So far, I've only read about 40 of Betty's books, and I'm having a blast reading the reviews. So, no, they are not going into a memory hole! I use them to decide which "lashed with whip cream" covered books I need to read next...Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10996490912397263355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-931981138747432610.post-14867927697639785472010-10-22T15:09:13.528-07:002010-10-22T15:09:13.528-07:00Betty Barbara here--

But my best one for myself was a business suit with a pirate sash and sword--I was a "corporate raider". (Boy, that dates that, doesn't it?)<br />I haven't done the costume thing is years and years and, quite frankly, I don't miss it.Barb in Marylandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11374278685536530837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-931981138747432610.post-61383808507184258172010-10-22T14:26:08.930-07:002010-10-22T14:26:08.930-07:00Other stand by costumes: Take that grad robe, put ...Other stand by costumes: Take that grad robe, put on a fancy collar, get a mallet and go as Judge Judy.<br />If you have a brown monk robe (and who doesn't have a few of those lying around) attach small size bags of chips to it. Avoid the bum, so you can take a load off occasionally without making chip dust. What are you?

One is a graduation robe, go as a graduate of the school of hard knocks, or something similar.
