My good friend Alaina sent me a link to Robert Lee Morris's "Andy Warhol Collection" and these pieces are absolutely fabulous. Available at Bloomingdale's, each piece is inscribed with one of the artist’s famous sayings. While it's a little out of my price range right now, the holidays are coming soon and my wish list just exploded.
Skull Station Sterling Silver Chain Necklace - $600.00
Sterling Silver Skull Bracelet - $495.00
Sterling Silver Skull Pendant Chain Necklace - $250.00
Sterling Silver Skull Ring - $195.00

Bacon Lampshade
Even I have to give this a WTF. 
I hope someone recovered that bacon and gave it a proper cooking otherwise it's just a waste of good bacon.
UPDATE (Nov.1st): Ok, SeriousEats dug up more info on this from Flickr. You can see the full set of pictures here.

Father's Piglets & Vanilla Bourbon Bacon
I came across Father's Country Hams while browsing through a certain Home Shopping Network site. They call themselves "Kentucky's Finest Eating" and seriously, they've got some gourmet bacon that I just haven't seen anywhere else. If you don't happen to live in Kentucky, they do deliver via UPS.
This just looks scrumptous. Father's Piglets "The Ultimate Bacon Snack" is tasty bits of dry cured bacon that has been hand cooked with brown sugar and chopped pecans and baked until they are golden brown. Eat them right out of the bag! Could these be made at home? Probably, but I'm too lazy and these don't really break the bank.
Alright, now are you ready for this? How about some Father's Country Vanilla Bourbon Bacon! Three great things - Bourbon, Vanilla, and Bacon! Only $7.50 a pound.
Father's Blueberry Cinnamon Bacon is dry-cured,smoked with real hickory and hand-rubbed with specially created blueberry-cinammon rub. 
Father's Peach Cinnamon Bacon has the flavor of fresh peaches, hickory smoke and a glaze of brown sugar.
Wow. I've yet to order bacon over the internet but I think this is gonna get me to do it. They also have lots of other flavored bacon, in addition to regular bacon flavored bacon, if you're into that sort of thing.

Skulls at Torrid.com
Torrid.com is one of the very few places that have cool clothes for plus size women, like me. They always have great skull clothing but they also have fabulous shoes and accessories. I've picked out a few of my favorites but there's no way I could fit everything I like in one post.
Black Sadie Skull Faux Sheepskin Sherpa Boot - $39.00. I'm pretty sure these are coming home with me very soon.
Pink and Burgundy Skull Scarf - $12.00. A pretty break from the usual black and white.
Tripp Royal Bones Skull Pocket Skinny-Leg Jeans - $48.00. Skinny girls can find skull jeans in lots of places but these are one of the few that I've seen in women's sizes 12-26!
Beige Canvas Dia de los Muertos Hinge Wallet - $18.00. How awesome is this Sugar Skull Wallet?

Black Patent Skull Cutout Flat - $26.00. These are so perfect, with the subtle skull cutout at the front, I could wear these to the office without raising any eyebrows.
Silver and Black Enamel Skull Bracelet- $12.00. Plus size or not, this super cute bracelet would look nice on anyone.

Black Skull Argyle Cardigan - $48.00. You can keep it Klassy with this skull sweater. Rockin' yet refined.
Pink & Black Skull Snowflake Brief - Sale: $6.99. Every woman should have some fancy skull underwear.

Bacon Man with a Bacon Weave Face
I know nothing about this picture but it's fascinating. 
I found this pic on miss Karen's Flickr photostream with only the cryptic tagline, "Made from 30 pounds of bacon by Diva and Steve". I'm afraid I am not content with this explanation and I need more information.
-Did it really take 30lbs of bacon to put this together?
-How many drinks did it take to come up with this idea?
-How is the bacon attached to the frame?
-Did you eat it when you were done?
-Are there any more pictures? (I want to see the bottom half!)
UPDATE: Bacon Today posted a lot more info and pictures about Bacon Man and Baconfest 2008. Go check it out!
