Happy Halloween!

It's the 31st of October y'all. That means that the little (and not so little) ones across the country are girding their loins for the battle of the candy corn. Well, maybe not candy corn because, honestly, who really enjoys candy corn. It ranks right up there with circus peanuts. Yuck. Back to the subject at hand...

So everyone under the age of 18 (or so) has scoured the stores and websites to find the right costume in which to panhandle for candy. Mine are going as a pink Power Ranger (oh, the horror!) and a cheetah (or leopard, or some other big cat as advertised on the plastic package). Not to be confused with the skankadelic costumes available for girls above the age of 4. Have you seen some of these costumes? Yikes. They're the type of costumes that your child can trick or treat in and then head straight to the strip club. Someone's gotta make the cash to pay for them right? Oy! Anyway, every man, woman and child should be out in full force this evening grabbing all the Reese's, Hershey's and M&M's they can handle. Tis the American Way! Be sure to watch for little ones darting across the streets in search of the elusive full-size candy bar.

Let the sugar rush begin at life.sa.laugh@hotmail.com.
