I am not a number! I am a free man!

Giraffer-Asher

In your life there will be a myriad of numbers assigned to you. For instance, phone numbers, social security numbers, student ID numbers, address numbers, customer numbers, and employee numbers. The list goes on and on.

And each year that rolls by, you will be endowed with yet another number. Your age. This year, dad is trading in 35 for 36. In honor of this move up the ladder, we had a costume party for him. Can you guess what dad dressed up as? Here's a picture of him, and if you can't guess, I'll tell you at the end of this letter.

(Hint: the scowl is part of the costume.)

Some other costumes worthy of note:
Aunt Alicia was Alice in Wonderland
Your pal Ezra was
a lion
Cousin Jonethan was Darth Vader

(his mom dressed as a mouse & his dad a snare for a complete rendition of an Aesop's fable)
We dressed you up too, but you didn't like it too much at first. But after awhile you got used to it. I think you just weren't used to having a tail!
So, have you guessed what dad dressed up as yet? Let me compare his costume to the original.
You guessed it! Dad dressed up as Number 6 from the very obscure 1960s TV series called The Prisoner. Because his costume was a little difficult to understand, he had re-runs of the series running on a projector on one wall during the party so people would know who he was referencing.

Love,
Mom
