67 Days!

So, on a much brighter note from yesterday, the Aus $ has risen to 67c. Again, going up much slower then we had previously hoped.

Today in America it is Halloween. So happy Halloween to everyone. The reason I mention this is, that a new competition is beginning. The person to get them ALL correct, wins. So, to start off, the prize is a Ipod nano generation 1 silicon cover. If you want it, answer the following questions correctly:

1. What is the most prominent Halloween decoration?
2. What is Halloween also known as in some places?
3. Name 4 Halloween costumes that are stereotypical to this holiday.
4. What 2 colours do you associate Halloween with? There is a correct answer to this question.

Good luck to you all, this competition only lasts until midnight tomorrow night. So get your answers in fast!

The States of America competition finishes tonight at midnight, so this is your last chance to get your answers in.

Today's review is of the Fremont Troll:

The Fremont troll has been lurking under the north end of the Aurora bridge since 1990. He was sculpted by four Seattle area artists -- Steve Badanes, Will Martin, Donna Walter and Ross Whitehead -- for the Fremont Arts Council. The head-and-shoulders sculpture is 18-ft. tall.
The shaggy haired troll glares southward with his shiny metal eye -- a hubcap? In his left hand, he crushes an old style Volkswagen beetle (which originally contained a time capsule of Elvis memorabilia; removed after the car was vandalized and the California license plate was stolen). There are plenty of places to pose, and interaction with the troll is encouraged.""

This totally fits with today's Halloween theme.

Happy Halloween (in America)

Until Tomorrow,

Amanda
