"Alice in Wonderland"
Halloween '06

I was Alice in Wonderland this Halloween... and why not?  Alice in Wonderland is not just any ordinary child fiction. This classic story is full of philosophy, and truisms.
(okay, I'll admit that one would have to be on crack to write a story about a girl who falls into a rabbit hole!)

The absurdity of the plot is enthralling and just strange enough to freak people out... (plus, the Alice costume is "oh-so-cute" and one should never forget the 'slut factor' on Halloween!) Enjoy the pictures and some quotes from
Lewis Carroll's original Alice in Wonderland!

Alice: Alice in Wonderland Quotes
I wonder if I've been changed in the night? Let me think. Was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I'm not the same, the next question is 'Who in the world am I?' Ah, that's the great puzzle!

Alice: Alice in Wonderland Quotes
But then, shall I never get any older than I am now?
That'll be a comfort, one way - never to be an old woman - but then - always to have lessons to learn!

"If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't.
And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would.
You see?"
