Boo...
Well, Halloween has come and gone... I set up my 'Flying Crank Ghost' again this year in the window to amaze the masses. Kids were scared and dads were asking 'How'd you do that?' A good time for all. I went over to visit a friend for a few minutes, so I left the bowl of candy at the front door with a sign that said, "Please take on." Of course, some punk ass kid just dumped the whole thing into his bag. Whatever, payback's a bitch, especially when it involves his teeth rotting out and having to get a root canal or two.
I'm a firm believer in supplying good candy to rot out our kids teeth. I made a promise to myself that when I was an adult, the jury is still out on that one, that I wouldn't ever hand out Skittles, Starburst, Pixie Sticks are any of that froo-froo cheap as candy. I was handing out Snickers, Milky Way Bars, M&Ms, you know.. 'Real Candy'!
I love how every year the stores start stocking with the next big holiday to come 2 months in advance. I went to the store on Halloween to see about some last minute Bag 'O Spider Webs and all the Halloween crap was gone... It's Christmas time already, with Christmas music playing, bells a ringin' and four foot tall inflatable light up front yard snow globes running full bore. Gotta love the holidays.
