I'm being a guy called Rambozo. It combines a clown wig, pink lipstick, camo face paint, a red bandana headband, camo fatigues, and a huge knife. Still not bought anything for it. I usually hate Halloween.

There's always Rambo-rina which is basically the Rambo/fatigue stuff topped by a tutu. And maybe a tiara.

in the past i've been a kissing booth.
this costume requires cutting out arm and head openings in a cardboard box.
i also made a slot and taped a ziploc bag to the inside for $$$
it was a fun costume!

this year i am being the morton's salt girl. all it requires is a yellow dress and an umbrella.

these are the ideas and costumes floating around the office:
> a 6'6" coworker wants to be a ninja - i don't know how anyone that tall can be 'elusive'
> another coworker is offering his shark suit, a self inflating shark suit
> one of the partners has a crescent moon costume, complete with dents

wow...i'm in trouble here....

Ninjas can range from heights of 3'6" - 8'0".
Their intense training and strong will allows them to master stealth regardless of perceived physical limitations. That way they can totally wail on pirates...

I am wearing authentic prison fatigues with a Nixon mask. Not that I'm making a political statement, only that the Nixon mask is creepy as hell.

I thought it would be funny to run around the mall with those fatigues on and see peoples' reactions.

Awww, gosh. That was funny.

One year I went as "the end of the rainbow". I had sky tights on and a t-shirt that said "You're looking at the end of the rainbow" (subtle, yes) and I covered it in gold coin chocolate candies. The whole ensemble was topped off - tastefully - with a rainbow poncho that I could easily lift for, ahem, easy access to the candy. On my shirt.

It might be a little too late for this one, but last year I was an Enron Exec. black suit, loose tie, tan face, shredded paper spilling out of pockets, and maybe a fake passport.... perhaps you could convert it into a Mr. Libby or Mr. Rove with some minor tweaks... the shredded paper is the key.

This year's costume: Lawn Gnome

OK guys - getting dressed up for a party tonight? Please post your costume photos on your way out the door (I imagine if you take the picture after that party the costumes may be slightly mussed up).

Will be posting mine shortly, as soon as the other half of my costume wakes up from his nap and gets dressed.

A hippie and a clown, but there's more to it.

The clown costume on Angus is one my mom made for me in 1969 when we were living in Oregon. My hippie outfit approximates how my mom dressed herself in 1969. So the costume is clown and hippie but the meta-costume is me as my mom and my son as me, circa 1969.

LB that's way cute. Clowns freak me out a little though. But your son looks not too terrifying.

I'll see if everyone will let me take their picture before we leave.
