The Super Bowl is around the corner in just a couple days. One of the biggest days of the year for gatherings involving mass consumption of food (perhaps second only to Thanksgiving), if you haven’t gotten a spread together yet, it’s not too late.
Throw together an impromptu gathering with some good food and great costumes to make things festive. Whether or not you’re rooting for the New England Patriots or the New York Giants to win, there’s a costume to suit everyone.

When i was a kid, i really enjoyed watching Knight Rider, yeah that was a hot show for kids in the 80s. What kid wouldn’t want to drive a car that talks to you, come and get you, through you out by the roof and is super sharp looking…
Well if you are ready to believe it, Knight Rider will be back on television as early as 2008! David Hasselhoff seems to be in negotiations to take on the role again, i guess he is still in pretty good shape…when he is not drinking. The plan is to make a 2 hour long movie to introduce the television show for 08/09.
K.I.T.T. has been upgraded to a Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR although i wished they went for a Corvette…but wahtever, it won’t make me not watch the series anyway! I am not really what the rest of the cast will up being, and in a way, who cares. As long as Hasselhof is in there, I don’t really care about the others. Alright, so now, let’s think about costumes because that’s what matters here on CostumZee!

As American as apple pie and Chevrolet, the Super Bowl is one of the most-watched spectacles on television each year. Even if you’re not a football fan, there’s always the commercials to look forward to with the men and women of Madison Avenue knocking themselves out to come up with memorable minute-long spots vying for the eye of discriminating Super Bowl viewers.
And if that doesn’t get you, the Super Bowl is yet another excuse to party your tail gate off! If hosting your own Super Bowl party, make it something even more festive in addition to pizza, chip, dip, and cold brewskis. Deck yourself out in your favorite team’s colors and jerseys. And if you’re favorite team doesn’t make it to the Super Bowl, that’s all the more reason to pick up some football-flavored costumes.

Recently released on DVD, “Sesame Street: Old School” collects the memories of Generation X-ers who grew up with the beloved characters of Jim Henson and gives the current crop of kids a taste of what our world was like way back when.
Bridging the gap between nostalgia and a current favorite, Sesame Street has been popular with children of all ages for over 30 years. Many of the kids who grew up watching Sesame Street now have children of their own. And even those of us without kids sometimes get a hankering to reacquaint ourselves with our favorite monsters that pre-dated the hyper-caffinated Elmo.
