Wish I had a pic of my sister's poodle Yumyum... he has outfits for every occasion.
:wacko:

Gotta love his name though! :lol: :wub:

I wish I had a dog with outfits. That'd be the awesomest thing ever.

Get a dachshund then. I had soooo much fun with little hats. :evil:

We went as Zorro and Elena. It was fun to have dark hair for one night. LOL

I got to dress up three times this week - once as Frida Kahlo, once as flower (with my awesome flower hat) with my dau who went as a flower fairy, then I was Athena with this beautiful and surprisingly warm toga type gown.
Dark hair is good to have any day of the year, or so I've found. ;)

Red isn't too bad to have either! ;)
king_girl - November 2, 2005 12:37 AM (GMT)
Strawberry-blonde for me....usually. ;)
I think I worried my sister-in-law when I showed up at her door. It was good for a laugh.

Scaring (or is that spelled scarring? :P) relatives is always a part of a successful Halloween, don't you think?
king_girl - November 2, 2005 12:46 AM (GMT)
Woo Hoo. I see that you agree. :lol:
We tried to get my son to jump out and scare some kids but they were so intent on getting to the door and the candy they didn't notice him. It was the thought that counts (oh and he is pretty little, lol)

You Who Are On The Road
Must Have A Code
That You Can Live By
And So Become Yourself
Because The Past
Is Just A Goodbye.
Teach Your Children Well
Their Father’s Hell
Will Slowly Go By
And Feed Them On Your Dreams
The One They Picks
The One You’ll Know By.
Don’t You Ever Ask Them Why
If They Told You, You Would Cry
So Just Look At Them And Sigh
And Know They Love You.
And You, (Can you hear and)
Of Tender Years (Do you care and)
Can’t Know The Fears (Can you see we)
That Your Elders Grew By (Must be free to)
And So Please Help (Teach your children what)
Them With Your Youth (You believe in)
They Seek The Truth (Make a world that)
Before They Can Die (We can live in)
Teach Your Parents Well
Their Children’s Hell
Will Slowly Go By
And Feed Them On Your Dreams
The One They Picks
The One You’ll Know By.
Don’t You Ever Ask Them Why
If They Told You, You Would Cry
So Just Look At Them And Sigh
And Know They Love You.

I read that out of context and thought that I missed a bunch of board drama.
j delight - November 2, 2005 01:19 AM (GMT)
LOL I tried not to go there either, but couldn't help myself.

I change my hair color all the time, it's blonde now. I was cleopatra for half the day, and sporty spice the other half :P

I almost forgot to tell everyone about an incident that occurred during the day in downtown Winnipeg on Halloween.
We got this ominous e-mail at work in the morning:
Employee alert
THE WINNIPEG POLICE DEPARTMENT HAS requested that all employees avoid the area of Portage Avenue between Smith Street and Garry Street until further notice. There is an incident in progress, and for your safety, you are asked to stay clear of the area.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Portage Avenue is one of our main streets. The intersection referenced above is one block from the MTS Centre (our arena), and two or three blocks from "the most famous corner in Canada", Portage and Main. So closing down Portage in the heart of down town is a BIG deal.
We were all wondering what was going on. Then we found out that someone was spotted going into a building wearing full body armour with a gun. The police were called, the hostage unit and SWAT team were brought in, they cordoned off the street, and then discovered that the "terrorist" was some guy in a Halloween costume.
j delight - November 2, 2005 03:24 PM (GMT)
I would say What a Moron, but I have a friend who did get arrested for being in such a costume. He and some friends were playing water fight with full 'mental' jacket, so to speak.
Remember the shut down of Birmingham, UK after the London attacks? There was a bag of leftover fireworks near the city hall.
Not that I blame them, but still.
The scary thing is that Bush wants to restrict travel and Blair wants vaccines for a flu that hasn't even been shown to pass among people, and yet viruses we KNOW are at epidemic proportions are ignored and underfunded. blah.

After 9/11, when the Anthrax powders started appearing, a co-worker noticed "suspicious white powder" next to the coffee maker and was about to call security to have the building evacuated. At that point, I placed the "deadly white powder" on my finger tip, and ate it. After pretending to grab my throat and collapse, I got up and reminded everyone that it was SPILLED SUGAR THAT A COFFEE DRINKER LEFT ON THE TABLE.
Then everyone calmed down and went back to work.
j delight - November 2, 2005 03:49 PM (GMT)
Every now and then, there comes a sane person.
:hail:
Daemon - November 2, 2005 04:25 PM (GMT)
I think that people like being terrified. It gives us something to do.
Bamada - November 2, 2005 07:23 PM (GMT)
Poe believed that people enjoyed to torture themselves. He thought that was why if you get a mean note you would read it over and over, to torture yourself.

Maybe things would be different if Eve ate a banana instead of that apple?

There's no Biblical evidence it was an apple.
Jack_Tarr - November 2, 2005 11:59 PM (GMT)
There is no biblical evidence that it wasn't an apple either.
kana da - November 3, 2005 12:00 AM (GMT)
True, but your statement, "If Eve ate a banana instead," implies that it wasn't a banana, and there's no Biblical evidence that it was or wasn't a banana.
Bamada - November 3, 2005 02:53 AM (GMT)
I bet it was a watermelon and she swallowed a seed. THATS why they tell you to spit them out. :yes:

Shortly after that incident, the University of South Carolina Gamecocks groundskeepers also found a white powdery substance in Williams Brice Stadium. After calling the FBI and having the substance analyzed, it was determined that it was the goal line, something the Gamecocks had not seen in weeks.....

Who the hell would name their team "the game cocks". They might as well go around in public with kick me signs on their backs.

It is one word...Gamecocks. It refers to "The Fighting Gamecock" General Thomas Sumter in the US Revolutionary war...

I think that's called revisionist history.
