Just 10 days until Halloween! So I thought it would be fun to have a thread about costumes...
What's your ATF costume that you've worn?
What the sexiest costume you've worn?
What are you going to wear this Halloween?
I'll start. My ATF costume was Robot from Lost in Space, when I was a little kid (back then they were first-run episodes). I made it out of cardboard and tin foil and a puffy coat for the arms. I'd planned to add lights but it turned out to be beyond my limited budget and the technology of the era.
My sexiest costume was... Orson Welles, many years ago. Yes, weird I know. But the way I greyed my hair and beard, and what I wore, I realize in retrospect I looked not so much like Orson but more like The World's Most Interesting Man from today. Whatever, it seemed to work as several young ladies came up to me during the evening to converse and flirt. Which didn't make my date very happy.
Not sure yet what I'll dress up as this year. I'll probably be doing hazardous duty handing out treats, so maybe a Red Shirt ("He's dead, Jim!"). Or maybe The Donald--that'll scare 'em! 😨
