Does our costume contest have an "Avodah Zarah" category?

It's Purim! Chag sameach!

I don't always do much costuming for Purim services, but for this year, I was feeling saucy and decided to trot out the Maenad costume that I put together for Halloween of 2002 ( photos archived here). I adored that costume and have kept all the pieces lovingly stored (and, in some cases, displayed in my living room) all

I remember that party. I thought you were very cute, and wanted to impress you with my knowledge of Greek ecstatic mystery religions.

Apparently it worked!

Now I'm imagining Maenad pickup lines: "Nice thyrsos. Wanna fuck?"

[chanaleh]

I don't think pickup lines are any use on Maenads. By the time you get close enough to talk to one, you are already being TORN LIMB FROM LIMB BY THE ECSTATIC HORDE RAAAAARRRR!

Thank you. This made me laugh. :)

I remember those photos.
It was my first Halloween celebration at GLSE.

You look fantastic in that outfit! Good color on you. And happy memories for the win! Oh, and you never did answer C. :)

[chanaleh]

Hee hee! I guess you're right. Will think of something.

(oh, and thanks :-)

Cool costume!

It'd be great to carry a paper mache man's head and call it the head of a young tiger, but the reference would probably be too obscure...
