Impaled Steve Irwin took the cake at the partay I was at.
One guy had a Devo style jumpsuit and a portable boombox. He ran around and gave ministrip teases to people - it mustve been a gag on the Japanese street vendors from the first 'Jackass' film.
Good Stuff.

There was a guy at our halloween party dressed as gum-on-a-shoe this year. It was okay, I guess. Picture is below, and more pictures are here.
Jesus is always funny. I dressed as Jesus as a senior in high school. I was "crucified" on a large cardboard cross, and was wearing only a crown of thorns and a pair of tighty-whiteys. Later, I put on a sundress and hung a sign around my neck that said "Jesus was a cross-dresser". Get it? Ha ha ha.

Pulp Fiction costumes were funny about 8 or 9 years ago. Now they bore me like "Blues Bros" costumes, and in fact they are quite similar: "Hey lets were black suits and sorta skinny ties..." ZZZZ
Black-face only fun when eating watermelon.
Best costumes in E. Cambr. were a fantastic Shirley Temple with homemade ruffled red dress, lollipop, and tap shoes. Rob from 26 Warwick St. as Marie-Antoinette was also fairly inspired. Pete Galiea was a member of blue man group, and Roadhouse was Spiderman.

So, I think the best part of my night was that my ride and party friend was the only single, female rabbi in town. It was a little weird being loaded in the car ride home with her driving and telling me about her dating life with me trying not to slur my words and sound like a dolt, and trying to keep all the punch I had in my belly...the open window on the highway helped.
Honestly, the party I went to would've been fun for all of y'all. There was a family dressed as Dog the Bounty Hunter and his wife, and their 2 year old son was the inmate. Priceless.
I even ran into and talked most of the night with a dude I went on a blind date with before I moved here. He was shitfaced from the start, so it was pretty funny. When I saw him in February he was dating a blond. She was nowhere in sight, and when I asked where his special lady friend was, he said he didn't have one. Then he gave me his card to be in touch about coming with me to NOLA for a clean-up trip I'm leading in December...while he was staring at my overwhelming and overflowing cleavage.
Haven't dealt with someone not being able to look me in the eye because of a breast distraction before, or maybe I never noticed before.

I really think that the little car makes tommy the winner...
But I think we had a pretty good showing in Cambridge, too...

The guy dressed up as the gym teacher that had people do the long jump* in the kitchen of the party was pretty good, too.
*After telling this story to Chippy, he was quick to point out that what we did as decidedly not the 'long jump' but the 'broad jump', as we didn't have a running start.

BTW: Since the thread is titled "Best Costume Halloween 2007" all of us should probly shut the eff up and let Rory and Lee "Black Eye" Bronson do the talking/posting...

Sorry about that...I think I've been doing a little time travelling myself these days.

Was reminded yesterday of the guy who went as one of the cavemen from the commercials on tv. Awesome.

Hey! I take umbrage to that nickname!
For 2007, I hopefully will debut my Rorschach costume.

If it's anything like my "Moth to a Flame" of 1997, it will be awesome and you'll get some weird looks. Satisfaction is self-sustaining.
