Halloween is upon us and the little buggers will be knocking on our doors before we know it. I have some fond memories of Halloween from when I was younger and it would be nice if we could capture some of that magic now that we are older but alas it is like a piece of silver that tarnishes as it ages. Sad isn’t it? I think it is but what is one to do? Well maybe today will be a slow day and people will not call in, that is a bit much to hope for considering people will call in here on Christmas day. That surprises me to be sure but then again a lot of people are alone on Christmas which is a very sad thing. Anyway must go and get ready to hop on the phone have a good and safe Halloween everyone, talk to you all later have a good one.

A bald man with a wooden leg gets invited to a Halloween party.
He doesn't know what costume to wear to hide his head and his leg so
he writes to a costume company to explain his problem.

A few days later he received a parcel with the following note"
Dear Sir,
Please find enclosed a pirate's outfit. The spotted
handkerchief will cover your bald head and, with your wooden leg,you will be just right as a pirate.

Very truly yours,
Acme Costume Co.

The man thinks this is terrible because they have just emphasized his wooden
leg and so he writes a letter of complaint. A week goes by and he receives
another parcel and a note, which says"

Dear Sir,
Please find enclosed a monk's habit. The long robe
will cover your wooden leg and, with your bald head, you will really look the part.

Very truly yours,
Acme Costume Co.

Now the man is really upset since they have gone from emphasizing his
|wooden leg to emphasizing his bald head so again he writes the company another nasty letter of complaint.
The next day he gets a small parcel and a note which reads:

Dear Sir,
Please find the enclosed bottle of molasses.
Pour the molasses over your bald head,
stick your wooden leg up your ass and go as a caramel apple.


Very truly yours,
Acme Costume Co
