Halloweird

Wow...What a day....I'm drained. Let me back up....When I grew up my Brother & I (along with friends) Parents with other Parents did the Trick or Treat thing after the sun set. We schlepped around the hood with our candy baskets and wearing the costumes. It was fun back then. Today the world's stupidest Parents ever are dragging their little goblins around in a MALL at {{{{{{ARE YOU READY FOR THIS}}}}}}??????????? 10 am in the morning! I work in a major regional mall & did not arrive to my store until after noon.....but the staff told me shocking news. At 10am they were walking them in to get candy. I don't get their point about how un-safe it is in their own neighborhood. Where do they live? Baghdad Iraq? They don't know a few nice neighbors that would not think of inserting razor blades in the candy apples? So they drive to a stupid mall and walk into Gaps & Pottery Barns? Ok....so they bring them at night....but by 1pm today the shopping center sounded like the worlds largest day care center! It is just not natural to Trick or Treat in a big mall. The weather in Oregon has been off the charts GREAT.....No rain lately, no ice cold weather.....Tonight is the ultimate Halloween evening. These kids should be smelling the fresh air and ringing door bells of neighbors that can be trusted. I understand not allowing kids to be let loose running around at night with their buddies......but for gods sake.....GO WITH THEM......IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD.......Not in a

mall. It just isn't a good taste of Americana. Another thing that pisses me off are ADULTS that trick or treat. The doorbell rings and there stands two or more 6 foot adults. They should be sent to Bush's torture center in Cuba. That will teach em!
