Halloween Costumes are Fun to Shop For Online

Do you want to save money when you buy your Halloween costume this year?  Do you shop for your costume online like everyone else?  With the popularity of Halloween costumes and the rising online shopping industry, you’d better believe that shopping online for halloween costumes isn’t anything new.

Websites like http://www.halloweenadventure.com, have so many different kinds of costumes, I challenge you to go through the website an NOT buy anything.  I just for this challenge, I will give you a coupon code good for 5% off TILL OCTOBER 10th, 2008.  Just use Coupon Code: PPP05BLOG2008 at check out.

The website has a bunch of categories including:

 I personally like the “But Mommy, I Don’t Want to Grow Up” Costume that features what looks like a child (the costume wearer) riding piggy back to a parent that’s actually a blow up portion of the costume, it’s actually quite creative in my opinion.

And of course you can find more information and Halloween costume news at blog.halloweenadventure.com. I think that if you can find something for Halloween on this site, you should post it here as a comment or even on your own blog. You might want to wait until after the holiday, so nobody steals your idea :)

Any More Good Movies Coming this Summer?

I have had a pretty fun at the movie theater this year.  I just recently saw the 3rd installment of the Mummy series and Step Brothers in the same weekend.

I haven’t been to a Friday night show in a while, I am really too cheap to pay full price, but this time I wanted to treat my lady friend to a night out :)   The movie was ok, but I really hated the fact that the woman is a different actress and the boy is already 20 something.  I am not saying she was a bad choice, it’s just that I hate to see characters change in a trilogy, no matter what it’s about.  The fact that Brendan Fraser didn’t age, but his child from the last movie is now 20 something, bothered me a bit too.  Jet Li played an awesome part and over all the movie was good enough for me to see on a Friday night.

Step Brothers on the other hand was something different.  I recommend this movie to anyone AND everyone!  Will Ferrell is just awesome and everything he writes is just amazing.  If you can picture a movie with 2 40 year olds that act like 5 year olds THE WHOLE TIME.  They don’t break character until later in the movie and I think that was just amazing.  Funny crap, stupid jokes and bad sex scenes make the movie even better.  If you have a minute, you go check this one out!

Summer is Coming to an End

Today I look at the calendar and notice it is already a week from Labor Day weekend!  The summer just flew by, like normal, and I am sitting here trying to remember what the hell I even accomplished.

I have created a bunch of websites, started another blog and worked way too much online.  I also started to use twitter.com again, facebook and myspace again.  I find that I am online most of the time anyways, why not communicate that way?

The summer around here hasn’t been as hot as other years.  Although I am sitting here in the AC today because we just must experience ONE MORE 100% humidity week before winter or it just wouldn’t be right.

In the meantime, I blog here and there and try to make a couple extra bucks online.  If you want to help me out, you can try my new ebay site at www.runjumpfetch.com.  It has everything a dog lover could ask for :)
