Heh. Where I live there are no children. You don't find senior citizens
going door to door begging for candy. John did carve a classic Halloween
cat image in the pumpkin I bought Lit inside with a tea candle, it
looked very cool from the street

When I still lived in TN there weren't any trick or treaters, either. There
were kids in the apartment complex and across the street in neighboring
duplexes. Parents took their kds to organized events at school rather than
let them go door to door. It's a shame, but they're right not to let kids
go door to door these days.
