Bwog kicks off Halloween early this year with a special guide to two of the neighborhood’s best costume purveyors, Ricky’s and Possibilities @ Columbia. You can divide the world in two camps: Those who love Halloween and those who hate it. Bwog falls into the former camp and we hope you do too. But we […]

Oh what do you know, this Saturday regrettable-costume emporium Ricky’s opened. And just in time for you to buy something special for Halloween. This afternoon, Bwog wandered inside the rabbit hole. Join us, as we try to make sense of this thing.
Rumors saying as much have been swirling around this very blog (as well as Spec) for a month or so, but Bwog just spoke with a clerk at Kim’s who confirmed the terrible news: When Kim’s closes, a Ricky’s Cosmetics will open in its place. You might be familiar with the products of Ricky’s if […]

How many drag queens did you see last night? If the answer wasn’t well over 3,000, then you weren’t at the Halloween Parade in Greenwich Village. The Avenue of the Americas was packed from Spring to 21st, not only with your traditional devils, witches and Teletubbies, but also Popes with blinking LED crosses, Transformers and […]
Bwog freelancer Kate Linthicum followed the Potluck House kids north last night. What do you get when 40 rambunctious college students descend on a notorious Bronx park for a moonlit drum circle? The NYPD, apparently. The costumed revelers at last night’s “Hotluck” Halloween party learned that the hard way when police swooped down on their […]
Sachs talks to some farmer who “set the world on fire.” Columbia beats down the merchants who “slaughtered Hofstra.” Freshman fears being “Attack[ed]. Devour[ed].” What does $20,000 for Community Impact mean? “student life…will…end.” Fittingly, a review discussing the Saw series ends with “There will be more blood.”
By now, reader, you have probably become accustomed to Bwog hosting contests, what with the photography and photoshop contests, as well as the current “become an editor” contest. Well, the next contest is our Halloween Contest, where you must dress up in costume, photograph yourself, and send it to us before midnight of All Hallow’s […]
Blue Java never ceases to amaze (and apparently misspell). Ingredients for a certain “Halloween Rice Chrispy Bar” included sprinkles, butter, Halloween, and a clever avoidance of copyright infringement… Thanks to Todd Spitz and Alex Weinberg for the tip!
As we perused the calendar of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine this morning, as is our wont, we came across the usual upcoming list of off-the-beaten-trail artistic and religious events. We know the Cathedral is always a little quirky, but if O’Reilly catches onto this stuff, we’ll go from “left-wing jihadis” to “debauched […]
