Lisa Nowak: Halloween Boon Or Halloween Bust?

Thursday, February 08, 2007

Having some schooling in economics, I'm wondering about the effects of Shuttle astronaut Lisa Nowak's diaper decision on the market for Halloween costumes. (Amazing how her intensive training and knowledge of equipment still occupied a brain awash in loopy madness.)

An adult diaper is low cost. But a decent-looking space helmet can inflate the aggregate price of the ensemble. Still, the whole package should have a lower price point than a life-like Katie Couric mask and hospital colonoscopy equipment. We'll just have to see.
