Halloween Costumes

Tomorrow is May 1, and it’s not too early to start thinking about Halloween. Here is a pretty good site where you can find Halloween Costumes.

Halloween is the one time a year where you can be and dress up as anything you want to be and not worry about it. If I could pick out one costume listed on the site that I could own, I would choose the Superman costume. Truth is, I wouldn’t just wear it for Halloween, and I would wear it under my regular clothes. If I were to happen upon an emergency, I could just go into the nearest phone booth and change.

Department stores don’t always have the coolest costumes. The coolest costumes are found online at places like the one listed above. They have costumes for men and women, and you can find Boys Halloween Costumes as well as Girls Halloween Costumes.

If you want to see something really interesting, check out the Egyptian costumes, as well as the costumes from the 60’s. They accept Visa, Master Card, American Express and Discover. There are a variety of shipping services offered. The have a 100% satisfaction policy and you can choose the shipping service that you would like to use. All in all, this is a very interesting site.

Monkey Business

Throughout comic book history, there have been a variety of monkeys featured on covers. Some of them are intriguing, and some are just downright hilarious.



But if Titano is a bad guy, shouldn't Bizzaro Titano be a good guy? I guess he is since he is doing Bizzaro Superman a favor, but he's killing him? My head hurts.



Sorry Supes, Titano is imaginary like yourself. Now stop whining about the Kryptonite vision and be happy like Bizzaro Superman.



It wasn't me! A guy broke in here and I was going after him! (Wouldn't a talking gorilla be more valuable than a stolen formula?)



I don't know what's funnier. A gorilla robbing and armored car, or a guy wearing a green turban with matching green pantyhose rushing out to fight it?



Of course, Thunda is not to be confused with Tarzan. Thunda has a bow and arrow, which makes him a completely different character, see?

Web Hosting Geeks

As most of you have already figured out, I love to write. The economic crisis has given me an unprecedented opportunity to pursue my dream of writing for a living. Thus far, I haven’t made enough to make a living from it, but each day brings me a little closer to that goal. I have enjoyed writing blog posts about products, and some search engine optimization articles for online companies. I take each writing assignment as a personal challenge to write something interesting, informative, and sometimes funny.

Lately, I have been thinking about starting my own website to solicit my writing skills. The problem is that while my writing skills are okay, I have no idea how to build a website. Should I have a forum? Do I need a shopping Cart? What kind of graphics should I use, and how do I post them on the site? If only there was a team of Web Hosting Geeks that could help me find the right server for my website, all my worries would end.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that there is a team of web hosting geeks that have a ton of information on website hosting. If you browse this site, you will find the web host that is right for you.

Besides the website, they have a blog where you can ask questions. This is a pretty good post here.


Of course, I haven’t decided whether or not to create a site, but if I do I will let you all know about it.

Wonder Woman Vs. Black Lightning

Most of you will remember this post where Wonder Woman flew a plane into the WTC. In this one she is defending it from Black Lightning. This is from the August-September issue of 1976, exactly 25 years before 9-11



Who sent the black lighting and why? Wonder Woman is calling on Hera for help, Possibly to beat up her little brother Zeus.Looks like I will be picking up a copy of WW #225 when I get a chance.

I remember watching the bulletins from Ground Zero, but at the time I didn't know there was a comic published in 1981 that went by the same name. This cover shows a couple of buildings falling in the background, while the tin woman obliviously sips tea and takes a drag from a cigarette while a gun is pointed to her head. Oh, and there is an invisible man in the background looking on. Bizarre.

Salt Lake City Concrete

A long time ago, when I was just 19 years old, I took a summer job with a concrete contractor. My first job was to re do a poured basement that another company had messed up. The concrete didn’t cure right, and it developed cracks a week after it was poured. Also, some of the areas of the floor were green. The first order of business was to get the bad floor out before we could put the good floor in. We didn’t have jackhammers, so we had to use sledgehammers. As I swung a sledgehammer against the concrete in the following weeks, I bulked up considerably. It was probably some of the hardest work I had ever done in my life.

That is why it’s important to remember that when you are working with concrete, if you don’t do it right the first time you are going to have some very big problems. Salt Lake City Concrete is a company that has been around for over eight years, and they know how to get it done right the first time, every time. If you live in the Salt Lake City area, and you need some concrete work done, check out the website or just give them a call at 1-801-302-0402.

J'onn J'onzz RIP

I have a hobby of looking through thousands of comic book covers for things that seem prophetic for the age we live in. Yes, I know it's a strange hobby, but what the heck?

The most recurring character in my studies is J'onn J'onzz, the Martian Manhunter. J'onn first showed up in the 50's, as a backup feature in Detective comics. A scientist had invented a powerful telescope that allowed him to view the surface of Mars. Somehow, the telescope transported J'onn J'onzz to Earth, and the scientist died of a heart attack. The story has now been retconned, the telescope peered through both time and space, to a time when there was life on Mars.

J'onn J'onzz was killed off in the Final Crisis event at DC comics last summer, although comic book death is never final. Don't rush out to buy Final Crisis, it's horrible.

In honor of J'onn J'onzz, here are some covers where he is portrayed.
