Happy Hallowe'en, everyone. To celebrate the spooky occasion, here are some costumes from this year's 22nd annual Tompkins Square Hallowe'en Dog Parade in New York City.
Butthead is my favourite.
Here are some more that I thought were particularly funny and creative.

The British government's waste watchdog, the Waste and Resources Action Programme, has advised that instead of buying an outfit for that special occasion, it would be a better idea to rent one. A large part of the retail sector could be transformed into a service industry that specializes in renting clothing. Those items of apparel would be worn by many individuals over the course of a number of years, thus prolonging the useful life of a garment.
Wouldn't it be interesting to go to one of these shops for, say, a schoolgirl outfit, a pirate costume, a naughty french maid uniform, or whatever you fancy for this weekend's roleplay fun?
