My nephews have something called "Trunk Night" at their school.

Parents decorate the trunks of their cars and give out candy to the kids.  It's a fun and safe way for the kids to go trick-or-treating.  I have fun decorating the car.

I might "dress up" this year.  Let my beard grow out for two weeks and I can easily pass for Michael Moore!   ;D  :P
Now THAT'S one scary monster!

LOL, That's too funny. Ironicly, I'm growing a Beard also. I have tried in the past, But the Cherokee Blood, and the Itching always made me stop after a few days. But It's been about 2 weeks now, And It's finaly coming in Pretty Even. Hell, I'm just Jealouse of Sethan and Capt. Mike.

Seriously the Trunk Night sounds like a fantastic idea. I think I'll call some of the local schools and suggest just this to them. That's a wonderfull idea.

I dont celebrate Halloween. Most I do is keep a little candy for my nieces. My nephew is too old to trick or treat.

I'm not much for Halloween myself.  The wife and kids like getting dressed up though.  Well, maybe I should say wife and son since my 14 year-old daughter is much too cool to put on a costume.  :)  I think the wife was talking about having a Halloween party at the house for some of the neighborhood kids.  Give them something to do other than trick-or-treat.

Same old, same old.

She will take the boy trick or treating during the day, and drag me off to a party at night, and my costume will be what it always is, my old fatigues.

I figure I'll set up a series of ambush points to where I can steal candy from the kiddies. Unfortunately, my efforts last year resulting in the neighborhood children putting their lunch money together and buying a Bradley fighting vehicle.

::sigh::

Which will be a problem once they are old enough to drive.

Halloween.

step 1:  Buy candy.

step 2:  Hand out candy to children and teenagers that still think they're children*

step 2a:  Eat candy.

step 3: buy more candy.

step 4:  Eat more candy.

step 5:  Candy candy candy.

*assuming it isn't too cold by this day to go outside.  It's a fifty-fifty chance these past few years, even though the winter on adverage is so warm I wouldn't call it winter anymore.

This is going to be first Halloween at college so it should prove interesting.  Expect a full after-action report on 11/1 or 11/2.

More than likely the family and I will go to my dad's place and go ToT and/or hand out (eat) candy.  Justin (my eldest) want's to go as a grunt since I found a set of his dad's BDUs.  Robert (the youngest) is going as a ninja.  Don't know what Ferret wants to be if anything but I usually go as a Dominatrix or a Witch.  It's fun and the kids have a blast.  I love seeing the little ones in their cute costumes and scareing the older kids is a blast.  Maybe I'll hang Ferret up . . .
