Win the Green Honet's Black Beauty From Carl's Jr.

As you may know, I think the 1966 TV series Batmobile is the ultimate collectible. Not just a toy version, but the actual running automobile. But if I can't get Batman's famous car at the moment and had a chance to pick up The Green Hornet's rolling arsenal, I wouldn't turn it down.

So I dragged my wife over to Carl's Jr. the other day, well, I didn't exactly drag her, she came on her own free will. All I had to say was, I'd like to get a shot at winning The Green Hornet's car, The Black Beauty, and she was all about it.

If you buy a large drink, you will receive a cup with a special code for a chance to win The Black Beauty. Then all you do is go over to http://www.facebook.com/carlsjr and enter the special code. I won't know if I won until sometime next year, but it would be too cool to win, wouldn't it?

My Super Hero Themed 40th Birthday Party.

 I have been meaning to post pictures from my 40th birthday party and have finally got to it. Thanks to my wonderful non-geek, but super cool wife for putting the party all together. The cool thing is it was a comic book super hero themed birthday costume party.

My wife and I were the The Green Hornet and Kato. I figured if Seth Rogen can be The Green Hornet so could I. I do have a replica of the mask Van Williams wore on the Green Hornet TV series, but the one I wore was the Green Hornet costume that came out this year to promote the new movie.

I have always had an interest in Cosplay (check out Derf's Domain, he interviews the most popular Cosplayer's in the business) but have never really pursued my interest in that. I do believe I have really picked up the bug for that and will be looking into putting together some cool costumes. The party was a great way to experience it first hand.




Green Hornet, Wolverine, and SG

 I was really pleased how the party turned out and for everyone really getting into it. I can't believe I didn't think of doing this before. I think I need to be doing  this every year from now one. Check out the pics below for the great time had by all.

 Isn't dressing up as your favorite comic book characters the best. Aside form collecting comic books and related toys of course.
