the last time we did halloween we went (me & the wife) as klingons. i have the head pieces still in a box somewhere, and the costumes are hanging in my closet. the man's armor was put together from different pieces you can buy in a store, and it's over black pants and black turtleneck with the neck cut out of it. the female's armor was much of the same thing, but i had to incorporate a push-up bra into the breast plate.

yes, i was a professional halloweener (weiner?). i used to work for haunted hayrides in cardiff (before that it was on the campground that the owner's parents rented them the space for). the said there was another one in lakewood, or lakehurst, not really sure. i can remember the franchise fee was heavy, like $50k but you got all the rights to use their artwork and vincent price's face. the insurance was the real heavy fee, and after the guy got caught in the hangman's noose, they couldn't get insurance again.

it was a huge cash cow, though. all of the workers were teens so they worked for minimum wage. after all was said and done in a month's time, even with the insurance being as high as it was, they walked away with 100k ( for a month's work! ). anyway, i kind of lost interest in halloween after that. talk about ghosts...
