Halloween Jam 2001

"Each year on Halloween night, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch that he thinks is the most sincere and flies through the air with his pack of toys for all the good little children in the world."
-Linus van Pelt

"I gotta rock!"
-Charlie Brown

For the first time in three years, I threw a Halloween party on November 3rd, 2001. These pictures are from that event. About 30 people or so showed up, which is less of a turn out than this year's Jammy Jam, but it was pretty fun just the same. Again, there are a few people that I was not able to get a picture of. Sorry about that. But here are some of the ones I did get.

The Contest

As with the Jammy Jam, I decided to give out prizes out for the 3 best outfits male and female. I dunno why I feel the need to separate into categories, I just do. Think of it this way, it means more prizes. Winners were voted on by attendees of the party. 3rd prize winners each received a bag of Smartees. The 2nd prize winner for the boys got a devil costume for next year and the 2nd prize winner for the girls got an angel costume. Both first prize winners received a $20 Powercard for Dave & Busters.

The winners were:

Boyz Grrlz

1. Mav 1. Mathilde

2. Joe 2. Jenn

3. Curt 3. Justina

Runners-up who deserve honorable mention for just barely being edged out of third place are Max and Steph.

(52K) 600 x 600 Steph dressed as an anarchist cheerleader from the Nirvana Smells Like Teen Spirit video.
(50K) 600 x 417 George and Tall Guy camed dressed as YT and Hiro from the book Snowcrash.
(59K) 600 x 513 Jeff is a hanging chad. His name tag says "Hi, My Name is Chad." It's a pun you see. Claire is some obscure video game character named Poochie. I dunno anything about her, but the character's picture is on her shirt and she looks just like her. *shrug*

(22K) 480 x 640 Dan, just before putting on his evil demon outfit.
(27K) 327 x 600 My first outfit of the evening. How can one man be this fly?
(80K) 480 x 604 "Come along and ride on the Fantastic Voyage! Just roll it up! That's what we're doin'! Just roll it up! That's right!"

(37K) 476 x 568 Emily with her short lived halloween mask. You know, its amazing how many people wear black at Halloween.
(39K) 356 x 600 Steph showing off her pom poms.
(51K) 450 x 600 I personally really liked Max's Moses costume. "Let my people go!"

(24K) 430 x 329 Joe. I have no words to discribe this.
(46K) 440 x 600 Justina as a "Naughty Nurse." And people wonder about my attraction to late night B-movies.
(34K) 600 x 442 John and Dana, who I don't think is wearing a costume. She just needs more sun.

(44K) 338 x 600 ... and the 2001, Playmate of the year is.... ummm.... well... me.
(31K) 600 x 506 Dana sits on Dana's lap as Antonio apparently thinks dirty thoughts.
(45K) 381 x 600 See, I told you Dan was an evil demon. He just couldn't resist copping a feel.

(44K) 300 x 600 "She's got legs, she knows how to use them.
She never begs, she knows how to choose them.
She's got a dime all of the time, stays out at night movin' through time.
Oh, I want her, said, I got to have her, the girl is alright, she's alright."
(41K) 379 x 600 I simply amazed that Jenn came up with an executed this costume idea in like 4 hours.
(57K) 486 x 600 Coming Summer 2002. He is a freedom fighter from the future and humanities last hope. She is a displaced goddess from the mythological kingdom of Olympus. This is the story of their love. When Walter Met Regina. This film has not yet been rated.

(73K) 600 x 464 "Jake never gives up!
He'll Stay til the fights done!
G.I. Jake is there!
G.I. Jake American Hero!
G.I. Jake is there!"

(55K) 395 x 600 Mathilde won the girls contest, which is good, because those wings just kick so much ass.
(63K) 600 x 544 Almost as cool as the wings was the little butterfly tattoo she had. I don't know how many people noticed it, but I just think it added something.

(27K) 500 x 521 Monsters get all the chicks. Ummm.... sort of, anyway.
(51K) 600 x 469 Jer showed up too late for the costume contest, presumedly because he was out pimping the undead. Check out the silver fangs. BLING BLING!
(49K) 439 x 600 Regina also took pictures at the party. Whenever she gets around to posting them, I'll put a link here.

(79K) 415 x 668 There was much debate as to whether Curt was dressed as the Mad Hatter or Elton John. I think the answer is obvious.

"And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
Till touch down brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man!"
(67K) 600 x 438 For reasons that I can't explain, a game of Twister broke out, with like 7 or 8 people playing at once, I started taking pictures once I was eliminated.
(58K) 600 x 441 Ben and Geoff officiating over the Twister game.

(88K) 600 x 572 The game was long and violent, and in the end only one could remain standing. (OK, I admit, this picture is here, just so I could have the obligatory gratuitous cleavage shot... there are plenty of butt shots already).
(59K) 600 x 545 Speaking of which, here is Justina checking out Mathilde's ass. She claims she's looking at Joe's. I dunno. What do you think?
(45K) 363 x 600 Halfway through the party, 'gina decided to change outfits. (Just like me... copycat!)

(32K) 600 x 329 It's not a good party unless people start to pass out. So here it was beddy-bye for Em...
(36K) 567 x 438 and Jer...
(20K) 519 x 400 and Tara...

(57K) 600 x 413 and Dana....

All in all it was a pretty good party. Next year, its someone else's turn.
