Halloween Wrap Up
Good Halloween holiday weekend. It had been awhile since the last time I was kicked out of a hotel party by the Minneapolis police. It’s good to know that it still feels pretty good. I ditched the Ketchup costume at the last minute in favor of an evil golf outfit. It was an all white Tom Wolfe affair with brilliant touches of Tom Watson circa 1982 when he won the U.S. Open. The misses sewed me a great tam to complete the outfit. I got these off white patent leather Brunswick shoes at the Salvation Army for a dollar. They were two sizes too small but I made the sacrifice to pull the whole costume together. My toes are still sore today.

At the halloween party I attended, the Oopma Loompa Nation (OLN) was well represented. It was definitely the go to costume for many. My favorite costume of the night was a guy who went as the one-arm drummer of Def Leppard. A simple costume that consisted of wearing a Def Leppard Paranoid t-shirt with one arm tucked in the shirt. I think he even pinned the sleve. He had a great wig and carried a drumstick in his good hand. Classic.
