You might remember that some of our friends here in Xining hosted a "murder mystery meal" about a year ago. This last Friday we held our second annual (?) one with some of the same cast and a few new participants. It was a RIOT once again. Lots of laughs and social commentary.
This year’s meal was entitled: Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Silver Bullet.
Instead of trying to find Sherlock Holmes-ish sort of clothing it was decided that it would be easier here in this context to put a somewhat 80s spin on it. Christa’s outfit was too much, complete with puffy denim skirt, a crazy Madonna top with a hoodie, leggings, fabulously big earrings and other forms of flare. Of course she put this whole outfit together herself, so I guess that says something in itself.
This year I didn’t have to play the gay guy (thank-you-very-much), but I did have to play the Latin lover, Juan Pinto, which I’m still not sure is much of a step up. But hey, I scored some lime-green pants in the deal. I’m sure I’ll get some good use out of those. (Ha-ha.)
It’s better just to show the pictures I think. So, click here for a laugh. I can’t tell you who the murderer was; that would ruin it for you. But I can say, "Ay, ca rumba, it’s wasn’t me, senor! I swear…" (My Brazilian character spoke a somewhat Mexican form of English strangely enough.)
yeti speak...
