Halloween Arrests

According to the Town of Chapel Hill, during last night’s Halloween celebration on Franklin St, “five people were arrested for simple affray (4 arrests)and impersonating an officer (1 arrest).” It was a night that many people dress up, and likelihood that someone might dress as an officer of the law is pretty good. And that doesn’t even count being part of a coordinated Village People ensemble. So what must someone do, while dressed in a policeman’s costume, to be arrested for impersonating an officer. Maybe they should have arrested anyone dressed as Sarah Palin for impersonating a vice-presidential candidate?

Happy Halloween

Today has been a busy day. I started by spending hours getting my costume together.

I helped out at Grace’s class Halloween Party. She volunteered me for the hair and make-up station. Mainly I painted all the kids’ hair.

We had an office Halloween Party with pumpkin carving, a scavenger hunt, refreshments and a showing of the movie Halloween 2.

And finally, I went Trick or Treating with Grace and one of her friends. Grace is an Undead character from World of Warcraft and her friend is Pocahontas. Peter went out with his friends dressed as an elf.

And here’s a link to all my Halloween pictures posted on flickr.
