Aww… I was kind of hoping you’d dress up like [Spaceman Spiff](http://www.dsp.sun.ac.za/~jjb/pics/spiff.jpg). 😛

:dubious: I don’t know how good-looking a female Clint would be. Although I suppose I could look cute in the hat.

I guess could find some furry lists and see if anyone had a [wolverine](http://bss.sfsu.edu/geog/bholzman/courses/Fall00Projects/wolverine.html) costume I could borrow.

And I could pick fights with people five times my size. :eek:

White leather dress, barefoot, and I’d have to bleach my hair white or get a wig. And borrow a hyper-intelligent big white dog from someone.

Or a pale grey ballgown with tiny sparkling crystals all over it. I wouldn’t have to wear a wig, but I’d still have to borrow a dog. Hmm.

I’d wear bib overalls and carry a half-full bottle of Jack Daniels.

But nobody would know why.

I figured you would be wearing [this](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:CanMonsterMovieAlbumCover.jpg).

P.S. [Here](http://www.shortpacked.com/limitedprints/robinoutfit.jpg) is a picture of someone other than me wearing the skirt **Anastasaeon** sent me.

Since PapSett is a combo of my two dog breeds , PAPillon amd Gordon SETTer , I could do one of two things: either try to figure out what a cross between the 2 breeds would look like :eek: (A Gordie with upright Papillon ears??) or just come with Kharma and Jay accompanying me…

Jeeze. Maybe a bunch of Rube Goldberg-y invention thingys fastened onto my clothing. (“Mothers of invention”).

Or maybe I’d carry a bucket of lemon-flavored slushees so I could show people what they weren’t supposed to eat 🙂

I’d like to attend but I fear I may clear the room…

You know, the more I think about it, that would be a really cool costume. I liked that movie…I think that’d be my costume.

Why, thank you.
