My Harpo Halloween costume
I’m not a big fan of Halloween as a holiday but did read this interesting article at the New York Times about Halloween costume correctness on campuses today. California Institute of the Arts, the school I attended in the mid-8os was famous (or infamous) for their outrageous Halloween parties. No costume correctness there; the biggest concern there was if the costume covered anything (paint seemed to be the choice of material). This not being my style I decided on dressing up as Harpo Marx, complete with a curly wig, trench coat, and horn. I loved this character- no talking, just blowing my horn as a response.

Finally. SCOTUS agrees to take on marriage equality
Thirty-six states and the District of Columbia have legalized same-sex marriages. The Supreme Court on Friday agreed to hear cases from Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee over whether same-sex marriages should be legal throughout the nation or if individual states have the right to determine that marriage should only be between a man and a woman. It’s time for the question to be resolved. It’s time for equality for all Americans.
Happy New Year- 2015
