Let's Play Dress Up,

RELATED CONTENT

The Anchorage Press
For people tired of the same old Halloween costumes, The Anchorage Press offers a few ideas in celebration of the Alaskan tradition of doing things differently. One Alaskan-style costume suggestion, the 'Pipeline Has an Ouche,' only requires a few stovepipe sections and Band-Aids. On the more disgusting side is the 'Poopsicle,' an homage to anyone who's ever lived without water and used an outhouse during the winter. The 'It's Perfectly Normal,' the ultimate in low-maintenance costumes, only requires nudity and an explanation that you're 'trying to teach the children.' 'What better way to show...we're the permissive people who have strong ideas about what everybody else and their kids should do, while wanting to be left alone?'
