My own group of odd-duck friends once again celebrated friendship, shared a meal, and watched a movie.........guess what........Rocky Horror Picture Show, of course!
Heck, it's traditional after all. Us old foggies know all the lines, sing the songs, and shout out the audience participation lines. Ouch! Yes, we're that daffy. But you bet were enjoying the silliness.
Daffy? For sure. Nothing like a bunch of 50,60,70,80 year olds in homemade costumes......
Zebra, with tail ....
Gypsy serving homemade pizza.....
Nurse with hand crocheted hat, pretty nifty......
Hippy tourist helping herself to the buffet.....
A pirate watching Rocky Horror......
And your guess is as good as mine. Perchance a nerd in lighted glasses? By the way, I think he's the only one in attendance who hasn't thought about applying to Medicare or Social Security yet. We'll let him slide for now.
Columbia, from the movie.....
Yes, we said we would all come in costume. Ok, this one's a joker. Not a bad t-shirt, I have to admit....
Yup, this cowboy is packing REAL guns. Hey, don't mess with old people!
Dr. Livingston, I presume?
Someone you definitely don't want to meet in a dark alley alone....
Tony The a Tiger attacking the zebra!
So people, for once I'm going to ask the audience if they connect with friends and neighbors during Halloween. Or is my little corner of the world a prime venue for an odd ducks convention?
The vast majority of email comments I've received say that people stayed home and either did nothing unusual or handed out candy to trick-or-treaters. My, my, my. I was exactly like that once upon a time too. No more! Halloween is a time where adults can get a bit silly and have childlike fun. So bring the holiday on.....I'm all for it.
