Great costumes!

We had under 30 kids show last night, about half compared to last year.

We had maybe a dozen. It gets slower and slower every year.

I got flat out blitzed last night  [sm_shock]

My neighbors and I were drinking as we passed out the candy.  I was drinking a Cabernet, Lisa from across the street was drinking a reisling, her boyfriend... some cheap beer in a can  [sm_disgust] ;).  After all the kiddies were done and we're still chatting it up, I decided that one bottle of wine wasn't enough, so I opened the last Oktoberfest in my fridge, followed by an 8% Pumpkin Ale.  We finally broke it up around 10pm, I posted some  :-[ , then reclined on the loveseat to watch some TV.....  and woke up at 1:30am in the same spot  :o.  Feeling it today - ouch  [sm_disgust]  [sm_devil]


Anyway - the kids were great - no 'old' ones without costumes, and plenty of little ones sharing jokes.  The best was a small group of girls with one of them telling a joke to me (which I cannot recall), they all grab the goodies and start to leave, but I could tell the littlest one wanted to say something but was just too shy.  So I stopped them all and asked the little one if she had a joke she wanted to tell.  Shyly, she says 'yes', but doesn't start the joke - LOL.  I gave her the go ahead and this is what I got:

Q: Why was the mathematician so sad?
A: Because he had so many problems.

Its funny when it comes form a shy, cute little girl; trust me.

Another little boy wasn't quite old enough to understand the concept - as I held out the candy bowl, he placed a reese's from his bag into my bowl, and left  :D.  His parents laughed and moved on.  Good times, good times.

Same here but they were all younger kids at least and no stupid teenagers.

Cool.  Nice post.  Why do you hate cheap beer?  ;)

I went out with the BIL, and the kids.  Back pack full of beer, and hit the entire neighborhood.

Karen stayed home, and said we easily had over 80 kids.  The only thing that bugged my last night, was a few platoons of minivans that would stop, and then 4 to 6 kids jump out on roller blades, and pillage and plunder, in front of all the kids, doing it the right way.

We had only a few kids come by. Halloween's not so big here but some kids get into it.

Then I had these two: I asked them if they were dressed as trailer trash, and they said no. The older one said "So are you gonna give us some lollies?" I said "No!, come back next year and make a *goshdarn* effort, see that kid across the street dressed as a ghost, granted it's only a white sheet with two eye holes but at least he's made an effort!"  :o
