Halloween via 0dysseus

Halloween is coming, and Listologists are starting to get into the spirit. 0dysseus has two great posts, one on the best costume she (assuming those references to sugar and spice and all things nice and field hockey are hand-tippers) has ever seen:

The effect of seeing an eight-foot, black-clad, cattle-skull being walking around with a scythe would be frightening enough. Throw in the altered limb length, unnatural movement and the extended head and you've got yourself some homemade terror.

... and, a little further down the same discussion, a tale of her best Halloween ever:

We spent about two-and-a-half hours criss-crossing the town according to Robin's meticulously calculated path that would get us the most candy per mile. The last stop of the night was the house right next door to Robin's mom's house. The enclosed porch was dimly lit by a green light and Robin and Chris plunged through the screen door with me right on their tails. I immediately found out why we got in so quickly...

Great stuff from our resident Greek hero(ine).
