Sounds like good times. Every family has a crazy uncle. I guess I'm probably the crazy uncle in mine.

amen to that, brother! i love being the crazy uncle! vodstok, stingy, yall sent me way back with the games. me and my brother and friends would stay up all night playing d&d, and call of cthulhu. loved those games. ive got that dragon magazine also. kept a subscription for 2-3 years. the best thing to do to kids is to get a scare crow costume, put a forty watt bulp in your porch light, and sit on the porch in a chair with a big cauldron of candy beside you, or in your lap. then when they try to steal the candy, scare the shit out of them.

I used to watch the moon on Halloween night, hoping to catch a glimpse of a witch on her broom. I expected SOMETHING truly scary to happen ... maybe see a ghost or a skeleton out and about in a graveyard, or see something ghastly in the window of that abandoned house on the corner ... but I never did. I was let down, year after year.

You've never lived in Detroit, have you?

no doubt, i'm still waiting for survivor:New Orleans, ninth ward.

[Tubalcain]

im sorry, for those who dont know what i'm talking about, 5th, 7th, and 9th ward in n.o. is the souths version of vietnam or iraq. people get murdered every day of the year there, in an area no bigger than maybe 3-4 square miles. for the longest time it was the murder capitol of the u.s. per capita. what i think would be funny would be to take about 20 people, drop them off at, say, 8:00pm, dead center of ninth ward, and whoever walks out gets 1 mill.

Talking about Christmas in the Salem thread made me think about Halloween ... and how I was always disappointed in it as a kid.

Unlike Christmas, Halloween never seemed to live up to itself. You spend the whole month watching scary movies, seeing people put frightening things out on their doorsteps, all leading up to the magical night that is Halloween ...

and then, you get some candy and go home. And it's over.

When I was a kid, I used to watch the moon on Halloween night, hoping to catch a glimpse of a witch on her broom. I expected SOMETHING truly scary to happen ... maybe see a ghost or a skeleton out and about in a graveyard, or see something ghastly in the window of that abandoned house on the corner ... but I never did. I was let down, year after year.

Even on Christmas, the parents put out the presents to at least provide SOME evidence that Santa Claus is real and there truly is something magical about Christmas. But they do nothing for the kids like this on Halloween.

Which is why I have decided that on Halloween night, every year until the year I die, I'm going to make it my duty to scare the explosive shits out of some kid.

i loved halloween as a kid,i love it as an adult.the methods have changed but the spirit remains the same.that is to say "the magic we'll never die".....you gotta remember that halloween's a pagen holliday and while the west has done it's best to candy-coat it will never be as widely embraced as christmas.


...damn you are the king of the long post!:D

Lol, no. When I say "something ghastly in the window of that abandoned house on the corner", I don't mean a crack addict.

I grew up in a small Canadian town ... and I still think it was the perfect town to grow up in. You could walk down the sidewalks and trick or treat at every house in the town (not so today, where I live).

i love hallowwen, especialy since right after is my bday (nov 2). decorations r cool as shit, but our neigborhood hasnt changed in a while and everyones grown up. everyone is fullasticks in their asses talkin bout 'arent ut oo old to be trick or treating ' and its ALWAYS the peopel giving out the cheap ass candy.

so we have like NO trick or treaters ever which suck cuz its so boring. nothin happening, not lively at ALL. whereas at my friends, or cousins neighborhood theres hella kids, hella decorations etc etc
