all I can do is hope it's not too chilly tonight.
Don't worry; you have nothing to lose but your dignity. (Oh, never mind... I forgot who I was talking to.)
You could always do as my buddy did a couple of decades back. He climbed into a drycleaner's bag, stuffed it full of coloured balloons, and went as a bag of jelly-beans.

I suppose that if you absolutely had to, you could just stretch a condom around your scalpline and be a dickhead... :eek:

yeah--or if a female, a tube top



GRILLING is usually the MANLY thing, though----it usually brings out that .1% Neanderthal in ME--(I think some other men may have a higher percentage)

There you go, Moe----you could have just not shaved yesterday and went as a Neanderthal--BTW, what did you go as?
