I was gonna be Officer Dangle from Reno 911, but I couldn't find the right short-shorts to complete the uniform. I was gonna go all-out, too. I had a full outfit selected from several police surplus webstites, complete with patches, a badge, a utility belt with pouches, handcuffs, and even a replica handgun. The final touch was gonna be a real, home-grown mustache... alas, I couldn't find the shorts, and I wasn't about to try my hand at sewing them.
Instead, I'm gonna fall back on my old faithful: Hunter S. Thompson. It's always good fun.
