I'm going geeky this year. I found an old "Star Trek: The Next Generation" uniform shirt in my garage, left over from my college prankster days. It fits just as poorly as it did when I bought it back in the '80s. By coincidence, I also have one of the old tricorder toys that still beeps and clicks (loads of fun for playing tricks on coworkers - "Your system locked up? Let me take a quick scan...Yep, its a magnetic anomaly. Have you handled any refrigerator magnets lately? The magnetism stuck to your fingers and is affecting the keyboard.").

Not to mention names but... this is a very painful subject for one of our frequent posters who shall remain nameless or he will have to tint the windows on his BMW an even darker shade...

He has not dressed for holloween since he was a child. It was all do to a trajic mistake.... he misheard when someone suggested he go as a "hobgoblin" and went as a "nobgobbler" instead... with amusing but disturbing results.... Even the mention of "hobgoblin" leaves a bad taste in his mouth (no pun intended).

so out of courtesy maybe we should just drop it huh?

The greatest Halloween parties used to be held in Isla Vista next to UC Santa Barbara. It is (was) and entire city of college students and recent dropouts. Everyone just walks the streets on halloween and the party was fluid and fun.

My buddy (who works in a clean room for the govt. now) dressed up as a bong. A working bong. People were taking hits off him while he walked down the street...... ahhh youth is wasted on the young.

Considering I have a 5 and 7 yr old (and I'm just a big kid too), I'll be dressing up. I'll be the Grim Reaper with skeleton mask, black cape and hood, skeleton hands and scythe and walking with Annakin Skywalker, a Princess and a Greek Goddess.

Gofaster, I'm envious that you can fit into something from the 80's! 36 hit me this year and all of a sudden it's like the weight is packing on from out of nowhere while the hair decides to take off on vacation or something.

Well it's that time again...time to break out the ol' JASON MASK.

I hand out the candy, and the kids are shaking. I never have trouble with the neighbor kids after Halloween!!

I have to say, that mask scares me too!

I'll be in Madison and partying as ... Harry Caray!

I have the huge, thick rectangular glasses, white haired wig, a blazer, a ruffled shirft and a funny looking tie. BUT its all in the delivery of classic lines from SNL and Will Ferrell.

"Hey, if you were a hotdog and you were starving, would ya eat yerself? I know I would, first I'd douse myself in relish and brown mustard, then the ketchup, hell I'd be delicious!" All the while shaking my head and looking confused... lol

The way to style it at a Halloween party...

Instead of throwing on some rubber mask or painting your face up to the point where yer unrecogizable and basically cannot be taken seriously by any girls ya wanna chat up, do this...

Get yerself a nice crisp retro-ish suit, grab one of those old Radioshack type white single earpeice headphone things pre-Walkman,.. and have it coming out yer shirt collar and into your ear.

What are you? Kennedy's bodyguard.

Lazy, lame, yes kinda. But at least you aren't gettin' greese paint all over your beer. And it's better to look good than to feel good. You know it babe.
