Ornery,

We all streaked and did pot in the 70s but some of us didn't get caught. ;) The trick was to streak when there weren't too many cops around, like a couple of buddies and I surprising the little old ladies coming out Sunday noon mass. Bwahahaha. I bet some went back into the church to confess having impure thoughts about teenagers. One of my friends was too gutsy and did it by himself on center ice during a WHA hockey game between Winnipeg and Quebec City. He fell on his ass on the ice in front of 14,000 fans and the television cameras. Easy catch for the security guards and policeman at The Coliseum. LOL:)

We bought my little boy a Pumpkin costume(it's a full body suit) from Costco and I must say he looks like a stud. A regular chip off the old block. :D

Thanks for the "boots" trick. Man, I better come up with something quick! I just bought some new work shoes, but they're oxfords. And I can't imagine wearing these around their house all night. They would mess up the carpet and tile for sure.

I wanted to use some black die for my hair. Is there something I could use that will wash out? My wife said there is a type that will wash out after five washings. Could I wash it five times in a row and be done with it in one day? Do Goths even die their hair black for better Goth effect? If not, I won't bother. Ooh, how about the black hair die and gray temples like Grandpa Munster? He was pretty Goth! Hmmm, I think he had a green complexion too. :eek:

And as for getting bagged by the cop streaking, we decided to go skinny dipping on Lake Erie while we were nekkid. Problem is, we picked a private stretch of beach to do it. A resident called the cops. We saw him slowly creep down the road toward the truck. Didn't know he was a cop till we backed out passed him. And the rest is history!

black hair color ?

We have a local costume/party store that has all sorts of stuff.

many different colors of make-up cream for body color tinting. This stuff will stain clothes & may not washout.

They have all colors of spray 'hair-paint', goes on like hair spray & washes out easily. Some years the big drug chains like Walgreen's & Eckerd's, plus Walmart carry it too.

PS: we just got started on planning costumes early this year
