Who is the winner, you ask?
Posted on: December 27th, 2011 by Anthony Rapino 5 Comments

That’s a good question.  Really it is.  Especially because the Holiday Hop is now over, as is Christmas, and I’ve promised to send one lucky snowman-licker a prize.  And by the way, you are all extraordinarily nasty individuals, with all your Frosty fetishes.  I’d say about 90% of you, if given the chance, would douse [...]

Did you know it’s December!?  I just tossed out my Jack-O-Lantern like two days ago.  And wasn’t Thanksgiving yesterday?  I swear I remember eating turkey last night.  Or hunting turkey.  Or pretending to be a turkey.  And now Santa is all up in my grill demanding to be acknowledged.  Well you know what?  I ain’t [...]

The Mystery Revealed

Sandy Musick (winner of the Halloween Mystery Bag) was kind enough to send along some photos of her opening the package.  I thought it’d be nice to let everyone see what the contents of the mystery bag were, partly because half the fun of a surprise is discovering what it is, and partly because I [...]

Coffin Hop Winner!

The tension in the room is palpable.  Well, not really.  For one thing, I’m the only one here.  For another, I just woke up an hour ago, and it takes me at least 3 hours before I’m able to function at normal levels of emotion. But still.  Palpable.  Because I like that word. This was [...]

Happy Halloween!

The big day has finally arrived, and as usual, I wish I could turn back the clock so it could be October 1st again.  I love Halloween of course, but now that it’s here, I know it’ll be over all too soon. I spent last night watching the Halloween specials that have become part of [...]

First, of course, see my previous post to enter the Coffin Hop contest, in which you can win a huge Halloween Mystery Bag filled with much goodness. Today one of my students took a photo of me using an “app” that turns you into a zombie.  Needless to say I had to show off my [...]
