Happy Halloween Open Thread

by Lynne at 4:15 pm.

Have at ye. I’ll be busy most of the weekend, so you’re on your own.

Be nice.

It’s a gorgeous night for tricks and treating, ain’t it? Hope those with kids don’t fail to take them out for the sugar rush. Halloween is a sacred kid holiday. Trick or Treating is from 6pm to 8pm, so for heaven’s sake people, make sure you have lots of candy and leave your porch light on. Make the kiddies happy. (As for me, I am donning a costume in order to give out da goods…why should the kids have all the fun??)

OK, speaking of sugar rush, someone at City Hall has had way too much Halloween candy…this is on the city’s website:

Hehe. Cute.
