<p><font size="1"><strong>Date:</strong> October 31, 2007 4:32 PM</font></p>
<p>Here are the winners of the costume contest we had today</p>
<p>1. Dan Branson &#8212; 70&#8242;s disco outfit (also most Creative). Even had the shirt with big collar and afro wig. He wore it last year too, so it could also be said he dressed as his last year&#8217;s self which earns 7 &#8220;meta&#8221; points.</p>
<p>2. Josh Nelson &#8212; Spock on &#8220;Star Trek&#8221;. Felix Wayner also did Spock but Josh went the extra mile by having the pointy eyebrows and the pointy ears, black hair and a blue shirt and boots.</p>
<p>3. Erin DeLunier &#8212;  Angel. Erin was not able to wear costume because of the meeting with Telex but she said she would&#8217;ve had real feather wings and a halo that really floated above her head and would have taken us to Our Heavenly Father&#8217;s throne room. (That would have been incredible so this gets Most Original.)</p>
<p>(BTW, some of you were wondering what&#8217;s the difference between the Most Original and Most Creative categories. None of the judges knew the answer to that but they did confirm that they are in fact judged differently.)</p>
<p>4. Rudolph Vern &#8212; Thierry Amar of Yiddish folk band Black Ox Orkestar. Did the way he walks pretty well too.</p>
<p>5. Susana Hernandez &#8212; Sexy nurse. Nice touch with nurses&#8217; hat and the Red Cross shaped nipple tassles.</p>
<p>6. Geoff Shierry &#8212; (also scariest costume of the day winner) Vampire. Yusef Shaloub also was a vampire but vampires look different than he did.</p>
<p>7. Marybeth Baker &#8212; wore a mask.</p>
<p>8. Randall Short &#8212; either the California Raisins or a phone</p>
<p>9. Wei Wang &#8212; (also Most Funny) an extremely sad mother</p>
<p>10. Chelsea Winter &#8212; a retrospective of Italian film</p>
<p>Your participation in the fun today demonstrates our World Products spirit. Happy halloween.</p>

<p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt"> Sheryl,</p>
<p>Just FYI. The items Susana wore upon her bosom today are spelled &#8220;tassels.&#8221; &#8220;Tassles,&#8221; as from your e-mail of 4:32 pm today, spells something of which I am not familiar.</p>
