ADULT CARE BEAR

By JAMES TENAFLY

It’s the day before Halloween which means 1) you’ve got a bus to catch pronto if you’re going to make it to our party tomorrow, and 2) it’s officially too late for you to come up with a new costume idea. Which is probably just as well because, statistically speaking, you probably picked a terrible get-up anyway. This year get ready to see lots of “Balloon Boy” (most irritating person at the party), Michael Jackson (good luck finding a non-WASP dressed as MJ), and a new batch of “adult-” costumes including the troubling “adult care bear,” “sexy Queen of Hearts costume,” and “adult Snow White.” With sexy costumes running so low on new ideas, how far can we be from the confluence of dead/topical celebrity costumes with the adult- world? I for one would love to see some poor soul attempt sexy-latter-day-Michael Jackson.
