Good Morning Lounge
off to another day of exploding Mosfets . I think I broke a world record.

BTW , explain to me Halloween ? I know what it is about , I just don't understand being happy and festive and death and decay and all that scary stuff.

Or is it some kind of gallows humour ?

1. It is an opportunity for your real self, the one you hide away, to reveal itself.
The so called "costumes" are just a convenient social tool to allow your real self to come out and play in traffic.

3. One party we went as "Mistress (wife's name) The Very Very Bad Witch and Her Naughty Pet".
Nobody could tell if we were really in costume or not.

4. Candy = good.
"The holiday where boys dress like girls,
and girls dress like prostitutes."

Sexy costumes for the teenagers,
Candy, candy, candy for the kids.

Here's my kid's favorite Halloween book when
they were little:
