Today is Halloween, and to me that means… well, nothing, really. Tomorrow it means half-price bulk candy at the local CVS, but that’s about it.
Nevertheless, I wanted to draw everyone’s attention to a couple Halloween related articles out there.
First, you know how you hear every year about strangers poisoning little kids who come around trick or treating? Actually, you don’t, because it never happens. Occasionally foreign objects will turn up in candy, but that’s different and some could possibly be a side-effect of a failure in the manufacturing process.
Second, Wicca. God, Wicca annoys me. To many Wiccans today is a holy day (though were I religious I think I’d believe either all days to be holy or none), and apparently something of an organizational nightmare.
I work tonight so no worries about me having to deal with kids coming around begging for candy. That kind of disapoints me because I like seeing the costumes, but I suspect I’ll deal, and save all my celebrating fun for 5 November!
