Picking a Halloween Costume

A bald man with a wooden leg has been invited to a Halloween party. He doesn't know what costume to wear to hide his head and his leg so he writes to a costume company to explain his problem.

A few days later he receives a parcel with the following note:

Dear Sir:

Please find enclosed a pirate's outfit. The spotted handkerchief will cover your bald head and, with your wooden leg, you will be just right as Long John Silver.

Very truly yours,

Acme Costume Co.

The man thinks this is terrible because they've emphasized his wooden leg and so he writes a letter of complaint. A week goes by and he receives another parcel and a note, which says:

Dear Sir:

Please find enclosed a monk's habit. The long robe will cover your wooden leg and, with your bald head, you'll look like Friar Tuck.

Very truly yours,

Acme Costume Co.

Now the man is really upset. They've gone from emphasizing his wooden leg to emphasizing his bald head! Again he writes the company a nasty letter. The next day he receives small parcel and a note, which reads:

Dear Sir:

Please find enclosed a bottle of molasses.. Pour the molasses over your bald head, stick your wooden leg up your ass and go as a caramel apple.

Very truly yours, Acme Costume Co.
