***Contest*** Pick Our Halloween Costumes for 2008.

I'm sorry... I kind of forgot about this thread.

We're still looking and discussing. I hope she chooses something soon, I don't like waiting until the last minute.

Still, I'm liking Tim or Al and Pam. Instant recognition, cheap to make.

The only problem is that Tim Allen is.... ugh....

...Tim Allen.

Am I the only one who hated the show Home Improvement?

Don't tell me you're dissing the star of the GREATest Sci-fi film epic ever filmed.



OK, point taken. She's there on the right.

How about two women?

My favorites of all time:

Betty Davis and Joan Crawford

Google pictures of "What ever happened to baby Jane"?.......cheap wigs and dresses are the only thing needed and the make up

Great suggestion, since both Davis and Crawford have a mannish look in that movie.

A professional makeup artist might even be able to get reasonably close to a 'look-a-like' look in both of them.

1. Comfort, we need to be flexible and comfortable throughout the night.
2. Cost, I'd like to stay under $25-30 per costume - thrift stores are great.

Here you go..and I am sure that you already own the materials...

Two movie extras in the latest Romantic Comedy/Horror film/Action Thriller(Action Thriller you would have to create a better story... )

You could still do the role reversal thing...

I mean, c'mon, could you be anymore inclusive/vague?

How about any human being in history. Do I win?

I was teasing too...my suggestion was my 'lazy way' out for the last two Halloweens...

Since elevatedone likes dressing the other part....why not Hugh Hefner & elevatedone can be a playboy bunny.

That's not really all that spendy, Hugh needs a bathrobe that ties at the waist, and you could go all kinds of wild on the playboy bunny thing


Rosie O'Donnell & Donald Trump?

Wanna hear the worst costume ever? Age 15 I go to a church Halloween costume party as:



Took a box to a foldout camping bed and made it up to look like a cigarette box, with aluminum foil top.

But I forgot to make armholes or a head hole - actually Mom said 'no' don't destroy the box for the bed.

Imagine putting it on and everything turned dark, could't hear, see or party. D'oh. (smacks forehead).

Those are some pretty good ideas...

I might even like them better than my milkman and preggo wife idea...

Nice work Jen

You could be Marilyn Manson, or Charles Manson, and she can be Marilyn Monroe!

Some more good ideas guys... I'll make sure that Supr sees this thread this weekend.


One of you hit on something that I think she might go for.

Well, our party has come and gone, it was a great night.

I'll be posting some pics soon.


We ended up going with, Little Red / Wolf, from a previous year. We could pull together what we wanted to do.

Thanks to all who played.
