An original joke - yes, he wrote it himself.

A French foreign exchange student named Henri went to America to live with a boy named Sammy. One day Sammy asked Henri if he wanted to play Monopoly. Henri said, "Oui." "Oh, I don't want to play Wii," said Sammy. "How about checkers." "Oui," said Henri. "Fine," said Sammy. "We'll play Wii." As Sammy was setting up the Wii, Henri said, "I don't want to play Wii, I want to play Monopoly or checkers." "Ok," said Sammy. "So you want to play Monopoly or checkers?" "Oui!"

Wolf Knight

Inspired by Michael's "Spookduckularhalloween" costume contest, Joel constructed the following costume.

Materials list:
-empty milk carton
-cardboard
-strips of old jeans (for scabbard)
-t-shirt
-silver, black, green and yellow duct tape

He probably spent about 4 hours total on this project. The only help mom provided was buying the duct tape and approving the t-shirt.
