off in such a way where it looked like it was giving you the finger.

You can do the same thing with a cheap plastic mask just cover the eyes & nose holes with tape.

Tonic water http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonic_water will glow under a black light. Pretty cool effects when you put in fake snakes, spiders, body parts in old jars with the tonic water.

I was just at the store and saw some gummy body parts. I have a whole collection of body parts, they are made out of that sticky rubbery stuff that will stick to the wall when you throw it.

Use glow in the dark hairspray on mirrors, windows & other washable nonporous things.

Rig a big nasty fake spider on a fishing line over your door & connected to something from above like a light so when you open your door the spider will appear as if it's crawling back up to it's web.

Spiderwebs. Make sure you take the time to really spread out the spider webs, they will look so much better and if you can only find the spider rings make sure you cut the ring part off cause it looks stupid.

I have real spider webs! Anyone wants them are welcome to it. :D

(It's tough for me to reach up into corners from my "chair". I usually hire Merry Maids once a year to come in and clean up high.)

Pshh, don't use that as an excuse. I'm probably only a couple inches taller than you when I'm standing. I have a duster with a 20ft telescopic handle on it. ;)

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By frankw · Posted

      You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.

      It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
