want: Stretch Bags are made from 100% colorful advertising campaign billboards. The minimal 2-D design stretches into 3-D to form the biggest bag with the smallest amount of waste.

Chromeography is a lovely tumblr blog “in praise of the chrome logos and lettering affixed to vintage automobiles and electric appliances — those unsung metal emblems and badges that are overlooked, forgotten, damaged, lost to time or the dump.”

CHARMED: It’s the Most Wonderul Time of the Year

“What are you going to be for Halloween this year?”

“Oh, I was thinking maybe a Lichtenstein painting.”

“…”

Oh MAN, this is awesome. I’d totally do something like this if I wasn’t anti-facepaint.

Oh me too - would do this and am semi-anti-facepaint. This is amazing.

Cocktail countdown to Halloween-Bloody Brain Shooters

Channel your inner mad scientist with this Bloody Brain Shooter. Add chilled vodka and lime juice to a shot glass, then use a straw to drip Irish cream into the glass. The acidic lime juice will cause the Irish cream to curdle, creating realistic strands of “brain.”

Ingredients:

1 1/4 oz. strawberry vodka such as Stoli
1/8 oz. Rose’s lime juice
3/4 oz. Bailey’s Irish Cream
Splash of grenadine

Preparation:

Chill vodka for better smoothness. Add vodka and lime juice to a shaker, shake and strain into a shot glass. Using a straw, dip some Bailey’s Irish Cream into the shot. Once you submerge the straw into the Bailey’s put your finger on top of the straw to hold the Bailey’s in the straw. Dip the straw tip into the vodka and slowly release your top finger. The Bailey’s will curdle a little bit due to the lime juice and you should be able to make strands of Bailey’s.

Repeat the straw/Bailey’s process to build a “brain” in the shot glass. Add a splash of grenadine to the concoction to add the ‘blood’ to the mix. Down the hatch as a shot.

Haunted Austin Provides Halloween Fun

“Austin, TX - Halloween is just around the corner and many people are looking for a good scare. Legend has it that ghosts haunt many Capital City hit spots including the Governor’s Mansion and the Driskill Hotel .

Located at the corner of Sixth Street and Brazos, the Driskill has a few ghosts haunting its halls.

Legend has it that a young girl fell to her death in the hotel. Some say children’s laughter can be heard coming from the bottom of the stairs.

Another story says a woman hung herself after her fiancee called off their wedding. Some have seen her walking the halls, wearing a wedding dress.

Other say they’ve seen the ghost of Col. Peter Lawless, a Confederate soldier who lived at the Driskill from 1886 until his death in 1917.

According to the Austin ghost tours Web site , staffers see Col. Lawless as they perform mundane tasks like shampooing the carpet. They’ll get the sensation that someone’s watching them.

The Web site says the staffers will then see Lawless peer at them, glance at his pocket watch, turn and walk through a wall or closed door…”
