Wednesday's P.M. Hot Clicks: Dogs in Halloween Costumes /

Dogs in Costume

Halloween Dog Parades

The best thing about Halloween is half-naked girls dogs in costumes. Lucky for us, photographers captured all the action at the annual Tompkins Square Halloween Dog Parade in Manhattan and the Growl-a ween Parade in Old Town in Pasadena. My favorites are the bikini (No. 3), Woof of Wall Street (No. 14) and Mailman (No. 25). Karl Malone would be proud.

Speaking of Costumes

Have you seen little Mike Ditka?

Tom Brady is Ready for NBA Season

Tom Brady on Facebook has become as interesting as his wife on Instagram (maybe not, actually). To celebrate the start of the NBA season, the Patriots QB posted this photo of himself as a 12-year-old Celtics fan. I have no idea what (besides the headband) is photoshopped and I don't really care.

This Guy Deserves a Royals Win

Busted Coverage has a great interview with the man pictured in this photo and the sad story about how he lost his arm (Spoiler: it was over a girl he's no longer with).

Darlene Love is the Best

Every year since 1986, Darlene Love has performed her 1963 girl group classic Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) on the last episode of Late Show With David Letterman before Christmas. She just announced that she'll retire the song after this year's performance. Also of note: Love played Roger Murtaugh's wife in the Lethal Weapon movies.
