The religion of environmentalism is everywhere.  And they want to make sure the indoctrination is done at the youngest possible age.  I have a feeling the kids who get the organic goodies will trade them away or throw them away. 

When I was a kid, my best friend's dad was a dentist and he used to give out little toothbrushes and tiny tubes of toothpaste to trick or treaters.  Of course they didn't give out many as the kids usually skipped that house once they became known in the neighborhood for those non-traditional goodies.

I can just see the kids leaving her house.  "What is this crap?"  asks Jimmy.

"Dunno, looks like treebark and rabbit droppings.  Taste like it too!" Johnny replied.

"Johnny, let's TP this house, for sure."

"Yeah, okay.  I'll go home and get some earth friendly toilet paper."

"Great!" Jimmy replied, "Don't forget the organic eggs." 

“But maybe you obviously have a better memory about that."- Wolf Blitzer

We generally stayed away from the pennies and apples that some folks passed out. Candy and popcorn balls were kings.

If my kid comes home with some arugula in his bag, someones going to pay!

  What the hell is wrong with these people?

   Everything is recyclable. Putting something in a garbage dump is saving it for some future race that happens upon it 2 million years from now. Or 100 years from now when it is more expensive to pump up a little oil than it is to dig up a garbage pit.

  The only things that are not recyclable are the satellites we sent beyond the solar system, the rovers on mars, and that american flag on the moon! No one is complaining about those things are they?

  What is this insane crap about impacting the earth? Everything is made from the elements found on the earth. We rub them together, heat them up, pour a little bleach, BAM, new molecule. We put it in a pit with other garbage, it ages out and breaks down to the orginal elements. SOMEBODY MY GOD PUT A STOP TO THIS!

  What exactly do you think happens to those organic chocolates. They disappear down your rotten kids pieholes and explain to me how THAT is not a one time use. Do you collect their poop and use it to paint the basement?  That, now that is recycling organic chocolate my friend.

And that 5 million dollars, it did not just disappear, it moved to other hands to be spent on something else. God, you people are brainless stupid stupid...ow where is the motrin?

5 Dazes after halloween, this year we shall hear this:

President-elect 0bama.

halloween in 2009 will be #1..

I'm too far in the sticks for any trick AND treaters!

When i was a kid me and my friend would walk for miles and collect a shopping bag full...

Today the kids are driven around, and are never out of sight of the drivers.

CLIMATE CRISIS

0bama will stab Israel in the back, to sit down with his protege, Ackdinnerjacket, yea he can talk with this guy..sample below.

This makes me want to hang some antlers on the door and hand out large frozen t-bones. A line really should be drawn (by law if necessary) when it comes to children. They don’t have the experience to measure against the irrational politics of liberals which is why they go after the kids in the first place.

Although we can't afford to do the chocolate thing, we go for quantity - handfuls of Willy Wonka and Tootsie Rolls - always favorites. I personally like banana Laffy Taffy and Tootsie Rolls. Most candy bars are milk chocolate - yuck! 70% dark chocolate for me please.

BTW, the razorblade in the apply story is a myth. I think it happened one time. Who wants apples in their bag anyway? Popcorn balls sure were good though. No one makes them anymore :(

Far too many helicopter parents these days take their kid to the mall instead of letting them Trick-or-Treat in the neighborhood. Other lame parents DRIVE their kids house to house. Then we have the local fundamentalist church that thinks that Halloween is a devil-worshiping holiday (do they not even know the history of Christianity?) and have a house of horror that includes botched abortions and kids dead from drugs. I bet that's a barrel of fun!

A big part of the fun is running around the streets at night.

They had a big push for that here, called it HallowGREEN.  Supposedly you were supposed to use green ribbons to mark that you were eco-friendly.  

When one of the presenters for the HallowGREEN mentioned the green ribbon part I said rather loudly, "At least they're making it easy to see which houses to skip."  It got a few laughs from the people listening but a nasty stare from the presenter.

Thomas Jefferson once said, 'We should never judge a president by his age, only by his works.' And ever since he told me that, I stopped worrying. - Ronald Reagan

I wonder how much Belger's getting paid for the product placements in her column???? Maybe she gets free samples for plugging them. She can have them all.

Personally, I'd pass out the mini version of 3 Musketeers new mint flavor bars, but I live in a Seniors community and the kids don't come here.

Oh, well, I guess I'll just do my share to stimulate the economy by buying a couple of bags of them, anyway [they're sooo good when they're cold].

I hear that arugula is the new popcorn ball.

When you put the clowns in charge, don't be surprised when a circus breaks out.

to mess with these people's mind, what little they have. All day today I have been eating chocolate, Reese's peanut butter cups and running with scissors. Tomorrow Im going to dig out my old Red Rider BB gun and see if I can't put something's or somebody's eye out.
