Hell toupé

It’s Halloween soon, and if you’re properly dedicated to celebratin­g you’ll wear a costume, with a wig. And that way, you’ll create a super realistic house of horrors in your own home, because you’ll almost definitely bring nits into it. Nurse Cherie Sexton says: “We have a lot of people going into stores right now, trying on masks, costumes and wigs.

“And a lot of people don’t give much thought to the fact that several people could’ve tried it on before them.” Gritchy*.

* As grim as it is itchy.

Mee-how?

Although it looks like another Halloween– related item, this photo – of a headless, legless cat with a tail, which wags – is actually a “therapy robot”. It provides (spooky) company, but with none of the demands of having a real pet. It’s called Qoobo, and it could also provide a sliver of comfort to the poorest, most unfortunat­e souls in the world, ie people who are allergic to cats.
