Dear Bubby,
I've been invited to a halloween party this weekend but I don't know what to wear! It seems like all the good costumes have been taken. Do you have any advice for a costume to help me stand out in the crowd?

Dear Maskless in Missouri,
Well if you want to stand out in a crowd you could just wear a hat and a beautiful smile. But then you might get cold so I would not advise it for this weather. Then you could go to the opposite extreme and add a barrel and suspenders. But then it would be difficult to dance. So why don't you just put on something shimmery and waltz in. Some one will be sure to run up to you and ask for all your dances for the night. Whatever you wear - whatever you say - you will be the hit of the party - you are made for it
