Trick and treating

Oh I so completely agree that we just aren't doing our job as a community until we completely smash all the fun from childhood.

It takes a village to raise a smart, joyless, cavity free kid!

They won't be visiting your house next year!

i dont know... i would have liked to have gotten those when i trick or treated

thanks!

Badboy, I admire your desire to educate the trick and
treaters but did you forget to tell us in your post that
you wrapped your science pamphlet around a nice big
candy bar?

My wife and I don't go out to eat as much lately due to
diet restrictions so she takes the $40 or $50 we save in
a month and bought regular 75¢ candy bars instead of
the dinky size they sell for Halloween.

The looks of sheer delight on the kids that came to our
door was worth a fortune to us. Just going to bed seeing
those smiles made all our petty troubles vanish, at least
for this year !

And as for cavities, my dentist says you can eat candy every
day as LONG as you rinse you mouth out afterward. It's the
residual sugar in the mouth that causes the dentyne caries
(so he says so look it up in the dental journal as I did to find
he was correct).

I offered them an apple and an orange each, and they told me to f*ck off! Next year, I'm definitely going to go to the pub and stay out till last orders.

Good idea GD and don't forget to take Badboy with ya ;-)

The weird thing about this is that I do kind of agree with Badboy about getting kids interested in science. But I really do think his approach will turn more kids away from science than it will to get them interested.

I have this Mad Professor book that has all kinds of fun science experiments for kids. Cooking is also great kid science. Gardening too.

You have to be the biggest dork known to man.

This is also a great idea, especially if you would like your house egged on Halloween.

Are you calling me a dork?

Cause if you are I'm gonna slap your doo hoo.

You? No.

I'm talking about Mr. Wizard here, who hands out science pamphlets on Halloween.

Well okay then.

At least they weren't Christian science pamphlets.

I gave them the NG map`EARTH AT NIGHT'
I can't remember the other items.
