Sam: I know, I know. And while I (obviously) don't agree with their stance on slavery, in my neck of the woods at least it was less about slavery and more about state versus federal rule. That, and a number of my great-great-somethings were on the rebels' side. Sorry. I still love you guys? :(
Heh. Poor Sammie. *pets* I considered going with the safer (aka Union) alternative and decided that this would give me a reason to make him squirm every time anyone glared at him. The costume might change by the time of the party, though; I'm still looking for a good Indiana Jones outfit, as that was actually my first choice. Well, actually my first choice was a cowboy, but Dukes already beat him to it. Sigh.
It is, isn't it? I just hope he doesn't decide that since it's the perfect male stripper outfit, he's going to use it as such.
I'm still a little torn on the Phantom thing, too, because as I was hunting around I found this. I'm pretty sure Jono's already got that entire outfit in various forms, minus the hands.
