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. ;)

      Panthers HC Dave Canales hints at adding more weapons for QB Bryce Young

      By strato · Posted

      I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner.

      2025 Draft Re-Grades (Or, One Idiot Doubles Down)

      By Raskle · Posted

      How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.

      Who was the better HC - Rivera or McDermott?

      By Basbear · Posted

      I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
