Here
at the Treetop
Lounge we take a totally biased and semi-informed view
on everything from pop culture to politics. The Treetop
Lounge is
for entertainment purposes only. Please don't take anything
you see here too seriously, because you should be trying to find the scariest costume imaginable to wear this Halloween.*
* And those Sarah Palin costumes are just flying off the rack, so act fast.
