Devils Night!

I usually try to have something topical, yet out of the ordinary for my Halloween Costumes. For example, a few years ago I dressed up as an envelope with anthrax in it, in tribute to then Senator Daschle's run in with crazy snail mailing "terrorists".
Imagine me holding this, ...with flour on my head.
So this year I thought I'd have something equally as controversial. Let me start by saying that I’ve got nothing against Southern California—except for maybe the smug idiots who live there erecting too many houses in too many places where there should be none. The only thing that perhaps bothers me more is the national media coverage dedicated to the wildfires that break out on an annual basis. I’m not heartless, but—like those who live on a flood plain or in Tornado Alley—if a person chooses to reside in an area prone to natural disasters, how much sympathy does that person really expect from me when disaster strikes? I do feel for the affected people (even if they are kind of plastic), but, pardon the pun, if you play with fire…
I guess this “costume” (there is a bicycling helmet duct-taped to the underside) is my reaction to that. Plus, I wanted to firmly cement my place in Hell.
…And when I get there, and Satan asks me why I made such a tasteless costume, I’ll just have to tell him, “Vegas made me do it, Beelzebub-a-loo!”
