The popularity of Halloween is increasing all the time. Most Western countries celebrate it and it’s now becoming popular in Australia.

Trick Or Treat

Halloween is the time of the year when you and your children can have lots of fun. First of all the children get ready with their exciting costumes and ghoulish make-up, then the parents prepare special treats for them when they come knocking on the door shouting “Trick Or Treat”.

So Why Is It Called Halloween

How To Outfit Yourself As A Mermaid This Halloween
August 1, 2006

Mermaids are enchanting. Some legends have the mermaid turning into a human when they are out of the water. Others require that the mermaid do something special or magical before they become human. Either way, the concept of something that is a cross between a human and a sea creature is an intriguing one.

Countless movies have been made with mermaids as the subject and they span a variety of themes. A mermaid costume is a popular choice for adults and children alike. There are some fabulous costumes that you can rent or even some intriguing patterns to make yourself. You can model the look after your own idea of what a mermaid should look like or after a popular movie character. It’s up to you.

Have You Tried Scrapbooking Software Yet?
July 3, 2006

Have you considered using scrapbooking software but are hesitant to try? I know I was. I put off my purchase for quite a while but was pleasantly surprised when I recently bought Scrapbook Factory Deluxe. This program has greatly exceeded my expectations and really comes with many more features than just the ability to create scrapbook layouts.

June 30, 2006

Wildstorming is the radical cousin of traditional brainstorming, as it turns the process upside-down and inside-out, where strange and bizarre concepts are the rule.

During a wildstorm session, team members suggest absolutely crazy solutions to the core issue which is being examined. Wildstorms are a great place to ponder ideas that are true overkill or prohibitively expensive. Wildstorm answers can deny physics and logic; they can be weird, fanciful, or even illegal. In fact, they can be impossible! The main rule for a successful wildstorm is that the ideas should be anything but practical.

The Payoff?

Joy of Collecting Autographed Books
June 12, 2006

There is something about an autograph that excites me to no end.

It’s almost like holding life pulse of the person who created that signature with his or her own hand.

When I look at the glorious imperfections of a signature I immediately feel a strange connection between the hand that created that signal and myself.

It is almost like a bridge is erected instantly between the past and the present and something moves across.

The feeling is especially strong if the signature belongs to the author of the book that I’m holding in my hands.
