With the last run of trick or treaters I opened the door to find five kids and I only had four more candy bars in my bag.
I made a show of carefully putting the four into each of their bags and then with the last (the smallest and most timid) I pretended to pull out another and reached into his bag and flicked my finger down into the candy he actually had.
Then he (unlike the others) thanked me.
And really nicely too.
Now I actually AM going to hell.

Well, you pro shouda given him a $1. Kids like money as well as candy. But he'll never know. Forgiveness is great. We all make judgement errors.
Course you could just be kidding and then I myself have once again taken the world too zeriously. Happy Halloween : D

You're just a brave warrior in the fight against diabetes. Think of the pancreases.

You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch! :-)
Anyway, full marks for trying. I'd have guessed that Toquerville was mostly Mormons, and that they didn't go in for Hallowe'en and such.
Do you meet them at the door with Junior? That would seem a nice touch - a trick instead of a treat.

Junior is asleep, but the geckos are nocturnal (and just got their first meal since I went east).

You're not going to hell, you're already in it, and you don't even know it.

Wednesday morning it was in the thirties while I watched a pair of huge red tail hawks hunting in Central Park.
Today in St. George I was using the AC.

Werner, I agree with you, but really. You should at least allow other's consideration of your ideas rather than stating them as fact, thus disallowing nurturing process that helps deeper understanding.
Oh, well. Whatever.

You're a rotten jew, Ron.
But since you instilled a feeling of happiness and your intentions were good, you'll prolly be forgiven and maybe even blessed...you heathen.
Ya did the right thing..Bluey's guide to the world...bottom line.

Hey you made the best out of a bad situation, but Lynne's idea about the money works. I totally forgot Halloween one year but I had lots of change. The kids loved it. That was the same year my buddy Tim was hangin' with me. Tim is an Airborne Vet from the Nam. A couple of kids rang the doorbell and it was dark inside and out. Tim opens the door real quick and gives this blood-curdling death scream to scare the kids. They jumped out of their skins and two ran and one just froze and started crying. The parent was at the curb and Tim felt real bad and was apologizing profusely. The parent was cool and the kids calmed down but Tim was a little dazzled. I told him he better be careful where he points that thing.
