Has anyone else noted how the Halloween candy has gone away and the Christmas decorations have come out at the local retail outlets? So much for my last minute Halloween costume change.

Thanksgiving isn't a commercial holiday (too much), so the next big retail push is for Christmas. Besides, what were you planning to get a costume that you couldn't find at a theatrical, or thrift shop? wink

Yeah but it's still sad to see Christmas decorations up in stores, and in some cases homes, before Halloween is even over and done with yet. I know a crazy old lady who already has her christmas tree up!

It's always like this... I mean look at walmart they had Christmas merchandise out on September fifteenth, before they even had Halloween set up.

I wonder, will the Day that Novas came to Earth ever be celebrated like Christmas ... or Halloween?

N-Day is getting pretty close, to Halloween at least. I heard rumors about this group of wakos in Southern California that do random stupid and dangerous shit every N-Day trying to erupt.

Hey Chimera. I don't know if they are still hanging around SoCal, but you never can tell who left and who stayed.

Oh Man! I saw a home made-mask of me this Halloween. It was the coolest sensation to think that some kid wanted to be me. His costume had a cape though. I don't have a cape. grin

I'm not in SoCal anymore, though not by choice.
