The Theme from "Gilligan's Island"

Sometimes Halloween sneaks up on you. Or you just don't get it together. Or you didn't think you were going to a party, but now you are.

So you have your Safety Costume.

Like a tolerable girlfriend that you keep going back to, or a low budget state school, you've got a costume in your back pocket that's easy to throw together at the last minute. And there are probably 1/2 dozen photos of you, wearing the same dang thing, spread across a decade (or two).

Should I be pleased or embarrassed that Gilligan is my Safety Costume, based largely on the fact that if I wear a red shirt and a white hat, I look strikingly similar to Bob Denver?

The answer is probably, embarrassed . . .
