say that you were Pop? Pop and I have been frenemies here and on other boards. He only remains here thru his socks. We both have lengthy IMDb posting histories.

Because of you
@Drakestraw
Yep, because of me Pop completely lost the ability to do his dying act here. I'll take credit for that one.

I haven't had any over the past few years, either. I've moved within the last few weeks, so maybe there will be more here - but I don't hold out much hope for it. Halloween seems to have died.
The train is coming with shiny cars, comfy seats, and wheels of stars. Hush, little ones, have no fear; the man in the moon is the engineer. -

What kind of neighborhood are you living in and was this always the case?
When I lived in a more rural area, we only had one or two if we were lucky. And this wasn't too rural… but everyone went to the nearby subdivisions. The richer the subdivision, the more kids were crowding those neighborhoods.
I'm living in the main part of town now, and there are a lot of trick or treaters. The amount surprised me.
One thing I do see happening with kids now is you don't see them playing outside as much. It could just be I notice it less because I am an adult now, but it does seem that way. I was an indoor kid, but I still went outside more than what kids do now. I'm not saying that as if I am better. I probably would have loved all the tech they have now. -

it's geography for me. to the right is a 7-11. but a 10 foot wall blocks me from that traffic. to the left is a house with two retirees with no grandkids. and i have a locked front gate 60 feet from the street. **** off trick and treaters. do some extra homework instead of begging for candy. little bastards.
