happy halloween.
halloween in nyc was great last night, as it was warm and the streets were filled with people wandering from party to bar to nightclub to party to bar to nightclub, ad infinitum.
on one hand i really do love it when someone makes a huge effort and gets really dressed up, but i think i’m most amused by the 1/2 assed, no effort costumes, i.e-street clothes with a blue wig.
or a pair of funny glasses. or a loosely tied tie.
the sort of ‘it’s halloween and i have to do something but i can’t think of anything and i can’t be bothered so i’ll stop in ricky’s and buy a pair of glasses with a penis nose and that will be my costume.’
i was going to dress up as corky st. claire from ‘waiting for guffman’, but i forgot to grow a goatee(and i didn’t have a toupee).
instead i dressed up as a quasi-middle aged guy trying to hold on to the last vestiges of his youth(i.e-i wore what i wear everyday).
in other news, gw bush has put forth a supreme court nominee who believes that women need to get their husbands permission in order to have an abortion.
so i guess that just as kanye west said, ‘george bush doesn’t care about black people’ it’s time for a woman to stand up and say ‘george bush doesn’t care about women.’
or, at the very least, ‘george bush cares way more about his extreme right-wing base than he does about women.’
happy halloween.
