OMG The holiday fail costume is great! That's a very clever costume idea. I love it when people come up with something totally original and out of left field they always make the most interesting costumes.

All the costumes looks great. But "Rick Astley Cutts", that is, Matt Cutts looks terrific in this costume :)

Hmmm ... people dressing up as coworkers ... that sounds like it could be a whole separate holiday on its own.

In any case, thanks for the fun pics and thanks, too, for the help in devising my own Halloween costume this year -- I Google-Image searched for the Hoover Dam, printed out a bunch of the pix and handed them out to people, since, indeed, I was disguised as someone who truly gives a dam.

Haha those are great pics.

I posted in the Google Groups about Sitemap protocal about a week ago and haven't heard anything from anyone about it.

Do you have any ideas or recommendations on who to speak with about this?

Thanks a bunch!

Those costumes remind me of my video-daze. They were so much fun, and got the public involved with their kids. We did a lot of promotions with different area businesses and their products. These cross-promos got me national acclaim. Of course, that was then, and this IS NOW! We also involved the local rock station with their intern in a dunk-tank for charity. It was so much fun. People respond when you use some creativity.
