Last year, to celebrate Halloween, I wrote up blogs on pumpkin templates and animal Halloween costumes.  Well, a year has passed and…sure…I’d love to do up some fresh takes on this season.  But, I just can’t resist a good pumpkin OR pets all dressed up.  So, I thought, why not do a best of 2009 Halloween list.  Except, I’ve expanded the categories.  Huffingtonpost has been running loads of good Halloween lists, so if you get a moment, go and check those out…I’ve snagged many pics from that site.  I wholeheartedly recommend their collection of ‘best geeky’ costumes.  It’s a treasure trove.

105.  Best of Halloween List

–Best Pumpkin Template:  By a liberal mile, the best new addition to Halloween-squash  awesomeness is this Rachel Maddow pumpkin stencil.

–Funniest Costume (Female):  This 80’s Sitcom Mom as made available on 80stees.com   Proves that raising kids in the eighties is hard, but HILARIOUS!

–Best baby costume (warm weather climate):  Nacho Libre!

–Best baby costume (cold weather): Luke Skywalker inside a dead ton-ton

–Best Pet (Non-Dog Category) Costume–This cat…just look at that aggravated expression.  Priceless.

–Best Dog Costume–Redneck boxer…he looks like he’s right off of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour.

–Best Dog Costume (Breed Appropriate)–It’s a French Bulldog as a Gondolier, get it?!  Oh wait…Venice is in Italy…whatever–close enough.

–Most and Best Effort:  Coolest Transformers costume ever.  And I don’t even LIKE Transformers.

Well, that’s all for now.  Happy Halloween, dear readers.  Back to regularly geekitude next month.
