anybody got ideas for a halloween costume?
i've got a last minute request. I have a choice to dress as a superhero, character from the book the Outsiders, or disco for school Friday. I'm nixing the whole disco idea. I hated it the 1st time around, unless i'm a disco superhero. I was trying to come up with a superhero somehow related to books or libraries, but I'm coming up empty. you guys are great at coming up with ideas.

My wife took a gray t-shirt, ironed "WELCOME" on it. Sewed a couple of loose fall leafs and a rolled up newspaper. She was a doormat.
