    hahahaha that is great. BUT - whose visage is hidden within your upside-down mask?

    glad you asked, its very loosely based on the Michelin Man mosaic, that exists in the Michelin Man Building :




    Michelin's slogan claiming that these tyres "drink up obstacles" is the literal theme of this floor mosaic inside the former headquarters on Fulham Road.

    The Michelin Man, also called "Bibendum" is about to knock back a cup full of sharp objects. He is proposing a toast - "nunc est bibendum" ("now is the time to drink").

    you might have to drink a few to "get" this one

    I am going to be the internet. This costume is quite simple as I will just tie a series of tubes together and wear them around my neck like a necklace. I'm trying to think of another layer that I can add to this costme so that I can cause some serious

    at the end of different tubes you should have the following: a 15 year old girl, a porn video, a cd, etc etc.

    i stumble across this image the other day and thought it would be easy to make and interactive because i could piss people off by bringing my arm down abruptly and barring them from passing.



    but now i don't care about halloween and plan on being a plain clothes corn maze dweller tomorrow and going to see pere ubu on oct 31

    when i started wearing of the whole novelty in my teens, i started wearing my dad's old army jacket, leaving one sleeve armless and going around as the one armed bum. low maintenance and it scared the kids across the street from my house.they had nightmares.

    in college, id get some girl to give me some pantyhose and go as a mugger. worked wonders. my boy topped it by not shaving, getting drunk and splashing on like aftershave ....presto! Alcoholic!

    in 2002 i made a george w mask out of cardboard, with a big texan gallon hat. i made a little cutout republican elephant on it and i wrote "VOTE ENRON" on the side. i stood at the entrance of a mall in Tacoma Washington (i was on the road) for hours waving at the cars that passed. finally some kids threw eggs at me. little dirty conservatives. that mask is floating around th ebay area somewheres.

    My pal and i went as the Mythbusters. For those who have met me in the "real world" will know that it ain't much of a strech for me to pull off the Adam charechter, and well, my pal pulled off Jaime pretty damn well if I do say so myself. We pulled the trifecta. Winning or placing in every contest we entered. People were CONVINCED we were the real Mythbusters. Total we won a 3day/2 night paid vacation to Vegas. $300 in cash, 10 free drinks and a $20 gift certificate. WE CLEANED UP!!!! One of those contests was the biggest in the TWIN CITIES, we got 3rd. It was at 1st Ave and we didn't actually make the final cut but we gave the audience what they wanted and they ate it up!!!!
