Halloween costume ideas made easy

Seriously, this will cut down on your search for the perfect Halloween political costume. My doughter is going to be a lady bug but you can be Sarah Palin (just need go-go boots), John McCain(army jacket), Joe Bidden (eeww- a suit?) or break-out your under-roos and be super Barack Obama. here are some more odd-ball costume ideas ones. A couple years ago I was my punk rock pal Chris Gobo Pierce. Complete with his checkered vans and glasses at his own party. He said no one ever had the balls to do it. I guess I am ballsy.

RIP Lorenzo the blue amazon parrot

He was 31 years young and was supposed to live to be 80 human years but I guess he wasn't in it for the long hall like I had imagined. We got him in Guatemala when he was whee little bird rescued from scientists doing testing on birds or so the story goes. He's made every move with out a problem and it has been inside fight who was going to get him next amongst the wifes. He even endured a Chicago winter or two along his years and if could only talk, he'd have a lot of stories of his travels to tell and miss-haps with mountain lions, other birds and squirrels. It is a very sad, sad loss for my family and I personally am going to miss his skreeches and whistling very much. Most of the people who have ever been to my parents houses in New Jersey to California have partied with Lorenzo and tried to make him say more than the few words he knew. I even had him in College for awhile and nursed him when he had a very bad cold and he bounced back. So I was very shocked when I got the news this morning. So please lets have a moment of silence and hug your pet.
