How did you get to be so talented. Quite a knack for turning everything into perversion.
Sigh....😞

They shouldn't be allowed to do alot of other things also but they still do.

Is that what was creepy? A jerk handing out candy?

I thought you were calling us creepy.

Or throw candy, but it does have a certain comic side to it, if done in the right spirit. I think Frankenstein has a patent on the process.

He wasn't old. He was around 29-35ish. He was making out when we ran the door bell.

It was funny but I don't want to describe the whole thing.

my kids always come home with a few cans of soda. No goose bumps yet though so I guess it's all good.

It wasn't that much colder back then. You said it was -20, yesterday was -15 or so, not that big of a difference.

When did I say that?

Yesterday -15 haha...

Try more like -6 or so. I'm talking 5pm or so, it wasn't cold. Back then it was cold even in the afternoon.

Now the weather is messed up, much warmer. Hardly had a winter last year.

-20 throughout the day. Morning, afternoon, night.

This year it was no where close to -20 in the afternoon. I checked the weather and it was only minus 6.

The weathers isn't even close nowdays compared to several years ago. Even my snow sales are going down.

Anyone want some snow? You pay per the pound and of course for shipping.

Well, in answer to the original poster, yeah, it sure seems like less kids are trick-or-treating. Supposedly 95% of kids in America were supposed to go, but it didn't seem that way to me. I think a lot of parents ferry their children to certain neighborhoods that are nicer and safer, or something...

Places where there aren't any zombies on crack I would assume.

I my small community in Northeastern Ontario, the biggest problem are the teens (I admit I am one myself). Each year, a lot of buildings get egged, kids get attacked and their candy stolen. I have never heard about any problems with the candy.

Just recently, some kids went into a cemetary and knocked over 32 tombstones. They can't be replaced on the block because they are so old. We had a string of arsons in August, mostly grass fires. I mean, there are only 2300 people in this town, but the crime rate is about as bad as Detroit.


As for the weather, it is usually -10°C at night and there has been a snowfall 4 times in the last 5 years.
