Hobo Stu

Hello everyone,

I need your help. I’m having trouble coming up with a good Halloween costume this year and I only have one more week to plan.

I thought about dressing as Sarah Palin, but Ned Bitters is already planning on going as her – at least, I think he is. Otherwise, I’m not really sure why he was trying on that dress and those glasses in his office the other day.

But, I digress …

I need a good costume idea. The last three years I’ve gone as a hobo, so I really need to change things up.

Here’s what’s new on HoboTrashcan.com this week:

Murphy’s Law – One Shot: Hulk Hogan’s Celebrity Championship Wrestling
If Joel Murphy was still 10 years old and this was still the height of Hulkamania, there is no doubt that he would tune in every week to Hulk Hogan’s Celebrity Championship Wrestling. Unfortunately, these days the Hulkster is best known for the gossip stories constantly surrounding his family. Still, a lingering sense of nostalgia convinced Murphy to give this show “One Shot.”

Outside of the In-Crowd – Kicking the habit (no this is not an inappropriate nun joke)
This week, on a very special Outside of the In-Crowd, Courtney Enlow admits that she has a painful addiction to a dangerous drug – over the counter nasal spray. Enlow, like many Americans, got hooked on the stuff to treat her allergy symptoms, but soon found that she couldn’t control her craving.

Overrated – Throwback uniforms
Many sports fans see throwback uniforms as a symbol of the good ol’ days and a way to remember the glory years of their favorite team. Ned Bitters sees throwback uniforms as an excuse for teams to make money. He also has some suggestions to make the whole “throwback” concept more authentic.

Guest Blog – Memoirs of a science class survivor
Movies and television usually depict high school science classes as a safe place where frogs are dissected and periodic tables are memorized. But one thing Hollywood fails to capture is the underlying danger awaiting the average high school student at every turn. This week, Tim Kelly sets the record straight.

Week 66 Spotlight: Party poopers

While Joel Murphy and Lars are used to being the life of the party wherever they go, their refusal to wear costumes to their respective office Halloween parties has them both labeled as “party poopers.” However, the dynamic duo refuses to budge – under no circumstances are they willing to cut loose and have fun at work.

However, Lars is planning on attending a friend’s Halloween party next Friday night – one with a Quentin Tarantino theme. While this sounds like an awesome idea in theory, in reality it’s tough to come up with an option besides a black suit and a skinny tie. So this week, Joel attempts to help Lars brainstorm ideas.

What are Lars’ best options? What advice does Joel have for people who are mixing food and alcohol? Who is better – Batman or Superman? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.
