True stroy: Last time I went to a Halloween party, I wore a dark suit with a red tie & a flag lapel pin, and carried a Wall Street Journal – actually won “Scariest Costume” for dressing as a Republklan!
I saw Dylan sing Gershwin on a TV special. His heart was in the right place, but he won’t be replacing Ella Fitzgerald on my juke box any time soon. The man was born to sing his own songs.
.
There are some odd Dylan covers. Johnny Cash recorded “It Ain’t Me, Babe” to give young Mr. Zimmerman a boost, and composer John Corigliano set seven of his songs to new, highly modernistic, music (and claimed he’d never heard Dylan performing).
As a kid I favored costumes of inanimate objects…I’ve been a tube of toothpaste, a fire hydrant, an ear of corn, a pea pod (with peas), a green olive, a bag of jelly beans, and the Goodyear blimp!

Don’t be anything. I bet your “unique” charm is going to be enough to get candy.

I’ve seen people in costume as an Italian dinner, a postage stamp, and (really!) a spice rack.

You kids just listen to noise and don’t know what real music is. Big Band is real music, its our kind of music!

It would be funny if she went as Petey……………….probably not to Petey, though.

One year my sisters went as a thermometer (with giant aspirin hat) and a swamp.

Just flagged the spammer…would encourage anyone else coming on to do the same…we don’t need this nonsense.

In case you’re not sure what post I’m talking about flagging (or on case gocomics has removed it when you see this) it’s by Tooterfish.

Alice is short-circuited: she wants to be the very next thing she sees—except Petey. Eww!
It’s time for Madeline to intervene!
