Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Ironically enough! Last night beaverfever said when he was a little kid he went as Steve Urkel for Halloween, complete with blackface.

First time having Trick o' Treaters since I was in college.
Thought we'd get more than we did.
Nine kids showed -- last little dude sure got a lot of candy.

We took both kids in the wagon and stroller....they lasted about 45min...then back home to let them answer the door and give out candy...which basically consisted of my 2 year old standing on the front porch ringing the door bell repeatedly...then i took the 5 year old back out for a few more houses....my kids don't eat a bunch of candy so I'm stocked up for late night Jayhawk game snacks.

The wife and I are trying a low/no sugar diet so no candy for me this year. I was probably a toddler the last time I didn't have candy on Halloween.

Pretty disjointed Halloween in our neighborhood. The big group got together at 6:30, the kids splintered into packs of 4-8, and everything was pretty much done in an hour. I had a bowl of chili and a cocktail by 7:45. Kids put themselves to bed at 8:50 and 9:05. Stunning.

The rain and wind and cold just pelted my smoker - I couldnt keep the top vent open at all b/c the rain would leak onto the meat.
Chicken was stalling at 150.

I should have tried to set up a tarp to cover it but was exhausted from the 18 inning Red Sox game night prior.

I ended up giving up after three hours and moving it indoors, wrapped in foil, on 220 in the oven.

Still turned out delicious - have a lot of leftover chicken.
That's why we stopped hosting a big Halloween Party. Tons of work and money to decorate then people flake on you and you feel like you worked for nothing. Now we host a huge holiday party first weekend of December. Much easier and a more consistent turnout.

GOAT holiday! Pumped!

It’s like my favorite movie and I’ve put it off for years, but this year I’m finally going as the dude.

I’m a believer in incorporating facial hair into costumes. I’ve got a yuge beard right now that’ll trim up nice as the dude’s goatee, especially once it’s saturated with White Russians.

And this season is particularly befitting, given my currently employment status...you don’t go out looking for a job dressed like that, do you? On a weekday??

The year, 1983.
The place, 17th and Tennessee St.
The people, myself and two roommates; Big Steve and Chowderhead.

The three of us were working at the Cornucopia on Mass St. One of the other cooks comes in and says he saw a note with our address posted at the Crossing saying Halloween Party, Free Beer.

There wasn't much we could do at that point except go with it. We bought 3 kegs and rolled up the carpeting. The house was shoulder to shoulder all night. Some crazy stuff happened.
