“That is so cute!!!!

8)”

“we had sooo much fun tonight. Kind a changed our front porch to a haunted house (used about 6 black shower curtains, fog, spiderwebs,strobelights, etc... really cool stuff). Kids ran off screaming.Too funny. We had a blast. How was your halloween?”

“We only had 15 kids show up, and their costumes were all pathetic. From now on, I'm costuming too and I'm gonna show all these little puds how it's done!

At least Laurel was cute.”

“we did not have a lot of kids either, but the ones that came had a blast. We had a couple that was so scared (we scared the older kids) they left without the candy. :( Now, I thought that was a little too much.

Cameron and Bryan was looking pretty cool too. Took me forever to paint that mask. I think if you do put on a costum, it better be a good one.”

“We had a great time but too short. I still have about 3/4 of the candy left. Usually there's a steady stream of kids here till after 9:00pm and we have to run out for more goodies. I think the last one tonight was about 7:45.”

“We had lots of kids, but too much candy. Too many laughs at the little kids, best was a tiny moo cow. The older kids were pretty funny too, a couple of mid schoolers with minimal costume eating as they went.


Cute chili pepper!”

“We went through 6 bags of candy in less than an hour. I think they were bussing them in. There were more out and about but we had a party to go to. The costumes were really good and the little tiny ones were adorable. Next year I will definitely have to get more candy!”

“I cleaned up sixteen halloween parties. Fourteen forty gallon bags of trash. I got home to find out my tupperware got stolen. =(”

“It's Halloweeeeen!!




Not any more, it ain't...”

“Nope, it's All Souls Day now.”

“Not many kids -- Reino was telling those that came to take handfuls of candy, but amazingly it took repeated encouragement to get most to take more than one candy bar. The left-overs came to work with me today.

Best costume -- the 10-year-old who came as a TOILET, lol! He is going to be a lot of fun in the future, I bet.”

“Here are Cameron and my father-in-law - can you tell which is Will Smith and which is Tommy Lee Jones?



Now, wouldn't your child be scared if he/she came to our door and got candy from this guy?!

”

“awww, treebait, you guys are too cute! very nice necklace, too.

the cashier gave me some candy at the hardware store we stopped at on the way home. that was about the highlite of my Halloween experience, LOL!”

“...the best treat of the night! Reino needed some white wine for the paella (sp?) she was making for dinner and I had just changed into camo pants, my German commando sweater and a beret, with swagger stick, in order to hand out candy. So off I went to the liquor store. I grabbed three bottles of Aussie wine and came to the counter. The liquor store owner rang 'em up then walked over to another display of Aussie wine, grabbed a bottle of Chardonney, stuck it in my bag and said since I came in costume, he was giving me a treat -- free! Now that beats popcorn balls!”

“J. Frank Parnell and the Sniper are back in the box ands headed for the attic. Nobody knew who Frank was (surprise) but the Sniper...

They loved it or hated it. There was NO 'in-between'!”

“Happy Halloween, you bastards!”

“Hey! U 2, Beeyatch!”

“I should like to wish a happy Hallowe'en to all our Cousins to the South (CttS).









Now I must ask you top turn the page and move on








to the CttS Thanksgiving.”

“How are all you little monsters this morning?”

“i'm in the mood for some BLOOOOOOD!”

“Happy Halllooowwweeeeennnnn!!!”

“Thanks darlin, but I will sure be glad to get this damn pumpkin costume off.”

“I have very sick people here at my job. Im on the telephone with treebeard, when one of the guys walks past my door. the thing is, he has the shortest skirt on and has balloons for breast (think pamala lee here) and when he walked past the door his breast bounched. I about died with laughter.

yup, im in costume as a witch (big strech ah?)
but i love this time of year.

Happy Halllllloweeeen everyone!”

“I'm already Scared to Death!”

“The people at my work are pills. I put on a chicken beak tho for poops and giggles...

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! Little kiddies! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeehehehehhehehehheheh!”

“WwoooooowwwwooooooooowwwwoooooooooOOOO!”

“I'm dressed as me. Now that is scary!”

“Ya, smokywitch!

“GreasyGrimyGopherGuts - blush... blush... ba ba ba ba BAGOCK!!!!

Tonight I am going to wear a sign that says "Eat More Beef." I have a beak, and a feather boa... I can't wait!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!”

“pic's will be up in about 30 mins.”

“I thought about coming to work as a backpacker, but I had to carve a pumpkin last night, so I didn't have time to get my stuff together.

Oh well, maybe next year.”

“I got a 40 lb pumpkin for free, all because someone punched in the stem. I also got a really cool warty pumpkin that nobody wanted. Free stuff rocks!”

“Why couldn't the worlock get the witch pregnant?












He had a holloweenie!!”

“Mrschili came to work as a backpacker.

I showed up as a pissed off director. We got a problem call at 430 this morning.

What a way to start the day.”

“You should have gotten the head off of a mannikin, painted the bottom blood red with little gory bits hanging off, and then carried it around all day today. When people ask you about it, say, "It's the last employee that displeased me."”

“Does anyone know how and where Halloween got started?”

“At least someone would be getting some head today, ey?”

“LYRA.....

L Y R A !!!!!!!!!

“"Does anyone know how and where Halloween got started?"

“The Irish brought the tradition of the Jack O'Lantern to America. But, the original Jack O'Lantern was not a pumpkin.The Jack O'Lantern legend goes back hundreds of years in Irish History. As the story goes, Stingy Jack was a miserable, old drunk who liked to play tricks on everyone: family, friends, his mother and even the Devil himself. One day, he tricked the Devil into climbing up an apple tree. Once the Devil climbed up the apple tree, Stingy Jack hurriedly placed crosses around the trunk of the tree. The Devil was then unable to get down the tree. Stingy Jack made the Devil promise him not to take his soul when he died. Once the devil promised not to take his soul, Stingy Jack removed the crosses and let the Devil down.

Many years later, when Jack finally died, he went to the pearly gates of Heaven and was told by Saint Peter that he was too mean and too cruel and had led a miserable and worthless life on earth. He was not allowed to enter heaven. He then went down to Hell and the Devil. The Devil kept his promise and would not allow him to enter Hell. Now Jack was scared and had nowhere to go but to wander about forever in the darkness between heaven and hell. He asked the Devil how he could leave as there was no light. The Devil tossed him an ember from the flames of Hell to help him light his way. Jack placed the ember in a hollowed out Turnip, one of his favorite foods which he always carried around with him whenever he could steal one. For that day onward, Stingy Jack roamed the earth without a resting place, lighting his way as he went with his "Jack O'Lantern".

On all Hallow's eve, the Irish hollowed out Turnips, rutabagas, gourds, potatoes and beets. They placed a light in them to ward off evil spirits and keep Stingy Jack away. These were the original Jack O'Lanterns. In the 1800's a couple of waves of Irish immigrants came to America. The Irish immigrants quickly discovered that Pumpkins were bigger and easier to carve out. So they used pumpkins for Jack O'Lanterns.”
