I just learnt that Larry Harmon, alias Bozo the clown has passed away at the age of 83.
Bozo was originally created in 1946, Harmon wasn’t the original Bozo the Clown, but played the character in TV shows and in dozens of popular appearances.
The dress was an exotic laacha-choli designed by Ritu Kumar. It featured ethnic embroidery in orange, gold and green with an underlay of zari work depicting the true spirit of India.

This is pretty funny… A guy name “Tron Guy” (see how he made his TRON costume) has purchased a plane with a custom paint to match his favorite costume… pretty cool huh?
But could that become a trend?
I’d laugh pretty hard if I saw a car driving down the street with a custom “Papa Smurf” custom paint 
Rabid Star Wars fans will be happy to know that they’ll be able to get even more of a Force Fix on a weekly basis with a new Star Wars television series in the works. The television series will focus on lesser-known characters in the Star Wars cannon instead of the Skywalkers, Solos, and other familiar faces. This will make for a great opportunity to tell new stories without already-established outcomes that fans are well-educated on. New characters will bring an air of suspense to the Star Wars saga and paint the extended universe in a richer, and wider scope. Check here for more details on this new series.
With Grand Theft Auto 4 as the hottest game on the market right now, video games — no matter what your favorite choice of console may be — are bigger and gaining more media attention than ever. Appealing not just to kids, but perhaps especially adults, video games are one of the leading recreational activities in the world.
With their own network, G4 TV and several major conventions, this unique form of media and fandom has captured the attentions and joysticks of millions. While attending some of these conventions, many fans sport elaborate costumes of their favorite game characters. One of the most elaborate of these costumes would be the collector’s edition of the Xbox franchise Halo’s main character, Master Chief, complete with a full suit of futuristic armor and a two-piece helmet and mask.
Based on a true story, “21″ hit theatres this week, telling the story of six MIT students who turned the tables on Vegas casinos using math and probability to beat the odds. Heroes to everyone who has ever lost and lost big in Sin City or Atlantic City, these students leveled the playing field, turning the crap tables on an industry designed to profit from patrons’ losses. Check out the trailer for the film here.
Even if you can’t beat the system, cheer on the guys and gals who can by donning some casino costumes. Score the look of a high roller with dollar trimmed accessories, or sit on the side of your favorite Sin City score-settlers as Lady Luck, clad in elegant head to toe green. Make a statement with a One Armed Bandit costume. Spruce up a slot machine costume with bandit accessories like a robber’s mask and a sack of “money.”.
I am not going to try to say it in my own words when the team at Seusville.com has done an great job at it!
What better way to celebrate Dr. Seuss’s birthday than reading to a child? On the evening of March 2nd (Dr. Seuss’s birthday), Random House and the National Education Association (NEA) urge you to participate in the second annual Read Across America and read to a child.WHY CELEBRATE DR. SEUSS?Dr. Seuss epitomizes a love of children and learning. Also, his use of rhyme makes his books an effective tool for teaching young children the basic skills they need to be successful. When we celebrate Dr. Seuss and reading, we send a clear message to America’s children that reading is fun and important.
Sunday night, the Cadillac of music awards shows, the Grammys aired their 50th anniversary show, and by the time the dust had settled, Amy Winehouse walked away with five awards. Nominated in six categories, Winehouse’s wins included those in the categories of Best New Artist, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year for her smash hit, “Rehab.”
In case you’ve been living under a rock, Amy Winehouse is a throwback to soulful R&B/Motown-era singers like Tina Turner, Martha Reeves, and Gladys Knight — women with a darker edge of hardened reality to their voices. A refreshing change of pace from candy-coated pop tarts, Winehouse offers heavy ’60s powerhouse soul vocals in a modern punk package. A fairly troubled soul, Winehouse’s inner demons forced her into the place she “no, no, no”-ed, namely rehab. Hopefully, Amy Winehouse kicks her addictions and continues putting out solid albums.
