Trick or Treat
Zeugma's still working on her costume, but Tink's ready for some trick-or-treating.
I'm hoping, for the girls' sake, that at least a few of the neighbors will be handing out tuna and kibble in addition to the usual chocolates and candy corn.

About
My name's Mike. I'm an assistant professor at the United States Military Academy at West Point, but the ideas I express here are my own, and do not reflect the views of West Point, the Army, or the Department of Defense. I write here about rhetoric, composition, and technology. I like cats.

What on earth did you do to that poor cat? You better have done it with Photoshop!
October 29th, 2005 - 22:15
Well, OK: between you and me, Tink’s costume had a little help from certain, uh, ancient eldritch digital technologies from beyond angled space. But Lil’ Cthulhu is still looking forward to spooking the neighbors.

That is FUNNY. Regardless of the costume finaglign, it’s obvious you got them both up on the same stool. That’s no small feat with meow people. Tink looks ready to bolt!

Precious. I’m more amazed that they sat still long enough for a photo. Did you doctor that?
October 30th, 2005 - 11:34
That’s great. Maybe you should add a caption that no real cats were embarrassed in the making of this photo.

By the looks of Tink’s costume (which seems to be somewhat influenced by HR Giger) I would have to guess that Zeugma will try and one up her with a look that could only make Kafka proud.

Very disturbing…and aren’t Halloweed costumes *supposed* to be a bit disturbing?!

The literary inspiration for Tink’s “costume” is the pulp horror fiction of H. P. Lovecraft. A few days too late, I stumbled across this fine pop-surrealist Lovecraftian painting
by the artist Pooch at the Roq La Rue Gallery site.
