Top costume I saw this year was the Post Alley Gum Wall.
This amazing feat was accomplished by wearing a card board box (cut to fit) that was covered by play dough. Brilliant. Right on Friend-Ben.
Sure, this might not have the same legs outside of Seattle. But for Best Halloween Costume for Seattle this right on top.

Also, did you know I miss-spell Costume every single time I write/type it. What you don’t know about my spelling mistakes could fill a book!

At dinner tonight I was reminded that certain people have above average appetites for certain foods (See: Me and Peanut Butter) and I got to thinking about what a compelling narative that could be.
In a flurry of lighting fast (divinely inspired?) thought I came up with Courses, The Movie. Similar to Signs, the protagonists have a laundry list of special dietary quarks that later are the key to their ultimate salvation and a glimpse into a higher order the universe.
Here’s a taste test of a scene for you:
Setting: Inside a Tortilla Factory, during a school field drip. The late-middle aged teacher is herding disinterested students through a tour while thinking back to an arguement he had a week in the past with his wife about not pushing himself to get a better job or break out of his rut. In the flashback, they are in a Mexican Restaurant and he orders basket after basket of chips. His wife ultimately storms out and you see the flashback end with another basket of chips arriving.
Queue a mishap at the Tortilla factory, hot oil is flash frying the giant sheets of Tortilla which are then falling about blocking the exits and trapping the students and perhaps some factory works. The only means to escape? Our hero must eat through a wall of Tortilla Chip.
I think this has legs. I am going to try and pitch it some movie people and see what happens.
