If you are using IE7, you may have noticed the text in reviews can disappear. I put in a workaround for that rendering bug today. It's the same workaround I put in for IE6 yesterday.Hopefully everyone can read the reviews now. Let me know if anything else looks weird.Thanks to all of you that reported the bug.
Our submit event form is up. Click here to submit reviews for Wisconsin events you've attended this year! Please note: We're still working on bits and pieces with the reviews, so keep an eye out for changes and additions.
Andy, Dan and I will be checking out haunts again this Friday. We'll also be dragging Johnny along again if he's not stuck working on Saturday morning. This week we'll be visiting some of the haunts along I-43 including the Sheboygan Jaycees: Dominion of Terror, The House of Bathory, Splatter Haus and Nightmare on Main. Last year was the first year I had been to the Dominion of Terror. They did a great job, especially during the heat we had that first weekend. Splatter Haus also did a great job as always and I can't wait to see what they've...

With October here, the changes have become more noticeable. The leaves turn colors, peoples moods change, the temperature changes, and all the buildings that sit dormant 11 months out of the year begin emitting sounds of horror and thrills as the occupants wake up for another season of scares. This is defineitely a great time of year. Today after work I am going to harvest gourds and pumpkins, that have been changing since spring when they were planted. It's always fun to see what the garden is hiding amongst all the leaves and vines. There are always a few surprises...

We will be at the Wisconsin Feargrounds located at the Waukesha Expo Center tonight. Come on out and say "Hi."This is a great time of the season to see this haunt because of the huge crowds they draw later in October once the word gets out. Dress warmly though, tonight is supposed to be chilly.
Dunkin' Donuts Pumpkin Lattes, muffins and donuts are now available along with their festive Fall Decorated Donuts. Unfortunately there aren't any Dunkin Donuts near me anymore, but I'm sure they're pretty tasty! Yes, I love pumpkin flavored food - can you tell?

The jack-o-lantern doughnuts will be available through the end of October and the pumpkin spice cake will be available through the end of November.Check out their web site to see their Halloween commercial!
Kevin Hash is an inspiring young lad at 13 years of age. He went before the Appleton common council and requested that trick-or-treat be held until 8pm instead of the original 7pm to accommodate changes in family lifestyles and daylight savings time. I hope more communities take this into account as well and extend their trick-or-treat times until 8pm when holding Halloween on a weekday. Most households now have both parents working and by the time they get home, feed the kids, get their costumes/make-up on, trick-or-treat is almost over. Let kids have this opportunity to be kids, get dressed...
