Halloween Can Be Scary

It's that time of the year to begin to look for Halloween costumes. A trip to costume store or surfing the internet for ideas makes one thing painfully clear:

Unless you dress as a whoopie cushion or a ketchup bottle, the Halloween costume industry is convinced that all women want to dress sleezy for Halloween.

Want to be a cop? A princess? A pirate? Only if you want to show the world what only your spouse and gynecologist normally see.

I had to take an extra trip to Walmart for an additional purchase just to remain with local decency laws.

A sexy nun? A sexy bug? A sexy Mary Had a Little Lamb?! Why? I miss the days of buying the costume in the box with the cellophane window. I didn't have these things to worry about when I was Darth Vader.
