Me, I'm going to be a graduated cylinder. It's one of those crafty, inside-jokey type costumes. About six people on my project team at work are going to think it's hilarious. You're probably going to think it's lame, but you can't deny how useful it will be for me to be able to go around telling people the volume of things. It's useful; admit it!

I thought about dressing up as Dick Pole, but I decided against it.

That reminds me, over at Strike 3 Forums, they're talking about a rumor that A-Rod was seen having lunch with a higher up in the Reds' organization. I'm not sure how seeing Mr. Rodriguez clad in the wishbone C would really meet any of the Reds' needs, but it would certainly provide lots of great opportunities for horrible puns, such as:

Spare A-Rod, Spoil a Series

A-Rod Catches Lightening

and of course

Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Give a man A-Rod and he'll put up some lovely curtains

Yeah, I know, they're terrible. But it could have been worse. I could have continued with the whole Dick-Pole thing.
