Homework is evil

The idea for a homework halloween costume was conceived by a seven-year old boy who has developed early-onset intolerance to homework. Unfortunately there are no cures or drugs available for homework.

But you can dress up as homework and warn others of this terrible scourge. So committed is this child to spreading the message on the horror of homework that he wore the costume to the school halloween party where he confronted teachers, vice-principal and principal.

Word is that they laughed, but it was a nervous laugh.

The homework costume was executed with the help of some foam, one-sided carving blades, contact cement, paint and an all-nighter pulled the child's father.
