Ahh, Elvira...

I Gotta Have A Halloween Posting, Right?

Well, something has occurred to me that many have probably thought of before, but there are a couple of things that simply go with Halloween when discussing pop-culture.

Halloween (The Movie)
Charlie Brown Halloween Special (I got it on Blu-Ray this year!)
Trick or Treat (of course)
and...
ELVIRA!

So what's the big deal about Elvira you ask?  Simple... She's got the sex appeal, the sarcastic, yet funny, remarks during movies, and the number one selling female Halloween costume of all time. (unconfirmed, but I read that somewhere)

Wait, She's How Old?!?

Anyway, so let's talk just a few fun facts about the wonderful Elvira.  Born in 1951, Elvira is 60 years old.  You read that right... SIXTY!  We all know that's pretty amazing since she still looks about the same once she's in makeup and has her hair on.

So given how long she's been in the public eye, there isn't much mystery around the woman (Cassandra Peterson) who is Elvira, but there is some interesting little tidbits that can be found out when researched.  Her age is one of the things that I did not expect, but then again, she's being doing her Movie Macabre since I was born.

She Has A Personal Life Too!

Yeah, she's not just Elvira, she also is a real person and mostly a vegetarian. She hits the gym almost daily and she supports PETA.  Just a few tidbits... I'll give a few more and then wrap it up after the pictures below.

Last few facts.

Born: Cassandra Peterson (September 17, 1951)
Dated Elvis briefly (according to her Wikipedia Page)
Worked as a Go-Go Dancer, Showgirl, and Actor (Yes, nudes if you look for them)
Measurements: 34-21-34 (Source: Celebrity Sleuth magazine)
Although she has appeared in nude layouts, she has never appeared nude as the Elvira character.
Her website charges $45.00 for an autographed 8x10

Well, that's the long and short of it... There's more info on her IMDB, Wikipedia, or her own website if you care or dare to take a stare... Also, don't forget to follow me on here or on twitter or the likes...

Zombie Apocalypse, The Rapture, and Last Friday

ARE YOU READY!?!?!

Well, I woke up this morning to find out that people are seriously worried about the world ending tomorrow.  Twitter is abuzz with Zombie Apocalypse talk, Rapture talk, Thanking God this is the Last Friday, and big news about Barnes and Noble getting a $1Billion dollar bid. Yes, I know the word and dollar sign makes it redundant.

SO WHAT WILL WE DO???


Two choices here... 1. Go nuts and buy up as much water, ammo, and toilet paper as you can afford... Or screw it, credit won't matter if you're right... Go to Costco and max out those credit cards.  2. Realize that ever like 17 years, the world is supposed to end and know that we're cool.

Look it up, 1988, 1992, 1999, 2011, 2012, it just goes on and on.  But that's not the point, so in case you are worried about it... I'll give you some help.

ZOMBIE PROBLEMS:



Fear not, the CDC is hear to help. Click it and enjoy. Max Brooks is also available and after reading most of this book, I can say I think I am ready.

THE RAPTURE: 

What are you going to do about that?  Get right with the lord...

Or in the case of whatever I just put to the left, break glass.  I don't endorse that, I just needed something to fill some space.  Now I'll present a video or something for you.

NOW LAST FRIDAY!!! (or Final Friday)

Sorry, I know that's not the last thing you wanted to see before the Zombies come, the Rapture comes, or whatever else people believe in.

To make it up to you, I'll leave you with a clip of the best gun to take with you to a Zombie Hunt.  Have a good day and see how many followers you can get on this #LASTFRIDAY.  Take care and follow me by clicking the little bird that's been flying around.

Don't forget to click and ad.  If this is your last day, do something you've never done before... CLICK AN AD :)  Thanks.

I almost forgot.  If you didn't hear about the 7 year old kid handing out HEROINE in class... Get your read on... It's a strange world we live in.
