Happy Halloween from the OTC crew!

By STACY VOGEL Friday, October 31, 2008 - 11:28 a.m.

The Gazette reporters decided to dress up like our beloved news editor, Sid Schwartz, for Halloween. Note especially the green felt-tip pens in our breast pockets. Stay tuned next year for our rendition of editor-in-chief Scott Angus.

What kind of mischief are you getting into this Halloween? Whatever it is, make it a good (and safe) one!

I am deeply sorry I missed out on this.

On a very related note, I saw a tie with deer heads and shotguns on it at the Goodwill the other day.

Yes, we should explain the napkin bibs. Occasionally Sid eats lunch in his office and puts on a napkin bib. And occasionally walks around the newsroom wearing it :)

No, but we did carry spreadsheets around with us for a while.

As one of Sid's older sisters I can confirm that he did indeed hone his hunting skills by gunning down a variety of woodland critters. Have to ask if anyone had the spiral, steno tablet in their back pocket? Another classic trademark.

Very fun you guys. Now explain the napkin/dental bib? Is he a fan of BBQ Ribs? Get a lot of root canals?

Sid's an outdoors boy. Hunts the mighty deer, and, like many successfuly hunters, he honed his skills as a lad by bagging squirrels with a .22. At least, I think that's what Cathy had in mind.

This is hilarious, although I'm not sure I understand the squirrel/reindeer on Cathy's shoulder...
