description:
I'm afraid I ended up with what must be considered a train-wreck, at least as far as this contest is concerned. I like my mix, but for a party? This is a mix for a wake, or a mass suicide.

The theme: A wake for all the stock brokers jumping off buildings. Dress as a mourner or a dead stock broker. Alternative methods of suicide acceptable.
