| 1230 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Guess I should have gotten on board sooner and maybe I could have earned back a bit of my childhood by writing about it. Ah well, I probably couldn't get my son to keep that mask on his face anyway. | Sep 10, 2014 |  | |
| 1233 | Article | Vaporman87 | The thing about those old masks was that they were sooo uncomfortable, and you were dripping sweat inside them. It was like a sauna for your face shaped like Yoda. | Halloween Hallelujah! | Sep 11, 2014 | |
| 1235 | Article | Fulton4V | I had many of the old Ben Cooper costumes growing up and remember most the Hulk and Scooby doo ones I had. They were all just random pictures of the characters on the vinyl suit and then a mask with the face of the character but they were really cool to me. I liked those old costumes. | Halloween Hallelujah! | Sep 11, 2014 | |
| 1236 | Article | Vaporman87 | The story of the Ben Cooper company is an interesting one: http://www.slate.com/articles/life/culturebox/2013/10/ben_cooper_costumes_how_the_popular_plastic_outfits_reinvented_halloween.html | Halloween Hallelujah! | Sep 11, 2014 | |
| 1247 | Article | NLogan | Hoju Koolander I love the personal pictures. To me that is what Halloween is all about. Can't beat the nostalgia level of some of those old Ben Cooper and Collegeville costumes. As you know my brother was also Yoda back in the day. Long live cellophane windowed boxes, rubber bands that broke on your sweaty face mask, and vinyl smocks... well the memories of them anyways. | Halloween Hallelujah! | Sep 16, 2014 | |
| 1264 | Article | NLogan | "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" | Halloween Hallelujah! | Sep 17, 2014 | |
| 1389 | Article | NLogan | When I was a kid sometimes we would go over to my uncle's house. He would make homemade french fries in a frier. Nice and greasy hot. He had these leather cases and inside were hundreds of cassette tapes. We turned off most of the lights and sat on the couch eating fries while we listened to the original radio productions of the Shadow! I still remember the sound of that laugh echoing in the dark. | Halloween Hallelujah! | Oct 07, 2014 | |
| 1750 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @NLogan I also ate french fries while listening to The Shadow, but not fancy homemmade style, that's sounds great. I had to settle for McDonald's while sitting in my Dad's car listening to the broadcasts over the radio. Although I did eventually buy a set of cassettes that showcased 2 episodes from each actor to play The Shadow over the years. | Halloween Hallelujah! | Jan 02, 2015 | |
| 1218 | Article | Vaporman87 | LOL. This was part refresher course and part revelation for me. I suppose a great many of us didn't quite realize how much like Screech we really were (though perhaps without the same level of flair). It is true that the show revolved around Zack's exploits, but it didn't start out that way did it? I was thinking initially the creators were going to focus more on the faculty than the students, and then that changed as it was developed. Either way, they all had flaws that played into the plots of the episodes. Yeah, Slater was likely the most levelheaded of the bunch. And he probably ended up being the character that everyone really liked the best (even though they might not admit it). | Dazed By The Bell | Sep 10, 2014 | |
| 1221 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Yeah, the "prequel" show, "Good Morning, Miss Bliss" had a teacher as the protagonist and the kids as side characters. I guess the producers figured Mark-Paul Gosselar had more charisma than Hayley "Parent Trap" Mills and they were right! | Dazed By The Bell | Sep 10, 2014 | |
