Ma always had these when I was a wee lad, she'd make me a cup of weak tea to which I'd add five shots of Carnation canned milk and ten teaspoons of sugar to and with a plate of these it was a feast to a five year old. And as with most things in life either the Boston Bruins or Three Stooges can be tied in with. (May have to activate the volume)

They sell them at Costco I believe

A friend posted a picture of the gigantic Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes display in our local Walmart.

Between the eggnog and those, I'm doomed

Same. Haven't been motivated to vote in years. I really don't see it mattering much anymore. Pols all lie, cheat, break the law, take advantage of tax loopholes. I wouldn't trust them to ring a register at a gas station forget about run my country.

I went to a rehearsal of The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square tonight.

I wasn't expecting the choir to sing a song composed by Charles Thomas Connors. Who? you might ask

It starts - Hello out there, we're on the air
It's 'Hockey Night' tonight

Utah you're going to do just fine in the NHL

I don't care for it ever.

I actually don't mind it but much prefer the soy milk version, it is lighter and quite delicious with enough rum.

It seems we may need some questions for fun. Halloween is fast approaching, so that's the theme.

1) What is the best Halloween costume you ever wore, as a kid or as an adult?

2) Name your favourite Halloween candy and one that you hate.

3) Do you get kids on trick or treat night, how many, what do you give out if you do?

4) Have you ever played tricks on the kids that come?

5) Do you carve a pumpkin, if so, how elaborate? There is nothing so spooky as a lit pumpkin, flickering, on Halloween night!

1. a bunny rabbit. I haven't been to many as an adult but last time went as a witch (myself)

2. Love frozen milky ways. I don't care for candy corn

3. I live in a very safe neighborhood. The first year I moved here I bought 100 candy bars....we had 300 kids because many drive here and drop off their kids.

4 .no

5. My Mom always carved the classic jack-o-lantern. In her honor I do the same. Nothing fancy just the classic.

None I can remember.

2) Name your favourite Halloween candy and one that you hate.

Candy corn hate it. I like Milky Ways.

3) Do you get kids on trick or treat night, how many, what do you give out if you do?

25 or so. Not as many as years ago.

4) Have you ever played tricks on the kids that come?

Nope

5) Do you carve a pumpkin, if so, how elaborate? There is nothing so spooky as a lit pumpkin, flickering, on Halloween night!

Nope. The Bride and kids used to though.

1) I wasn’t much into Halloween after age 9 - I was tall for my age, and one person told me I was too old for Halloween so I stopped participating. I was Darth Vader one year, so that was fun.

2) Reese’s PB cups will always be my favorite, and Good & Plenty my least favorite because I detest licorice flavored things.

3) We don’t get any kids here since we don’t have sidewalks. Now that we have our daughter I need to figure out where to take her when she wants to go.

4) Never been one for tricks, just giving out handfuls of sugary magic.

5) I don’t have pumpkins out because we have an abundance of wildlife here so it wouldn’t last.

Well...knowing you I get it! I know who that middle finger is for

Many years ago, I saw the best costume ever. It was when the Lord of the Rings movies were out, and a young kid was dressed in a Frodo Baggins costume. It was homemade and excellent!

I still had my Frodo Baggins (Maine Coon cat).

1) A 90s yearbook photo in my early 20s

2) Fave is Reese’s. Forever and always. Mounds are trash.

3) We don’t, and I hate it. We live on a really big hill so only the bravest few make the trek. Trunk or treat events have also put a huge damper on neighborhood trick or treating. I love seeing all the little ones dressed up and wished we lived in a better Halloween neighborhood.

4) Nope

5) When I was a kid, we’d always pick out a huge pumpkin and carve it, put it on a table outside with dry ice, play spooky music, the whole bit. 80s and 90s Halloween was the best.

1. As an adult I went to a Halloween party dressed as Leatherface from "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" complete with chain saw & red wood stain all over my clothes.

2. Three Musketeers. Anything with licorice in it

3. No, everyone goes to Halloween parties now.

4. Yes. One year we set up a plastic spider on the storm door, whenever someone opened it to knock it fell down & scared the absolute shit out of them.

5. No.

Pre-ordered this for my daughters 22nd birthday next week. Just wont be delivered for a few weeks. Ill be getting her more tho. Dad has a better job and no longer has an anchor weighing him down and can actually do things for them now.

1) I was a ref with sunglasses and a walking stick aka bling ref, it was a big hit.

2) Nutragious, not sure if they still make it. I don't like any of the hypoallergenic non-chocolate candy

3) We get some but leave early to go to the center of town which has the school, library, fire station. There is a candy drive for the houses in the neighborhood because they get slammed.

4) Previous house had alot of trick or treaters. I had a bag of candy and a bag of raisins. You needed to say trick or treat to get the candy. Those who just stuck their bag out got raisins.

5) I have 0.0 artistic skills so I usually do the triangle noses and eyes, the mouth usually looks bad.

1. Both in college, either Jesus (went to a Catholic college, it was a hit) or an army man (the green plastic guy, painted & dressed all in green, with a green fake bazooka and green floor mat to strike the pose).

2. Reese's cups. I hate those marshmallow peanuts, though I never seen them anymore, so I'll go with mounds or good & plenty.

3. Been at the house for 3 years now, only got the neighbors kids once before they moved. Still buy candy every year just in case. We're on the main road so I think parents don't want kids going here, much safer neighborhood streets right behind us.

4. Nope. We gave out beers to parents when I lived with friends in Brighton though, was a big hit.

5. Every year I do at least one, the simple triangle eyes / nose + toothy smile. I have little candles for the inside too that I do. It's a tradition my dad used to get us to do but for some reason only my sister & I care (my wife doesn't, her husband and kids dont) so we carve them together and drink wine. Scheduled for Saturday.
