My costume will be minimalist as usual, but I think it will be very cool. But I believe that's all I will say until I have pictorial evidence.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
thinks Halloween in the Castro might need to be next on the list
Totally up for that next year...never too early to plan. (ETA: or spell)
Wanna try to see all of the Castro this year?
Hey, I bet I saw more of it than you did.
I may not remember it, but still.
There's a party I'm invited to (I think) but I am SO LAME about Halloween, and no, it's not from being jaded from Salem MA living... I have been like this for a while. I just don't feel excited or inspired to dress up and I feel uncreative and stupid and stressed out about it.
How many people (on both sides) would take a 180 degree turn in their stance on issues such as the war in Iraq if it was Al Gore as president instead of George Bush?
I seem to remember a fair number of Democrats supporting this awful war because they wanted to give the President the benefit of the doubt, because they more or less believed the what the executive branch of the government said until proven false. So I don't think it is symetrical - the cheerleading effect (at least in the past) was more Republican than Democratic. That may not be true in the future. I think a lot of honest moderates may have concluded we can't afford Republicans any more until the Republican party undergoes major changes.

It is SO FUN. Even in the rain.

Yeah, I'd like to believe that, but frankly I'm skeptical. We'll see in November.
SERPENTINE!
What is this? My only point of reference is a long sword defense.
Bless the krav Halloween party, or I'd never have an excuse to dress up.
Some people put a lot of effort into the outfits--last year's pair costume winners were the Incredibles, and they looked just that. Made from scratch too, I think including the padding. Single winner was a guy who dressed up as one of the female instructors. Terrible likeness, but really very funny.
The other things that flashed through my mind were: Britney Warrior Princess, Death, Alice in Wonderland, and Alice Cooper in Wonderland.
But I like Aunty Entity the most.
Someone came as The Crow to the krav party last year, and I'll never be able to dress as that around those people. He was terrifying looking.
Halloween used to be my favorite! But I got really lame over the last couple of years, thanks to stupid holiday-killing grad school. So far I have no plans and no ideas, although the idea of dressing up for work was floated. Not sure what I'd do for that, since it would involve wearing it all day, including commuting.
