I’m in a rut. I’m also without creative ideas.
I need ideas for a Halloween costume.
Or for those of you who don’t like to call it Halloween, “The day that everyone puts on costumes and hands out candy to make kids hyperactive” day.
Last year I was a Clown.
A rather cool clown.
The year before, well, I don’t remember. That’s what happens when you grow old.
I can tell you I was a cylon when I was five.
Once again, that’s what happens when you grow old.
So, if ya’ll are willing, throw me some suggestions.
Chocolate Chef?
Badly dressed single man?
Wait.. That wouldn’t be a costume for me…

I just don’t have a gray suit to wear…
Or I’d DO IT!

Forgive me for saying this, Chris, but while you do make a rather good clown, you’ve just earned a spot on my list of worst nightmare fodder. Eeek.
Of course, then again, I am not a Halloween kind of guy, and you can read about the tragic experiences that led me to that point in my blog entry, “ Why I don’t care for Halloween“.

Muhahhahahha.
I’d pull that face, and girls would look at me and say “please don’t ever do that to me again”.
I laughed.
As for your experiences, I feel for you

Clowns are the freakiest thing ever!
Comment by sherp — October 24, 2005 @ 7:31 am
please don’t ever be a clown again. *shivers in fear*
i think that you should go as an arcade game.

That may be the scariest clown costume I’ve ever seen. So scared right now. But you have a link to Ben Folds on your site, so all is forgiven.

Wow, that clown outfit was effective.
I vote for sticking with that one…you could give it an edge and carry a plastic knife… (isn’t everyone afraid of clowns?)

Be an undertaker. Carry around measuring tape for your “clients.”

be the guy from “say anything” (roy?).
wear a trenchcoat and hold a boombox over your head the whole night.
Comment by kat — October 25, 2005 @ 10:12 pm
kat means Lloyd Dobler.
I think that would be cool, but even cooler if you could get appropriate prosthetics, so you didn’t have to hold up a boombox all night.

I would like to see you dress up as Sean Connery for Halloween. It would be a great excuse to do your impression. I have great memories of your Sean Connery songs.

Sherp: Clowns are the source of animal ballons.. They can’t be *that* bad… I mean, Really..
Wendy: That was my Happy Clown Face! How would one go as an arcade game? The only costume I can think of would be.. Heavy…
kristen: You mean I don’t look like Happy Clown?
Susannah: I don’t have.. The.. Ahem.. Assests, and the parties I’m going to don’t want cross dressing
Panini: I was a HAPPY CLOWN! Happy Clowns don’t carry around knives! Well, most of the time they don’t…
April: I like the way you think.. I just have to find a good suit…
kat: I think this one’s a winner. You mean kind of like this?
I just don’t have a brown trenchcoat. I do have a black one.. hmm…
Albert: SHHHHHHHHH No need to bring up my days as a Sean Connery Lounge singer..
What would that costume look like anyways? I don’t have near enough chest hair to look like him..
Comment by Chris — October 26, 2005 @ 7:23 am
I think you ought to upload some Sean songs. Come on, you have to have a mic, just sing us something and post it here, we all want to hear it!!!
Comment by Brendo — October 26, 2005 @ 8:59 am
make the arcade game out of a refridgerator box.
less heavy.
it’s almost halloween, what are you going to be?
and please never show me your scary clown face!
Comment by wendy — October 26, 2005 @ 9:56 am
Sean Connery singing impressions?? Oh PLEASE share!!!
Comment by EA — October 26, 2005 @ 5:25 pm
Brendo: I know nothing of the “Sunday School Songs Sung By Sean” Best of Collection. So I couldn’t put it online.
Wendy: Hmm. Well, Now I go looking for a big cardboard box.
EA: I would know nothing of singing like Sean.
Nothing.

Oh, and perhaps I’ll go as a Carnie this year!
Comment by Chris — October 27, 2005 @ 6:43 am
I’ve been trying to talk people into the karate kid shower costume for weeks.
Am I the only person here who recognizes greatness?
Comment by H — October 27, 2005 @ 11:46 pm
Heather. How would a person make one those.
That just seems like too much work…..
Now Xena… Warrior Princess… That’s a costume I’d pay to see >:)

Wear normal attire with a sign around your neck that says “Nudist on Strike.”
I know that’s what I’m going to be.
Comment by sarah — October 28, 2005 @ 2:05 pm
Brendo: I don’t know what you are talking about
Sarah: Hmm.. Thats an idea…
