I really did not get a chance to watch the show last night but caught some of the highlights and saw some of the reviews and this time I think I was a bit disappointed in the results. I put together the winners and runners up list and I call them runners up because in the most part I thought some of them should of won and for that they are not losers. You can see some of my snide comments here and there about some of the results. Well with out delay here is the list.
Tis that season when the ghouls and creatures of the night decorate the outside of houses, inside of school rooms , gyms , neighborhood parks , stores and just about anything that people could put a decoration on. The most popular is the ever so carvable pumpkins or jack-o-lanterns. So it is a no brainer that there is a shmorgasborg of pumpkin carvings on the web and oh my there are a huge amount of phenomenal ones. I started this by thinking I would post the top 10. I found out even though I had a couple of favorites there is really no way of putting a number of who's the best and who's not. Especially the really well done ones. So instead I am going to just put them in any order as a gallery slide show and add some. We'll humorous ones in the mix that would not necessarily be considered a great carved pumpkin. Just imaginative. Enjoy.
While I was at the Nashville Comic Con and Horror Fest I ran across a vendor there that had some really hilarious shirts and some really cool ones also. The vendor was called World of Strange (fantastic Apparel). And let me tell you it was hard not to buy some shirts off of them. It got me thinking hmmmmm there are so many wild zombie shirts that are just hilarious let me see how many I could find. Well I rounded the number to 5 that I thought Stood out amongst the rest. The first 2 and I think they are the best are the ones I saw from World of Strange's vending booth at the Comic Con.
1. Smurf Zombies - Oh man did I roll when I saw this one. You got to love the humor in the fact that brainy is being chased by a swarm of Smurf Zombies.
2. Gone With the Dead. Also from World of Strange. A spoof of the classic movie Gone with the Wind.
Another two I found at Shirt Shovel which were pretty hilarious among the 37 they got listed on their site were.

A freind of mine asked me what books do I recommend for reading that is is Sci Fi or Fantasy based. And it struck me that I have read classic Sci Fi like the Foundation and Robot series written by Isaac Asimov or Arther C Clarks 2001 , 2010 , 2061 , 3001 Space Odyssey among other books like Robert E Howards original Conan series . But I have not read any of the contemporary authors so I went googling and came up with io9.Coms list of the best of the decade. A great list that I will be checking out pretty soon for myself.
