a Halloween costume for someone who doesn't want to spend too long thinking of costumes...

...and doesn't care much about the end result anyway.




Yes, that's right, I'm a cereal killer. (I'll probably carry it in, get chuckles for the first few minutes if I'm lucky, and then put it down and not care about it for the rest of the party. Not exactly a crowd that will care much about costumes anyway, I'd wager.)

Made the knife out of foil and scotch tape, with a note card for structural integrity, in about 5 minutes. Found the cereal in the cabinet, which is probably rather stale anyway, as we don't eat cereal much.

i was a cereal killer for purim (or was it halloween?) one year! i strung cereal boxes together, with a similar foil knife idea. the funny thing is, when i first saw your picture, i thought you had put wings on the box to turn it into a puffin!

I got quite a bunch of accolades this year for dressing up as a Republican at a Halloween party last night. The setup was actually very simple - suit, tie (with the GOP elephant all over it), pro-America pins (my favorite being the one that actually said "Proud to be an American"), and giant wads of fake money falling out of every pocket and sleeve. That, my friend, is a class act that is very easy to set up. The hardest part will be finding an appropriately patriotic tie, but I'm sure you can figure that one out.

I was Beaker and Wes was Bunsen. It was awesome. I bought a Don King wig and sprayed it orange. Faboo.

Nice!

Hey, you still up for a GMatSCoD concert on Sunday? (I'm not sure if I am, especially with the late Eagles game, but I've got TiVo and concerts are fun and anyway I've not decided yet...)
