Happy Halloween–or All Saints’ Eve!
Yes, I know they mean the same thing.
Here is my costume:

It’s a T-shirt, and the small print at the bottom reads “and the Alaskan Scallop Surprise.” That’s because it’s a T-shirt from Alaska, where they have many sea otters (though not as many as they would have if they hadn’t been made into pelts for centuries)! I prefer 100% cotton otter-inspired clothing.
Porpoise encouraged me to buy the shirt to wear as I pass out Halloween candy tonight. It will probably also make a couple of appearances next summer when the Harry Potter 7 book and the Harry Potter 5 movie are released.
If you want your very own “Hairy Otter” shirt, it’s available . Sadly, it only comes in youth sizes (fine for those of us who are vertically challenged).
