Reader participation: Halloween costume exchange
Since it’s October 29, I’m guessing there are plenty of people out there scrambling for last-minute Halloween costumes (personally, I’m smug and prepared). Thankfully, the movies are a perpetual source of excellent impersonation ideas–even if you never actually pull off your favorite costume ideas, there are always things you could be, if you had a professional seamstress and makeup artist following you around.
In that spirit, I thought the CH crew should share the costume-idea love: if you’re feeling inspired, tell us 1) how you’re dressing up this Halloween, if you’re dressing up, and 2) your favorite movie-inspired costume idea. If you can only furnish #2, that’s good enough for us, but we might call you a party pooper. We hope you don’t mind.
Anyway, I’ll start. On Tuesday, I’m going as Betty Crocker. As for my favorite movie-ish costumes, I’ve always wanted to dress as Velma from Scooby Doo.

This is a random comment to say that I went to high school with the daughter of the woman who provided the voice for Velma on the cartoon version of Scooby Doo. /trivia from Heather’s high school years

When a student I, like many other youngsters, got much debt due to student loans, couldn’t pay them off for 5 years and my credit score was so low I couldn’t afford to buy a house. But in the net I found a good site and learned how to rebuild my credit and manage credit wisely. To increase my score I applied for a secured card at
