    I dress as a Cop on Halloween, at least if it falls on a week day! We're allowed to wear our costumes at work.

    Used to have this really scarey life like mask. It wasn't anything weird, just a really evil lookin' old man. It fit perfectly and you coulnd't even hardly tell it was a mask. For some reason it really freaked people out (even adults) when I'd put it on.

    I used to hide behind the door on Halloween while the wife was givin' out candy and I'd slowly stand up and pull the curtain aside. That'd usually get a pretty good scream from the kids. One time though, there was this kid who came up with his Dad. He was all decked out in some power ranger gig. He was totally into it...just all geeked up. So he comes up, "Trick or Treat!", and I do my thing. Next thing I knew all hell broke loose!

    First thing the kid does is freeze, eyes wide open like big AA sized hard boiled eggs. Then he screams sumthin' while at the same time doing some kind of power ranger kung-fu move with his fake sword. Wow, that was pretty good, I thought to myself, but then he went completely off the rails. He lets out this ear shattering scream, leaps off the porch and takes off running out into the yard. He runs over to a tree in the yard and grabs a hold of it like he's gonna' strangle it, squatting rapidly up and down and starts making this really loud grunting sound. I'm thinkin' WTH???

    After the tree episode he's still not done yet. By this time Dad is now in hot pursuit of crazed kung-fu power ranger dude. The kid lets go of the tree, lets out this...I don't know what to call it, wailing, warbling, hyeena kind of sound at about 800 decibels, then streaks off into the woods and disappears into the darkness. Can't see him anymore but you could dang sure hear this kid! I mean seriously, critters were coming out of the woods with their hair standing on end like "What the #### was THAT????"

    Next thing I know Dad is snapping branches through the darnkness and cussing out in the woods, calling for his semi-humanoid-child. By this time the wife is busy cussin' me out tellin' me to take off the mask and quit scarin' the kids.

    After I got done laughin' I figgered I better go help this dude reel in junior. Turns out 'junior' was wound just a little too tight, hadn't taken all of his meds and had been eatin' way, way, too much candy. He was a 60 lb time bomb just waiting to go off. After Dad had captured the wild and crazed creature I had to ask, what the heck was the deal with the tree??

    <can't even hardly type I'm laughin' so hard remembering this!> Well, apparently the tree episode was little ninja power ranger kung-fu dude wildly crappin' his britches. He apparently crapped so hard he even filled up not only his suit but also his power ranger boots. I guess he was just holding on to the tree for leverage or something (must be a power ranger thing). Then he bolted off into the wild!

    Dad wasn't real happy about the whole episode. I kinda felt bad a little (in between snickerin').

    [:D][:D]




    WOW!!! That is SO funny! [:D]

    I usually drink beer on the front porch and yell

    'hey, you kids get out of my lawn!!!'

    It scares some away, but most just come on up anyhow...

    If it rains, we'll get about 50.
    No rain, cold and windy, probably 150.

    Above 55 degrees and bright from the almost? full moon?

    No telling. I'm prepped for 250. Then I'm turning off the lights.

    ..To be honest, we haven't had trick or treaters in 20 years, except for the grandkids. I think the parents are scared of me. Kids can score so much more by going house to house in town.

    ..I was four years old in 1960 when my older sisters dressed me as Little Red Riding Hood. Both of them were here last weekend and of course they had to dig up Mom's photo album. I'm scarred for life.

    Dress up every year. I volunteer with the county parks and rec department to build and act in their haunted house. It is a real hoot. Try it sometime. Their deal is that if you volunteer, you can get dibs on any part of the building to run. You provide a shopping list of materials and costume items, which they purchase, then you build your room(s), decorate and rig the special effects, and then act in them for the few nights they are open. It is MUCH funner than trick or treating. I got my own kids involved way back when they were in elementary school. They agreed that this was far superior to the T&T experience. [:D]

    The police were across the street 30 minutes ago.
    I grabbed the bowl of candy and walked over, told them they had the best costumes I've seen.
    They both looked about 15 years old.[:)]
    Damn, cops and doctors keep getting younger!
    Me, I wear a hooded cape when I hand out the candy.
