Halloween Costumes

OK, I'm not dressing up for Halloween, but a quick look at some costume sites and I'm impressed with some of the cartoon related costumes:

Hulk costumes are pretty standard, but an inflatable one? Nice!

I was all set to mock a female Robin, but apparently there was one. Go figure.

And finally, at $799.99, this Superman outfit is expensive, but WOW!

Weird Toy Stuff

OK, I’ve pretty much bought everything for the kids for Christmas, but I’m still looking for a few little things to round it all out.

In my shopping I’ve found some weird stuff:

Star Wars Galactic Figures Stocking Stuffers

“I find your lack of Christmas spirit disturbing.”

And this isn’t in itself an odd toy…

…but the Amazon seller struck me as odd…

Can’t read it? Here’s a close-up:

Just the thing for baby; a heavily armed hellspawn. Awww…

OK, back to work.

They Like You! They Really Like You!

Congrats to my favorite business blogger, Anita Campbell, for being chosen as Internet Marketing Report‘s Marketer of the Week!

Julie Power also interviews Anita:

JP – What is the one thing that a small business MUST have online to succeed?

AC – Perseverance. Many small businesses give up too soon. It’s easy to go out of business when you hit a rough patch, because the alternative — facing down the challenges — is so ugly and unpleasant.

Perseverance is especially important online, because it takes months (being wildly optimistic) or years to draw significant traffic and build an online brand today. There’s so much more competition on the Web.

So you have to be in it for the long haul – have a long term plan and work your plan everyday, even if sometimes you question whether you are making progress.

It’s stuff like that that keeps Small Business Trends at the top of my feed reader.

(BTW, Julie, did you know you’re a superhero?)
