Hey Everyone:

and, a piece about betting on the ponies, California Style:

Thanks for reading and have a good week!

Thomas

A woman was saved from burning to death by trick or treaters over here. They sort of acted as a kind of free neighbourhood watch.
I bet there are less burglaries on Halloween, too.
I like it. How often to you get to meet the people in your community? And how exciting must it be roaming the streets at night dressed like a monster?
And at least, unlike bonfire night, which is celebrating someone's death, less animals get terrified and people get less annoyed by five days of explosives going off...

I think if I were in America I'd hate Hallowe'en too, because it's so over-done, pushed by capitalism to excess and made corporate and mandatory until the charm is gone from it.

It's getting a bit like that over here, but less so I think.

I still love it, and I'm 41 years old. My Hallowe'en viewing this year:

DIARY OF THE DEAD (which gets better every time)
DEAD SILENCE
ROOM 237

We watched FRANKENSTEIN and SON OF FRANKENSTEIN! So I wasn't completely Hallow-deprived.
