I don't have a horse or one eye but I do have a big ole chip on one tooth and lots of my friends in other Online areas call me Cy. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

I am really fighting the urge to moving this topic or even better deleting it. But I guess if spam posting is ok with the others, then I will just have to live with it.

oh, come on. what's wrong with a thread on pumpkins on halloween?

[Atrocities]

Nothing really, I just want to delete or move something. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

To many kids knocking at my door, who could it be now..... oh its Pumkin head here to take me away.

[narf poit chez BOOM]

besides which, i might mention that OT serious Posts outnumber OT funny Posts, and technically, all OT is spam. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

take that, Fyron.

anyway, my brother went as a troll. he did this multi-eyed multi-mouthed weird pumpkin. much better than mine. i just did a quick cyclops while laughing crazily and doing a mad docter impression. but as far as pumpkin quality, he wins. there's firecracker's going off all over.

you know, Atrocities, i could make you a thread to move around. call it Atrocities blue rubber dingly ball. i'd call it Atrocities red rubber dingly ball but Katchoo's already got a red one. it's not a thread though. you could bat it around the shrapnel forums.

Oh. And my little sister moved to San Antonio for a new job.
All of that happened on the day of Halloween.
Hrmm... I think that is about it.

despite my initial post, this is not a nonsense thread. it has an actual, concrete topic that can be talked about. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

Hrmm... one of my pet hermit crabs changed his shell. Does that count?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">scary things happen on halloween...moving and a new job...i might get one of those soon.

I took some kids from my street out for the night while all the other parents handed candy out on my street.

After about 45 minutes and driving all over the better part of my town, I gave up and took them all home. I think in the whole town, maybe twenty people had setup for trick-or-treat and that was at 6:30pm!

[Instar]

Well, after the ritual goat sacrifice... er, something...

[Taera]

i went trick or treating. so what if im 17, it was fun http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Erax]

Trick or treating is relatively new down here and besides we didn't stay home, so I don't know if any kids came around. We went to a party where we met a bunch of people my wife knew from way back when.

Took the wrapping off Galactic Civilizations but didn't install. Oooh scary!

I went as a parent of a two year old, and had the two year old to prove it! hehe

Took my son to the same place we went Last year. The only memorial thing that happened was that we approached a house with no lights on, and there was a figure dressed in black and had a Scream mask on sitting on the porch. My wife and I were debating whether to go to the door or not when the figure stood up http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif !! It scared the you know what out of my son, and he started bawling. The guy took his mask off to prove he was human, and my son finally went to him and got some candy. We went home shortly after that.

Went to an SCA (http://www.sca.org) party (not sanctioned, nor an official event, but around here (http://www.dragonsspine.org/index.htm) the SCA folk throw particular kinds of parties).

Inebriated debauchery was my goal and I got over halfway there.

Fell asleep around 2300, I think (I am usually dry and was also in ketosis (http://www.survivediabetes.com/ketosis.htm) before the alcohol).

Woke up around 0130, party still going.

Hung out with the people who were still up.

Transitioned one-by-one and two-by-two into hanging out with the people who were getting up.

Argued politics with zealous liberals without making any enemies from around 0800 - 1200.

Went home and had a fine day.

Wait, I just remembered something that happened over the weekend. I played games with friends on Saturday, then left with some of them to have dinner. On the way, we passed a toy store that had this huge Frankenstein monster's head in the window - the classic Hollywood Version, with green skin and bolts coming out of its neck. Except that there was something oddly familiar about it... I went back and took a long look, and there it was.

It had George W. Bush's face. Weird. I wish I had a camera with me.
