Shauncho. What about a coffin with a zombie coming out of it!

@nosna: I have actually thought about that! I am still pretty new to making things I have thought about buying some of those bucky skulls off the internet and using paper mache to make some corpses.
I swear I think we decorate as much at Halloween as we do at Christmas!

Happy SNT everyone!
I just got back from picking up some supplies for my first-annual Halloween party. Now I just need some local friends. Ha.
I bought my very first inflatable yard thing. Normally I think they’re really trashy, but I couldn’t pass up Home Depot’s 4′ Grim Reaper. It’s unobtrusive and will make me smile by staying in the back yard where no one driving by will see it. I swear I won’t light up my house with gaudy yard art.
I really wanted the skull lights that play the “Halloween” movie theme, but some girl shoved me aside and grabbed the last two sets. Ah well.
I got my girlfriend sucked into the Ace Attorney series for the Nintendo DS. She’s nearly done with the first Phoenix Wright game. I just finished the second one and started on the third.
She even went out and bought her own DS so she wouldn’t have to steal mine. This is a woman who hated video games before. The Wii and the DS have completely turned her around.

Shauncho, I know the feeling. I decorate just as much for halloween as I do Christmas. You could also make some headstones with creepy names on them…and have hands coming out of the ground!!! i also enjoyed yards with that in the front.

@nosna: We are definitely gonna make a small graveyard on our front lawn this year! I am so excited for Halloween! My wife and I went to Michael’s today and they had all kinds of awesome stuff. I think she wants to start collecting the Spookytown village.

Wooo Halloween season. I actually have my costume already picked out this year. I’m gonna be a redneck football fan. I just gotta pick up some Zubaz on ebay…

I don’t know yet what I’ll do for Halloween. Last year the woman and I went as a generic 50s couple (think letterman jacket and poodle skirt… not on the same person though).
We were thinking of having our engagement party in a few weeks (oh yeah, we just got engaged a few weeks back, go us!) so maybe we can just make it a joint engagement/Halloween shindig. It’s gonna be an 80s Prom theme, which should be awesome.
I’m definitely excited about having my second ‘real’ (Stateside) Halloween. It just isn’t a big deal in Australia.

Goob: It ain’t random! I be doin’ me diplomatic duty to try and end the Ninja/Pirate Cold War over the internets…
On second thought, screw em! Ninja’s should be stealthy and invisible, so if they don’t like it they can bloody well disappear!
You see, I dress like a pirate all the time, so dressing up like a pirate for Halloween would be just like me getting dressed in the morning, so I can’t very well do that. I dunno, I always think of something roundabout October 29th.
I just realized, I first started lurking around X-E just about a year ago, give or take a couple of weeks. It be me first X-Enaversary! Drinks be on the Cap’n tonight!

I’m actually spending Saturday night in. I think I might be coming down with a cold.
i’m not even sure how i’m going to spend Saturday night yet.. – guess that’s something I should probably figure out.. – maybe i’ll watch some Sonic X and get out the Play-Doh..
What’s with the crappy blog posts? You get supplemented for your website with advertising, Matt. And what do we get? Crap blog posts these days.

Me? I’m going as Anton Chigurh from “No Country for Old Men.” I’ve been growing out the hair, and the rest should like as itself.
Barring that, Plan B is Dr. Forrester from MST3K. The only problems would be obtaining a green lab coat, green-rimmed glasses, and someone to be TV’s Frank.
Plan C is tracking down one of those “This IS My Costume!” shirts and going as Sarcasm.
I really want to create a graveyard in my front yard complete with zombies in various stages of coming out of the ground. It’s our first Halloween in our new home and I need to get the neighbors in the spirit. We’re also talking about trying to start a neighborhood “BOO” since it’s never been done around here. DC – Get lots of rest, sleep as much as possible tomorrow, and feel better soon!!!

Invader Norbert, plan C… BRILLIANT!
Can I use your idea if I give you credit?

That’s NOT me who made that post above. There is ONLY ONE ULTRAMAN, and he is PANTSLESS!!!!!!! =D

Pretty active tonight. Good show.

I’m dressing as a referee for Halloween. I’m o excited! I’m ready to start decorating my place!
Saint- Thanks. I don’t know for sure if I’m going to get sick, but my throat was slightly sore today. I can’t rest up too much tomorrow because I have football to watch!
I think I might go as a scarecrow with a scary jack o lantern head. Like jack skellington in the nightmare befor christmas.

I was thinking about just going around with a really long straw and repeatedly threatening “I drink your milkshake… I drink it up!”
Actually, I think I want to dress up like Domo-kun for Halloween. I spent 20 minutes the other night looking at all of the Domo stuff at Target – I think he’s awesome! kb – I can totally hear that – thanks for getting that stuck in my head

Unfortunately it seems like everything this year for girls is a “sexah” something or other. I should sell out and go as a sexah Freddy.

Hooray for halloween stuff. Though you did already get an awesome early start, your halloween updates are always the best. And right after that, all the thanksgiving and christmas stuffs. Three cheers for X-Entertainment. After all these years it’s just become part of my holiday season routine.
