It’s that time of year when stores have scary window displays and the aisles and shelves are filled with bag after bag of mini servings of M&Ms and fun-sized Snickers. Although how they could call a half-sized serving “fun” still escapes me. But let’s get back on track.

Yep, it’s the week of Halloween.

Sure there are those nasty candies that no kid wants tossed into their trick-or-treat bag on Oct. 31. Those off brands and faux chocolates are always the last to be eaten sometime later in November. That is, if they are ever eaten.

If the epic Halloween light show didn’t get you in the mood for one of the funnest holidays of the year, Oddee has a list of unusual candies that just dare you to take a bite. These “treats” cover a wide assortment of flavors. Everything from corndog flavors to dill pickle to curry and wasabi. And, as you can see above, brain flavor. I’ll let another zombie let me know what they mean by that. Maybe it tastes like chicken, like everything else in the world. Or maybe it tastes like zombie jerky.

Hopefully the curry and wasabi flavors aren’t so hot they send someone to the hospital.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
