Happy Samhain /Halloween!

Sure you don't know what I mean........

Ok, I got some more Halloween jokes...

The door bell, rings, and a man answers it. Here stands this plain but well dressed kid, saying, "Trick or Treat!"

The man asks the kids what he's dressed up like for Halloween. The kid says, "I'm an IRS agent."

Then he takes 30% of the man's candy, leaves, and doesn't say Thank You.
-------------

Two nuns are traveling through Europe in their car. They get to Transylvania and are stopped at a traffic light. Suddenly, a diminutive Dracula jumps onto the hood of the car and scratches at the windshield!

"Quick, quick!!" shouts the first nun "What shall I do?" "Turn the windshield wipers on, that will get rid of the abomination." shouts the second.

The first nun switches them on, knocking Dracula about, but he clings on and hisses even more loudly! "What shall I do now?" shouts the first nun.

"Switch on the windshield washer. I filled it up with Holy Water at the Vatican!" says the second. Dracula screams as the water burns his skin, but he clings on and hisses again at the nuns. "Now what?" screams the first nun. "Show him your cross!" says the second. So the nun rolls down the window and shouts:

"GET OFF MY DAMN HOOD, YOU LITTLE BASTARD!!"
--------------

And now a poem...
It's Halloween! It's Halloween!

The moon is full and bright
And we shall see what can't be seen
On any other night.

Skeletons and ghosts and ghouls,
Grinning goblins fighting duels,
Werewolves rising from their tombs
Witches on their magic brooms.

In masks and gowns
we haunt the street
And knock on doors
for trick or treat.

Tonight we are
the king and queen,
For oh tonight
it's Halloween!
---------------

Ok, I think I'm done now...

It's my little girls first Halloween tonight! I'm so excited...I hope she likes it. I have such fond memories of this holiday from my childhood. I hope I can make some for her! Happy Halloween, all!

Sachmo, hope T&T tonight really is as magical for your daughter as you remember it for you.

We didnt do T&T over here in Blighty when I was a child, I think it started off when I was about 17 and there was no way I was going door to door begging for beer!

It does shock you though, I remember Last year there was a knock on the door and as I was right by the door, I whipped it open before the chaperone for the little T&T'er could get out of the way so I was faced with this 20 year lad standing about 6'5" with more muscles than arnie.. he gave a embarassed grin and moved aside so that his very little sister in devil outfit could be seen... she got sweets, he got a glass of whisky to stand off the night-chill, it did give me a fright though

Thanks, tigga!

And how nice of you to offer the chaperone a shot of the good stuff! I never thought of that, and over here in the US you would probably get sued or something, but it's a nice gesture!

I'm sure I have no idea what you are talking about. Besides it is all Fyron's fault. He is the one that turned me.

[Grumpy Rant]You and Fyron and everybody else with these stupid "vampire" links with all their stupid popups, and their stupid popups that open other popups when you close them, and their stupid popups with no close buttons, and their stupid popups that try to trick me into chaging my homepage to some stupid website can BITE ME![/Grumpy Rant]

Oh, and Happy Halloween. My youngest daughter's first trick or treat is tonight as well.

Well, in the hallowed environs of Knutsford Cheshire, it is a bit of a tradition to have a bottle of the 'good stuff' lurking by the front door next to the big bowl of sweets. As a lot of the chaperones are neighbours or friends, it seems churlish not to share nature's bounty with them. The trouble is that some of the dad's have a tendency to come back sloshed after doing the rounds.

The saddest sight was my neighbour having to be half carried home by his two little girls he was in such a state. First time I have seen an adult propped up by a 4'3" vampire and a 3'5" devil

Fyron:

A Protoss for Halloween? *That* would be a pretty cool costume. Unfortunately, only about 0.01% of the populace would have even a chance at understanding it...

In the meantime, go listen to some good Halloween music:
