Halloween--go or no go for tonight?

[88GT]

I still don't know whether to take the kids out or not. This crap is ridiculous.

 

[sartwell]

I'm glad my kids are old enough now they stay home and pass out the treats, then they keep the left overs.

Think of it as Bug Out training for when the SHTF. You never know what the weather will be when you are forced to leave your house but if you go out tonight you will know what to expect from your little gremlins if you have to leave your home with them on a dark, wet night and go begging for food.

Bonus Training, you can have them watch out for zombies.

Double Bonus, people will be handing out candy by the handful since the Trick or Treat crowd will be pretty sparse as many parents assume their children will melt in the rain.

The only caution would be if you are a witch you may want to stay in so you don't melt.

Where I live it's on for Friday.

In Franklin it's changed to Friday. Go to WISH TV they have most areas listed

 

[printcraft]

Kokomo is friday.

My kid is going as a "creeper". We made his costume. Lookup Minecraft for reference.

Same thing, my wife's birthday is today.

Happy birthday to your daughter!

I got an email "for immediate news release" from the IDHS & MCDPS yesterday evening saying that trick or treat for tonight was canceled till Friday. I think its funny how we have govt controlling holloween now.

i bet if you took your kids out around town in the car you'd find lots of people who didn't know it was cancelled so they'd be generous with the candy

 

[Fishersjohn48]

You can go tonight if you want but don't expect to find many houses handing out candy. It seems that most of the "tri state area" has "officially" postponed it till Friday.

I know we will not be answering the door tonight. Well, alright, "I" will not be answering the door because the wife works tonight and I don't feel like putting up with 2 nights of that crap.....Bahhhhh Humbug!

 

[Birds Away]

I'm very confused. Do I pull the curtains and shut off the lights tonight or tomorrow?

 

[Trigger Time]

I'm gonna go out and drive around in an old beat up van I just got a great deal on. It already says "free candy" on the side. Has shag carpet in the back with a mattress. The old lady I bought it off of said her son Had to go away for a while and wouldn't be needing it. It was a steal. One of the tail lights was busted but I found a roll of duct tape inside the van and fixed it.








but seriously
watch out for the sickos and teach your kids to not go inside houses or cars.

Right after we moved to the town we live in now I had a big silver bowl full of candy. The light on the porch was on but no one came. I realized that cause of the trees in the yard they couldn't see the light. So I put the leash on the dog and walked downtown with my dog and bowl of candy. I only thought of it when I got home how creepy I must have appeared. Someone no one knows, with a puppy and a bowl of candy walking around town.

I suppose everybody is going to acquiesce to the "postponement" of Halloween too. This is so freaking ridiculous.

... She's 27 today and what she wants to do is hand out candy to kids in costume. Is her birthday cancelled?

So... will she be in costume?

Or handing out candy to costumed kids?

Wussies. When I was a kid, we had to crawl out of the bomb shelter into the darkness and dodge nazi bombs to get our Halloween candy.
