Paining it blue would have taken too much time I suspect.
I bought an iPod yesterday that came with two Apple stickers, armed with those and pretty much nothing else it looks like I could be a serious contender in this thing.

This is probably the worst example of non-interesting, irrelevant "news" EVER on slashdot. Some guy makes a mildly amusing mask and it's a freaking main-page story? Holy crap.

Probably because the editors forgot to do the Hallowe'en [slashdot.org] Poll [slashdot.org] - AGAIN! This is the third year in a row they've done that.
BTW - You can still vote in the old Hallowe'en polls - they're not closed - so why not post them in your journal and let people vote?

And that would be a fun woman's costume if you could find a way to stow the masks hidden somewhere in the costume (good luck) and was an expert in slight-of-hand at replacing them for mood changes (maybe held in place magnetically).

DiBergi: "Why don't you just make 255 louder and make 255 be the top number, and make that a little louder?"
Nigel (after taking a moment to let this sink in): "These go to 257."

You seem to have posted this amusing but irrelevant "story" on Slashdot. Please remove it and resubmit at again digg.com. You might want to alter the title from this:
To this:
Increase the number of exclamation marks as you see fit, depending on how creepy you feel the mask photo is. You might help your chances of getting the re-submitted post to Digg's main page by using the acronym "OMG" and suggesting that people who don't check out the link are loser's (and yes, you should definitely pluralize it with an apostrophe).
