On the left, Hallowe'en 1977, I think. The absence of a dog in late October indicates Sagi was nearly gone, therefore fourth grade and 1977. I am a pack of Wrigley's Doublemint; CLH is a McDonald's garbage can. Both oevres are our own handiwork. The backyard, Old Lyme, CT.
And on the right, Hallowe'en 1998. I see that the fatal flaw with this costume was its lack of vertical symmetry. Barbie offered me a slinkier, red tank top, though, so I didn't have the big black thing on all night.
In 1999 I was the engineer from Schoolhouse Rock's Conjunction Junction.
In 2000, I was Charlie-in-the-Box. I wanted to be the spotted elephant but I couldn't make a trunk. I was going to be a die because I had the box, but I figured Charlie was akin to the elephant and I had the box. I committed heresyby watching "Rudolph" in October for textual accuracy in my costume. I wasn't thrilled to wear pink.
In 2001 I was a badly realized game of Twister. Photographic evidence is best ignored.
