    i agree w/ biggie, great questions. i didn’t do so well, though. Scary Stories, Warlock, Frankenstein, Blair Witch – that’s all. Guess I shouldn’t have talked a big game on Sunday. In other news, you should make me a knockoff of one of these by saturday so I can have the coolest costume ever… http://www.buzzfeed.com/akdobbins/610-max-suit/

    Yeah Matty, it was my mission to stump you!! And that is a pretty sweet costume and would be fairly easy to throw together in a less cohesive way than the link. If you wanna do it and need ideas let me know because I’m thinking a sweatsuit made of some sort of fur and then a tail and an awesome hat which would have to be made.
