Yeah I wasn't sure if you were serious or not. It didn't seem to be characteristic of you to be serious.

I had a total of 1 kid come in 4 hours!

Sunnyside seems to be a low in halloween, Or maybe the kids are scared of me.

We had around 60-70 kids come by tonight. Started at around 5:30, finished by 8:00. We had probably double the number of kids this year, but there are also a lot more houses in the neighborhood this year. Lots of Spidermen, as well.

LOL about the candy portions - I noticed that too. They charge more and you get less. Gotta love it. Just as well - too many left-overs. ^_^

Got in a brawl outside a Kingston nightclub. First year law students versus some crazy drunk guys who resembled a rugby team. Costumed fistfights. Arrests and stretchers (not for me). Good times!

Just go to a store and buy a bag tomorrow if you really want candy. Actually I just found a great pumpkin pie recipe so I think I am going to pick up a few pumpkins tomorrow boil them down into the paste stuff, and well be able to have a years supply of pumpkin pies.

Well, my buddy turned 18 today, 31st, and we went paintballing. Great fun, I shot tons of people, only got shot 2 times in 2 hours, and mercied once, MB.

After we went to the Kilt & Caber, nice little bar in McKenzie Towne, not to loud, but not a boring place either. We had some food, played some pool, bet some money, drank some beer, had a Prairie fire with the waitress, great fun. Man I love Halloween.

Then when I finished the course (I had a week to do the entire thing, athabasca course, couple with an admin class I did two weeks prior) I felt oblidged to go out and make myself ill. The roadhouse was packed! Lots of skanky outfits to look at, I feel ill now though.. and have remorse..

Cool, which field did you go to for that?


My weekend/halloween consisted of reading tons of boring material for midterms. Let the roomate handle the kids (only got about 20), then I ate the leftover candy while she was sleeping.

Yeah, we're in Sunnyside too, and we had maybe a dozen kids come by. Pretty boring.

We had a WEAK turnout this year, something like 12 kids total. I live in anneighbourhood that is filled with the little bas**rds, so I went out and bought like $50 worth of candy. I spent the better part of 2hrs making bags stuffed with candy and snowboard stickers, so the kids that came got about 30 pieces of candy and 4 stickers each.

If anyone wants any let me know.... It's all in a bowl at my front door tempting my dog :P

I'm in Miami so I went down to South Beach. There were lots of girls wearing next to nothing. I saw some pretty crazy costumes. And I saw Dennis Rodman and Ashlee Simpson (not together). It was weird being in 30C+ weather for Haloween, walking around in a t-shirt.
