Boy they went all out! I wonder how many days it'll take for them to come down from their "candy high"?  :thinking:

While I was out running around town today, buying bolts and drills, I heard "The Monster Mash" by Bobby Pickett. That song always makes me grin. I had to Google it and see when it was written.--1962. That's a lot of Halloweens ago.---Brian

We bought 4 big bags of candy, and today it rains and is cold.  0 kids came to the door.   :ShakeHead:

So leave some out in the shop as elf bribes...


Pouring rain here too, did see one kid in a giant inflatable Minion costume. At least I think it was a costume...

Bobby Picket tried to follow up with "Me and My Mummy" (copyright 1973). The record label says "Bobby (Boris) Pickett."
