Wonka, Elvis and the Old Lady






I was minding my own business Saturday night at a friend's Halloween party, when my mates dragged me to a costume contest at a local riverboat Casino. Of course I resisted, cause I'm so shy (what, can't you tell?)

The good news is that I won the $500 first prize. The bad news is that it barely covers the cost of my costume!

We had a ton of fun.

The ironic moment, however, was when the second place winner--an old lady with humped back--removed her rubber mask to reveal: an old lady!

We also had an "Elvis with Marilyn" sighting, which is I think a fairly accurate depiction of what he might look like today.
