    Normally I do not dress up for Halloween but our company is having a contest and the winner gets a new desktop system so I'm intrigued. Any ideas on something cool that would be work appropriate?

        Dress head to toe in pink and put a shoe on your head - Be Bubble gum on the bottom of a shoe! That was my costume a few years ago. Or get a piece of plywood, cut a hole in the middle and wear it around your waist. Wear a lampshade on your head, put an alarm clock on the board and maybe a book, and a t-shirt with a "1" on it - go as a "One night stand"

          No, that parameter completely screwed up my ideas.

                I saw a guy who dressed up as Clippit once. I'm probably going to do that this year if I have time to vectorize the design for it and get it printed on poster board.

                  Go as the Invisbile man but don't turn up - then tell everyone you did the next day. "But I didn't see you" they will say "See how good my costume was!" you can retort.

                      Why not go as the pointy-haired boss? That will be a good test of YOUR boss's sense of humor.
