A Clockwork Orange - Michael Nus

Hi Hi Hi there me droogies.

The title of this post says it all. I freaking love Halloween. If you read my last post you will see why. With any luck you took my advice and partook of one or more of the activities I recommended. Without getting arrested…

Sean, Jenn, Sheldon, Joel, Davida and I, went to the Silver Snail Halloween bash and it was quite the party. Just about everyone in there had fantastic costumes. It’s nice to hang with people who put as much work into costuming as I do when it come to Halloween outfits. I mean it’s only one day a year but it’s one day when you can be anyone you want to be, so why not go big? The Silver Snail will give you a hard time if you show up with no costume so it was good that I fit in with the others. The word on the street is that next year the party will be invite only and costumes have to be good for admission. I guess it makes sense since they go through the trouble of catering the party, giving out sweet prizes and offering free admission.

I played pool with Alice Cooper!The only peeve I have about Halloween is half-assed costumes and the clear winners this year were people running around as characters from Mad Men and the Clark Kent/Superman getups. Both costumes are basically just suits, with a couple defining characteristics that let the wearer get away with saying it’s a costume. Dressing as Joan Holloway is nothing more than a red wig and a pen on a string, while doing Clark Kent is just a superman T-shirt under a suit and your left over 3D glasses from the movies with the lenses removed. Craptastic.

Here are some of the really good costumes I had the pleasure of getting a picture of. You can see even more on my Flickr page! Also make sure to check Sean Ward’s Halloween roundup for a whole lotta awesome video.

Happy Halloween!
