In high school, on Halloween costume day, my friend and I won the best costume contest by coming as an organ grinder and his monkey. My friend wore a big "Mario" style mustache, a little "Northern Italian-alpine" style hat with a small feather, big orange suspenders, and "lederhosen" style shorts. We built a little "organ" out of one of those old "Pop-goes-the-weasel" pop up toys that played the song while cranking the handle around, expoxying it to a black-painted 3/4" wooden dowel. I was dressed all in brown .. brown pants, brown turtleneck sweater, brown shoes .. had a little pillbox hat with an elastic strap, and I carried a little tin cup. I had a dog collar around my neck and my friend held the dog lead to which I was attached.

We walked around the hallways during class breaks and he "played" the organ while I rolled around on the floor and danced, holding out the tin cup and raising my little pillbox cap from my head whenever somebody gave us a coin, and then I let let the elastic strap slap it back on my head and we continued on our way.

It was a great time, but I can just see the howls of protest these days ...
