Ah Yes! It’s Halloween again!
by Cookster on May.03, 2009, under Costumes
Ugly witches, bed-sheeted ghosts, and ghoulish zombies are on the prowl again. There is a chill in the air and…wait a minute, wasn’t it in the low nineties today approaching 100 degrees by this coming weekend? It’s not Halloween? Oh! I know! There are lords and ladies, gypsies and pirates swinging swords and turkey legs. The Renaissance Festival is commencing! But of course… now that I think of it… Ren faire just ended about a month ago. Let’s see…the stormtroopers are out in force along with the X-men and Ghostbusters. It must be Comicon! No…hmmm…we already did that… or, are we going to do that? Now I know I saw Batman, Catwoman, Scarecrow, and the Joker. I guess that means it could only be one thing…

AZspidey and friends are really trying to get some mileage out of their Halloween costumes this year. (continue reading…)
You’re looking a little blue…

I know we are all connected, but most of you that are commenting on this blog look very much alike. When I sent out notices to my friends and family that I started a Wordpress blog, I also sent them the information on how to get their adorable little faces here too. But, alas, they all ignored me so I decided I needed to do a post about gravatars.
Actually, David was the one who figured out how to put an avatar picture up first. Man! I was surprised to see his picture with his comments the first time. I looked all over the registered profile page to see where one adds a picture for their avatar, but there was nothing. Wow, I thought this guy was really magic (most of the time he is), but then found out that he had just received an email about gravatars.
What is a gravatar?
“A gravatar, or globally recognized avatar, is quite simply an image that follows you from site to site appearing beside your name when you do things.” And of course, as far as I know, this is the only way to get a picture on your comments and it is a free service. Therefore, go to http://en.gravatar.com/ and sign up. You will be able to then go to any Wordpress blog that allows pictures and see your own unique self when you post a comment.
