My fav time of year!!!!!!!!..............................more pics please...

[Jim Bremner]

When I was in my late 20's I lived in a blue collar neighborhood that was about 5 miles from "the HOOD" My house was 6 doors down from a park that would have a halloween shindig every year.

We would give out around 13 pounds of candy, 1/2 a box of dog biscuits and a tray of icecubes every year.

The LARGEST bowl that I gave candy out of was loaded in this fashion. Dog treats on the bottom. GOOD candy for the neighbors kids next. fun size candy bars on top of that and NASTY cheap candy on top of everything. The front door would be used to block the veiw of the bowl of ice cubes.


If a neighbor kid came up you would just palm down to the good stuff. If there was a person tricker treating with their dog while junior ran up to the door I would give them a candy + a dog treat handed to them

If a kid who would look at the load on top and say "ain't you got no snickers!" I would palm a dog biscuit reach into their bag so that they couldn't see me dropping the dog biscuit into their bab. NOW! Wait for it why a tray of ice cubes? Well it was only used a few times but if the kid was a brat with out manners and was using a paper bag for his trick or treat bag....... He would get an ice cube! The bag would burst in 1/2 a block

My kind of guy. But, I just lock down anymore. I don't understand the kids being dropped off on the larger blvd behind me only to invade the neighborhood. More like farm it.

I've never seen a trick or treater look like the pics above.

Just in case you have forgotten the rules for a safe and Happy Halloween.

1. When it appears that you have killed the monster, NEVER check to see if it's really dead.

2. Never read a book of demon summoning aloud, even as a joke.

3. Do not search the basement, especially if the power has gone out.

4. If your children speak to you in Latin or any other language which they should not know, shoot them immediately. It will save you a lot of grief in the long run. However, it will probably take several rounds to kill them, so be prepared. This also applies to kids who speak with somebody else's voice.

5. When you have the benefit of numbers, NEVER pair off and go it alone.

6. As a general rule, don't solve puzzles that open portals to Hell.

7. Never stand in, on, or above a grave, tomb, or crypt. This would apply to any other house of the dead as well.

8. If you're searching for something which caused a loud noise and find out that it's just the cat, GET THE HE11 OUT!

9. If appliances start operating by themselves, do not check for short circuits; just get out!

10. Do not take ANYTHING from the dead.

11. If you find a town which looks deserted, there's probably a good reason for it. Don't stop and look around!

12. Don't fool with recombinant DNA technology unless you're sure you know what you're doing. And even if you're sure you know what you're doing, just don't fool with it!

13. If you're running from the monster, expect to trip or fall down at least twice. Also note that, despite the fact that you are running and the monster is merely shambling along, it's still moving fast enough to catch up with you.

14. If your companions suddenly begin to exhibit uncharacteristic behavior such as hissing, fascination for blood, glowing eyes, increasing hairiness, and so on, kill them immediately.

15. Stay away from certain geographical locations, some of which are listed here: Amityville, Elm Street, Transylvania, Nilbog (you're in trouble if you recognize this one), the Bermuda Triangle, or any small town in Maine.

16. If your car runs out of gas at night on a lonely road, do not go to the nearby deserted looking house to phone for help. If you think that it is strange because you thought you had half of a tank, shoot yourself instead. You are going to die anyway, and most likely be eaten.

17. If you find that your house is built upon a cemetery, now is the time to move in with the in-laws. This applies to houses that had previous inhabitants who went mad or died in some horrible fashion, or had inhabitants who performed satanic practices in your house.

PLEASE - BE SAFE OUT THERE (and please update this list as necessary!)
