Shulie, dressed as “Max” from Where the Wild Things Are, took 2nd prize in the office contest. Robert was a very convincing vampire (until he ate the Kosher muffin from Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf), Todd was a Misfit (much less scary than his “Clockwork Orange” costume in ’08) and Tracey was a border patrol agent. (Not sure that the high-heeled boots are part of the regulation uniform.) Anthony wore Diane’s coat, scarf, hat and sunglasses and made a convincing  Dennis Rodman (except for the skin color, he looked EXACTLY like him!) and Diane simply came as David Letterman’s worst nightmare: blackmail.

Here’s Roland’s note:

I am going to be collecting your gently worn footwear to be donated to a person in need, whether they are victims of a natural disaster or subject to living in extreme poverty.  It is estimated that Americans have 1.5 billion pairs of unused shoes lying in their closets.  The charity can use each and every one of these pairs to make a tangible difference in someone’s life. I will setup a cardboard box in the I.T. area just place your shoes there and they will given to this charity from now till October 12^th.
