October 31, 2012 It's Halloween and that means the Monster Mash will be played on every radio station across the country at least once. Or it could be played in the senior center for the seniors to sing along to. One senior center took it one step further and created and awesome video!
It's always sad when a celebrity passes away, but sometimes these strong-willed, vibrant personalities live on long after they have shuffled off this mortal coil. Here are 10 famous folks reportedly still hanging around even though they were "no longer with us."
It's Halloween in just a few short days, and that means a lot of brains: Frankenstein monsters looking for them, zombies munching on them, aliens exposing them in creepy experiments. But how much do we know about the brain? Could we survive getting them eaten? Do we need them at all? So here's a video explaining a bit about the brain, and whether a "no-brainer" exists
October 24, 2012 Halloween is just around the corner and the kids are already asking to carve the pumpkins. Some people wait until only a couple days before, others have already started carving. But why carve it with a knife when there's a more um, fun way?
October 24, 2012 We have seen this before, someone super creative and incredibly tech savvy sets their holiday house lights to music. Well here they go again, this time it's set to one of the most popular songs in music today: 'Gangnam Style' by Korean rap sensation Psy.

We decided to take a look at a few of Halloween's most well-known customs. What do they all mean? Why do we celebrate Halloween by putting on bizarre outfits and asking strangers for candy? Who is Stingy Jack, and why does he haunt our dreams?
We’re self-proclaimed Halloween geeks. But honestly, how can you not be? There are so many ways to celebrate the holiday that by the time October 31st rolls around, our entire lives are defined by creepy stuff and ridiculous garb. Our pets aren’t big fans of the festive takeover, but that’s never stopped us from dressing them up as a turkey dog!

There's one thing we know for sure about little kids-- they can make practically anything seem adorable. Scrunched-up, twisted sour faces? Check. A boppin' on a bed rendition of Michael Jackson's 'Thriller'? You betcha! Although we're a little dumbfounded as to how this "everything is ridiculously adorable" thing actually happens, we can't help but be sucked into the cuteness every darn time. This is especially true when it comes to Halloween.
Parents, like me, know that kids can give us so much darn grief. So, if we can give them just a little, tiny bit of grief, we not only deserve it - we should enjoy it. And I enjoyed these parents telling their kids, "I ate all your Halloween candy" so very, very much! Thanks Jimmy Kimmel.
