Happy Halloween everybody. I am posting this quickly as I get ready to leave work. My place of business (Datamark) goes all out for Halloween. I have posted a number of photos to my flikr account.
I really enjoy Halloween. It is a chance to dress up, assume a persona and be a hero, a villain, a clown or a king for a day. Most of us don't get a chance to be a lot of different things in our lives, and Halloween is a great chance to vicariously be another person.
For example, today I got to steal a golden idol and out run a giant boulder.
So my question to everyone is: who do you want to be today? (Great, now I'm going to have Oingo Boingo stuck in my head all day.)
But seriously, I have always wanted to be a hero, and defeat the bad guy and rescue the damsel in distress. And capes. I like to wear capes. Halloween is a day where that is not considered an "employment liability."
I hope everyone has a safe and happy Halloween.

Yes, I think you slept in a cape when you were little. Loved the pictures!
I've always wanted to dress up in an elaborate "Queen Elizabeth" costume and say things like, "We are not amused."
I love it that you are a man not afraid to wear a costume. You make a very convincing Indiana. (Is that a gold Mr. Potato Head?)
Jon,
Great post and pics! Thanks for your regular contributions. They make "Jaydines Finer Things" fun to read.
I get to dress in costume every work day, which these days is about 6 out of 7 days a week. Takes all of the guess work out of wondering what to wear today.
