Go Go Power Rangers!

Topic: Sam
Remember Harry Potter? He is so five minutes ago. These days, Sam is all about Power Rangers!

Note the sword and the very Power Rangery stance. He went with us grocery shopping at Ralph's in that outfit, and probably startled several people, but I'm happy to report that he agrees to take it off for baths, bed and day care.

This was a $10 Party City special, and it's falling apart already. We will probably go through three such costumes before (a) Halloween gets here or (b) he moves on to a different obsession.

Alert readers will notice that we forgot to remove the hang tab from the top edge of his mask, so that he appears to be a Power Ranger with a strange growth on his head. Perhaps we can drive a nail and use the hang tab to suspend him from the wall when he misbehaves.
