"And as Always, 99 Thanks...."

I've mentioned before how much I love 99 Cents Stores. And they are truly, as avertised,"your Halloween Headquarters!" In adddition to jack o'lanterns, plastic spiders, & party supplies, I found these cool, bright orange, tin flower pots.
And the piece de resistance: black silk (???) roses with real dew (glue!) drops on the petals! Place roses in pot & voila! Instant scary centerpiece & for TWO DOLLARS!
{wow! how affected am I? Two French phrases in one sentence!}

You know it's getting close to trick-or-treat time when 3 out of the top 5 Box Office winners are horror flicks: THE GRUDGE 2, THE DEPARTED & TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE: THE BEGINNING Rounding out the top 5 were OPEN SEASON (an animated feature about hunting) & ROBIN WILLIAMS' MAN OF THE YEAR. Given Robin's recent offerings maybe we should include that in the horror group as well.

Favorite quote of the weekend award goes to DR.NANCY SYNDERMAN on the TODAY WEEKEND Edition:
"Sleep is the new sex...no one is getting enough!"
