After taking my kids trick or treating, I will be doing a dramatic reading of the following poem by James Whitcomb Riley:

Little Orphant Annie's come to our house to stay,
An' wash the cups an' saucers up, an' brush the crumbs away,
An' shoo the chickens off the porch, an' dust the hearth an' sweep,
An' make the fire an' bake the bread, an' earn her board an' keep;
An' all us other childern, when the supper things is done,
We set around the kitchen fire an' have the mostest fun
A-list'nin' to the witch-tales 'at Annie tells about
An' the Gobble-uns 'at git you ef you DON'T WATCH OUT!

Onc't they was a little boy wouldn't say his prayers
So when he went to bed at night awaaayyy up stairs
His mammy heerd him holler. an' his daddy heerd him bawl
An' when they turn't the kivvers down, he wasn't there at all!
An' they seeked him in the rafter-room, an' cubby-hole an' press
An' seeked him up the chimbly-flue, an' ever'wheres I guess;
But all they ever found was thist his pants an' roundabout
An' the Gobble-uns'll git YOU ef you DON'T WATCH OUT!

An' one time a little girl 'ud allus laugh an' grin
An' make fun of ever'one, an' all her blood an' kin,
An' onc't, when they was company an' ole folks was there
She mocked 'em an' shocked 'em, an' said she didn't care!
An' thist as she kicked her heels, an' turn't to run an' hide
They was two great big Black Things a-standin' by her side
An' they snatched her through the ceilin' 'fore she knowed what she's about
An' the Gobble-uns'll git YOU ef you DON'T WATCH OUT!

An' Little Orphant Annie says when the blaze is blue
An' the lamp-wick sputters, an' the wind goes woo-oo,
An' you hear the crickets quit, an' the moon is gray,
An' the lightnin-bugs in dew is all squenched away,
You better mind yer parents and yer teachers fond an' dear
An' churish them 'at loves you, an' dry the orphant's tear,
An' help the pore an' needy ones 'at clusters all about,
Er the Gobble-uns'll git you ef you DON'T WATCH OUT!

Me holding a friend's baby boy - Ryan.

My friend Tyson - I did his Halloween makeup. He worked at Rallys and wanted me to do it so he could go like that into work. He worked the drive-thru window that day handing out hamburgers and french fries.

i can't find the picture of my brother. I had run out of liquid latex - but it turned out cool anyway. I just gave him a bullet hole in the center of the forehead with blood dripping down along his eye socket and his nose.

Telperion · 10-31-2002, 08:10 PM

Wow! That's a neat costume. I'm not doing anything special fro halloween. I have a practice for the marching band I'm in, Calgary Round Up Band. It's not as bad as it looks though, we get to wear our costumes and get candy.

Coney · 10-31-2002, 08:17 PM

I'm back

After nearly being torched by vagrant fireworks, killed by ill-cooked food and nearly drowned by apple-bobbing I can claim that this years Halloween party yet another success

Blessed be folks..........Samhain is not forgotten (thought often miss-represented in it's celebration

)

Dussander · 10-31-2002, 08:30 PM

Well jerseydevil, I'm sure you scared the stinky sh*t out that baby.

Anyway, on a les gruesome note, I spent this evening, with my girlfriend, watching horror flicks. We started at like...around...erm...A long time ago, and I just dropped her off at home like an hour ago.

I do enjoy the Halloween's movies how bout you?

Happy Halloween.

No Ryan didn't mind it. I have my other side of my face normal. I only ever do half - that way I can hide the gruesome part from people that I think might get too scared.

I know Tyson got a bunch of comments - especially considering he was working at a fast food place.

Dussander · 10-31-2002, 08:43 PM

Knowing the the people around here, specifically where I work (they have sticks up there...erm...

) I would have been fired.

Well, at least you are considerate of the little kids. I never was.

cee2lee2 · 10-31-2002, 09:25 PM

A Scary Boo to one and all!

Didn't have much time to decorate this year but I did get the Linus in the pumpkin patch flag out. Gave out treats, but not as many kids this year. We've got way too much candy left over.

katya · 10-31-2002, 10:07 PM

I am back now. My feet hurt. But I had fun. More people came than I expected. It was great. Then near the end of the night we stopped by my house and this guy I like took my piano and I am going to give him lessons.

