Just about every website out ther is doing something for Halloween today, like changing their color scheme or adding special content. We at the Syndicate are staunch conformists, so here goes!

OOOHHH... SCARY... HALLOWEEEEEENNN...

That's it. Whoopee.

When most people say they are really hungry, they say they could eat a horse. What do vegetarians say? I could eat a really large carrot? Maybe watermelon. Watermelons are big.

Ever wanted to be a letter of the alphabet? I'd love to hear which one and why. I'd be the letter "R" because he makes vowels sound different when he stands next to them. Contact Us with your choice.

Imagine a world where right and left didn't exist. Now, imagine that you take control of Bob Dole's body and spotaneously create right and left in 1996. Your idea revolutionizes giving directions for the voting community. Congratulations, Mr. President!

I'm sick and tired of all these pathetically small groups of superhero friends. Sure, the Fantastic Four have might unmatched by any mortal, and yes, the Fabulous Five would be an improvement, but where are the Tumultuous Twenty-Six? The Stupendous Seventy-Two? The Nefarious Nine-Hundred-and-Forty-Three? I'd like to see any supervillain who could stand up against a few hundred flailing superheros. That'll be the day.

What a great invention the balloon is. I don't mean like hot air balloons or what have you, I mean straight rubber balloons. Especially red ones. And as for long twistable sculptable balloons, don't even get me started!

If someone were to invent carbonated gravy and sold it at retail stores, would anyone buy it? I know I sure would! That would give Thanksgiving dinner a little kick in the pants.

How do you describe a color to someone who's color blind? Can you really describe "green" without using another color to compare it to? Think about it.

I had a dream last night that involved finding out how Freddy from Scooby Doo and George Jetson were related on a family tree. In the end they turned out to be "Co-Trans-First Cousins Thrice Removed."

If you were to build a bathtub big enough, the planet Jupiter would float in it. That is, if it were filled with water. Except Jupiter is a gas giant, so who knows what would happen if you actually did it... Probably something dealing with the violent end of the universe, though.

Happy Anniversary Casey! That's right, I, Chris Clark (Syndicate Co-Creator) am celebrating my two month anniversary with mi tesora. If you're in the mood for a little romance, check out my honeydrippings in the Sonnet I wrote to my Casey.

(Advertising Tip #74) When you find a single tip for a skill, such as this one, number it with a sizable number. That way people think you have that many tips, if not more. Doesn't it seem like I have at least 73 other tips in advertising? I thought so.

I hope you like this new little addition, the "NEWSREEL." This just shows whatever passing moronic thoughts we may have had during the course of the date shown. Keep watching and you'll probably find something that's crossed your mind once or twice.
