c'est moi...!

BORG QUEEN'S COSTUME
This coming weekend, we'll be attending a significant anniversary celebration for Fr C's sister and her husband. Star Trek costumes required...at least if you want to have fun. Lucy can even come...if she's in costume.

So, ever clever BLT found this one for me. C'est partfait!!!

Christie's auction house description of it: A biomechanical body suit made from cast latex, painted as metallic cyborg hardware, with a pair of Borg gloves -- designed by Deborah Everton and worn by Alice Kriege as the Borg Queen in Star Trek: First Contact and subsequently by Kriege and by Susanna Thompson in Star Trek: Voyager (3).

Oooo Laaaaaa!!!!

Looks like it did already sell for $6K. Drat.

Former choir sojourners will know that an accoutremental surplice overlay is obviously obligatory...for 'other uses'. Demonstrating that 'Anglican Borg sound' has never been so fashionably commanding.



This.... ....plus this.... ....equals this!

sooo...is this part of your plan to attract "youth" to your choir ?
if you have dudes or dudettes wearing body suits... even an angelic cotta[sp?] couldn't disguise it from becoming a "prime recruitment tool"...
of course...one needs to be "careful" about whom one chooses to enrobe in said bodysuit...
or the results might be the opposite of that desired...[hee,hee]
you could reset the text of "For the Beauty..." to be "For the buffness of the choir... " but that's SOOOO
California...hee,hee... and then... there's the service of "lifting & cardio"...[sound track by Rutter, of course... with a disco beat...]
again, I say, "hee,hee"...

BTW...Lucy could always attend as a "shape shifter"...from the "dog star nebula"...

how do you like the new "me" ?
