Just Give Me the Darn treat

This article speaks to what sad state of affairs this whole world is coming to.

I remember those days of trick or treating when I was elated to get 1 piece of candy from each house and not think anything else about it. (I must admit I was “that kid” who would moan about the folks handing out raisins, but only after walking away from the house).

This being the first year of my adult life to live in an honest to goodness house in a neighorbood (as opposed to apartment), Carrie and I were quite excited to sit at home last Friday evening and hand out candy. It was an enjoyable experience for the most part, but I was taken aback at how many kids would ask for more even though I had just given them 3-4 pieces of candy.

But at least I didn’t get my house egged or attacked by any deranged parents.
