Jack O. Lantern

My favorite day/night is right around the haunted corner. Unfortunately, it isn’t too big here – not a single spider web or candy corn. Remember the house on Champlain that used to give out cans of Pepsi?!? It was like instant fuel to continue roaming the streets of Richardson Park, Woodcrest, and into Middleboro Manor! No skeletons or skittles here! Not even a pumpkin or a blumpkin.

BUT, I am going to have a special evening of classes on Wednesday and plan to tell the students all about it (and maybe put a little Fright(land) into them). If you have any ideas on what I can talk about, please let me know! I plan to do a few games, ghost stories, etc to try to thrill them.

Also, I’d like to channel my Wilmington Halloween Loop and throw together a costume – just stuck (and yes I’ve thought about Borat)... It will come to me at the last minute, I’m sure. You see, you can’t really do plays on words like ‘cereal killer’ or celebrities like Elvis because it may go right over their heads, so I don’t know…

3 things I do know:
-Don’t even think about hitting my house on Mischief Night – it’s toilet paper-proof!
-Reese’s Peanut Butter cups are still a worthy Halloween candy (come on! The package is even orange!)
-Halloween is a perfect opportunity to act up, act out, and act the fool!
Check for Razor Blades!

Have them all dress in orange jumpsuits and coreograph them to dance to Thriller holding homemade jack-o-lanterns filled with candy. The Bomb!

We went to a Halloween party on Saturday, Dennis and I dressed up as Elvis and Priscilla. There were some great comstumes. One guy was dressed up as a fairy and his shirt said Stanton Island--HA HA very creative. There were a couple guys with shaved heads dressed up as girls--Britney Spears. A pot leaf, the Lucky Charms elf, batman, and flavor flav. I am sure there will be some interesting costumes wondering around The Run on Halloween.
