The Wodka vodka company recently unveiled its new holiday advertising campaign in NYC, which immediately drew outcries by the Anti-Defamation League for being "crude and offensive." Score another for the PC police who obviously have no sense of humor.

More Halloween goodness

  As clever as the illegal alien costume (Halloween goodness) is, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the  twisted Headless Ted Williams costume being sported about in the Hub City. If you recall, when the former USMC fighter pilot and "Greatest  Hitter of All-time" passed away back in 2002, his family had his body cryogenically frozen in hopes of someday resurrecting him  - or somehow making a buck off his DNA. Shortly after receiving his remains for freezing, employees at Alcor, the cryonics company hosting the body, mistakenly lopped of his cranium and froze the body and head separately.

Last month a former employee of Alcor published "Frozen: My Journey into the World of Cryonics, Deception, and Death",  chronicling among other macabre stuff the sad fate of Ted's head. According to author Larry Johnson, employees posed for pictures with the head and ended up dropping it on more than one occasion. Alcor used tuna cans as pedestals for their frozen heads, and at one point when a tuna can became stuck to Williams' noggin, a fellow employee:

"...grabbed a monkey wrench, heaved a mighty swing, missing the tuna can completely but hitting the head dead center," Johnson wrote. "Tiny pieces of frozen head sprayed around the room."

You just can't make this crap up. Happy Halloween!

Halloween goodness

Last year we took a look at one of the all-time favorite unaffordable Halloween costumes not available, the Gorn (Inflation Hits Home this Halloween). This Halloween, a company called Forum Novelties, Inc. has come up with a costume that is guaranteed to be the rave at your next holiday party - and costs just a fraction of that penis-reduction surgery you've been putting off for so long. For 40 bucks, the "Illegal Alien Costume" comes with an orange jumpsuit, an alien mask, and a green card - Rosetta Stone CD's not included. Naturally, this most un-PC product has caused a lot of liberal outrage, with immigrant advocate groups calling on Target and other online retailers to drop the "offensive" costume from their catalogues...

If you've already made plans to grace your loved ones with the Obama Chia (From the YGBSM Dept....) this Chistmas, you might want to consider this little old-time favorite to complement your gift-giving goodness. According to the Sock Obama Co. this exclusive offering " is  'Change You Can Believe In' and is inspiring millions of stuffed animal lovers  around the world." The company also offers a "Sock Biden" - without the non-PC connotations of the Obama sock monkey model...

I wanted to find something different to wear this Halloween, and set my sights on finding a costume that would bring a smile to my kids' faces. The Gorn was always one of my favorite villains, who many of you remember was featured in the old Star Trek episode "Arena". The Gorn was Kirk's opponent in what has to be the worst TV fight ever, featuring styrofoam boulders and Kirk's trademark double-fisted karate chops.

 

Although not the fastest moving creature in the galaxy, the Gorn had a tremendous strength advantage over Kirk, and despite his reptilian ways, was a pretty smart dude to boot.  He misses his chance early on in the clip below, when he has Kirk in an embrace and fails to just bite his head off and end it all. In the end Kirk wins, spares the Gorn's life and saves all of humanity. The episode goes down in history as one of the hokiest ever with the Gorn's Lost in Space type costume -- the perfect costume to stand out at a Halloween party!

 

(You can watch Kirk outsmart his foe in the gripping ending here!)

 

Unfortunately, Gorn costumes don't come cheap. Estimated value? $20,000-$30,000 according to Uncle Odie's Collectibles, one of the few sites that had any info on this unique prop. A little out of my price range, so I guess it's back to wearing my trusty old "Tor", a mask inspired by former pro wrestler and B-movie actor Tor Johnson (Plan 9 from Outer Space and Night of the Ghouls, among others). Tor's real mug stood the test of every horror movie he was ever in! $35 at the Horror Dome!
