Halloween-Get Creative!


Tomorrow is Halloween and I have come up with some tips for trick-or-treaters and partygoers alike.

Creativity Counts! Dump the devil’s horns and angel wings in the trash and opt for a more inventive ensemble. Coordinate group costumes and celebrate as Charlie’s Angels or the Little Rascals. Or make the ‘treating’ rounds in a homespun creation. Anything goes when it comes to Halloween attire.

Staying in? Celebrate by watching classic movies! Whether you’d prefer a comedy like “Young Frankenstein” or a real bone-chiller such as “Night of the Living Dead”, there are plenty of choices to properly observe the holiday. Even Michael Jackson’s quintessential “Thriller” video would be appropriate.
So tomorrow night, remember: be creative and have fun!

World Series '09-Game 1



The 2009 World Series begins tonight at 7:57, starring the New York Yankees, and incumbents, the Philadelphia Phillies. The series looks promising, as the Yankees compete for the 40th time as American League champions, and the Phillies defend its title as 2008 World Series champs.
I am overjoyed as the Yankees clinch the AL pennant for the first time since the 2003 Marlins-Yankees series, which resulted in a Florida victory. The team has not won the Series since its memorable ‘Subway Series’ versus the Mets in 2000. But after the strong series against the LA Angels, in which two of the five games played into extra innings, will the Yankees be able to play another forceful series to overtake the defending champs? With CC Sabathia pitching, and the first game of the series beginning in New York, in the new Yankee stadium, I am hoping for the best because a Yankees victory is long overdue.
