Halloween

Well today is Halloween. The funnest day of the year. I don’t think there is no other day that compares to it.  Christmas is about family (and gifts), Easter is about God, and so forth. Halloween is fun. Pure and simple fun. The fireworks, the candy and the crisp fall air as hordes of trick or treaters fan out in search for the house that has the best possible treats. Candy Apples, chips, bars, and what ever else comes to mind.

I remember coming home with full garbage bags full of loot. There was always one house that had the best treats or gave you tons of stuff.  Of course no matter how much you got it only lasted less than 7 days. Seven magical days of junk. Of course the dentists were only too happy to inflict the wrath of candy later.  I bet they just loved Halloween and Easter. Candy and cavities just make for booming business.

So as I sit at work trying to somewhat pass for a vampire (the 3 days beard growth just kills it) I say Happy Halloween and enjoy the junk. And remember that sale price candy will soon be available.

The world as we know it has ended. When Dave stated that if I started blogging that the terrorists have won, well what was I to do? So I decided to try this an experiment.  I am a R/C warship captain with 2 boats now under construction. Sadly I had to retire my first boat this year. The USS South Carolina  was retired after 3 seasons of activity. The boat needs some major refitting that I do not have the space for. Condos do not necessarily have workshops built into the structure. 

I have no illusions about this blog. It is more of something to do between calls at work. So enjoy everyone.