I got some sweet candy. Sweet as in cool. And the real meaning too. Yeah I ended up being a Russian for Halloween. And a Communist. Good fun...

markedel · 10-31-2002, 11:09 PM

I've been bored-I hate 8:30 classes with a passion. And being under 19 doesn't help matters...

***Tessar*** · 11-01-2002, 02:11 AM

ONLY ONE TRICK-OR-TREATER!!!! LET THE PIGOUT START!!! YEHAWWWWW!!!

Sorry, a little excited by all that candy *does a twisty-spin thing like spider-man and starts bouncing around*

Man, how much suger do those Ress cups HAVE?!?!

**crickhollow** · 11-01-2002, 03:57 AM

mmmm...reeses peanut butter. my fave. Unfortunately for my sweet tooth, party in the penthouse was a big success. The guys below decked out their dorm like a club, and served fugde and rootbeer floats from the bar. I believe I already mentioned my dorm's scary movie night--apparently whoever went to rent the movies got mixed up and came back with Monsters Inc. instead of Alfred Hitchcock. Oh well, monsters--Halloween, there's a connection, right? Yeah, and the girls above us decked out their dorm like a casino, and had cardboard cutouts of the Ocean's Eleven cast (the new movie, *sigh* no Sinatra in sight). Yes, and another of the guy's dorms put together a walkway, and had a Zoolander theme. That has got to be the stupidest movie in the world.
All of this with no alcohol involved.

Lizra · 11-01-2002, 09:21 AM

We did it too! No snow! At the last minute, my son decided to go as an "Army Guy". He has all this stuff in his toys, so he geared up in camo-stuff, hubby painted his face with his hunting make-up. Dean kept stopping, crouching, and firing off his automatic machine gun thing, shouting "SECURE THE AREA!" I thought I'd laugh myself to death! The ghost costume was particularly difficult with bifocals, The sheets kept pulling my glasses up so I was looking out of the reading part trying to see where the steps wear. I scared several little ones tho! Best candy always seems to be the popcorn! One house had several grown ups dressed like swingin goblins, they had this rockabilly spooky songs tape, I hated to leave, the music was so rockin! Fun...

Arathorn · 11-01-2002, 09:40 AM

Halloween's not too big a deal here although people do go to costume parties from time to time. For most people who live in the provinces, it's a chance to catch an early bus ride out of the city go party with their relatives (both the living and the dead ) the next day. The cemetaries all over the country are packed with people playing cards, sprucing up their relative's coffins, niches, mausoleums (sp?).

I personally stay at home and sleep. We go visit dad's grave 3 weeks later which is his birthday.

Sween · 11-01-2002, 10:33 AM

Nice Pic JD somehow that exctally how i pictured you.

Varda Oiolosseo · 11-01-2002, 04:43 PM

I didn't do anything this year as i was ill!!!!
I had got dressed up and everything and was about to go to this massive halloween party in the town centre, they did one last year and it was great, but I was just to ill so I stayed in and watched LOTR! I had a pumpkin in the room to that my sister had done and it looked really weird/evil as her idea had gone wrong so I moved it outside as it was freaking me out to much!! Oh and i spent most of the night trying to get this black face paint off from around my eyes!!!

Radagast The Brown · 11-01-2002, 05:49 PM

What's Hlloween? the holiday with the candey or treek thinks and the costum parties?

[edit] JD explained to me. Thank you.

Claenoic · 11-01-2002, 06:53 PM

Today/Yesterday was my first REAL Halloween

!

I haven't been allowed for a long time, and I've always resorted to passing out candy. But yesterday... yey...

I need to eat one of the many Skittles™ I have... got out late, get the last of the candy

I was wondering, have any of you ever run out of candy at the house and went trick or treating to get more?

Haha! No, that's never happened, but it would be funny if it did. Did you do that?

Y'see, I've been hanging out at a different chatboard called Cardboardia. So far, I've been havin' a blast. Not that I don't love the TLA, but the magic of Entmoot is lost on me. So, as soon as TLA ends, so will my existance here, probably. Who knows though? I might stay. Highly unlikely however. This is a good bye in advance, then.
