Come on, I'm 18 ... too old 8) ... anyway, you have to see the popularity of Halloween in perspective ... we have never had anyone coming to us to ask candy at the night of Halloween ... I even don't know people who celebrate Halloween ... but according to some people, there are some places here in the Netherlands where like 15 children dress themselves up like horrible monsters ( you know: Michael Jackson, Liza Minnelli, George W. Bush ...) and celebrate it ...
Morning Ricky

Ricky I am way older than 18 and I go trick or treating..really I do..its fun..a few halloweens ago galaniomama and I went out in her jeep, man we got alot of stuff...the best part was flying down the road in her jeep with her cape flying behind...the top was down...we park and walk...it was lots of fun..and most of the other kids are bigger than us anyway..and they have no idea that we could be their parents 
hahaha do you have some photos? :wink: ... and what costume did you have, were you the monster of frankenstein, a mummy, dracula???
At the particular halloween night I was a bowling pin...truly..I looked just like one two..all you see were my eyes and my mouth...I needed to see and eat and I had black stockings on..and I have kid size feet a size 5..regardless of what galaniomama says...the women wears a nine or something giant like that so she is envious of my tiny feet...anyway..yes the bowling pin costume worked excellent for collecting candy...the real trick is when some adult tries to get you talk at the door...do not speak...just giggle...if you speak they might catch on Well I will definately provide you with pics of this years event...and its better to trick or treat with one of those plastic jack o lanterns...looks more kid like..you can keep spares in the jeep..if you show up with a pillowcase they get suspicious...its most fun when you go to house where you know the candy dispensers and they have no idea "tis" "me" peapod... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
This year I am tossing ideas around for my costume in regards to trick or treat...I have to 2 costumes..one for the parties and one for collecting candy...yes life is very difficult for podpea....see I am in diquise right now practicing for the big night...Well gotta go and do something...don't know what....but something...later gater

:lol: :lol: :lol: a bowling pin! man, it does sound like fun how you tell it ... I'm still too old ... and probably too tall ...
...Aha ... sunday has arrived here ... 12 o'clock ... it's all dark outside ... horrormovie on the TV ... Intwine (Dutch rock band) and Cat Stevens coming out of the speakers .... must become a good sunday ...
Dam I cannot stop yakking to you....to tall? what are you nuts how about the giant in jack in the bean stock? there are plenty of giants around....and lots of kids now are 6 footers at 10.. you are very smart ricky...but you gotta work on letting your imagination run wild...you only get to go around the block once little minime grasshopper Thats it ciao for now :wink:

Cat Stevens 8) tea for the tillerman? I love that one...right now I am listening to thelonious monk...the greatest jazz player ever!!!! Do you ever listen to jazz in holland? and is it true about all the pot smoking there 8)
I never listen to jazz actually ... don't really like it, it's not my style ... and concerning smoking pot, well it depends where you are: when people are in amsterdam, they all come home and tell: well those dutchmen all spoke pot! while 1) most people who you see smoking pot in amsterdam are tourists and 2) in the rest of the netherlands you have to look hard to catch anyone smoking a joint. I've heard the youth in countries as denmark, france and the uk smoke more pot than us dutch youth. it's not special anymore I guess, now it's sorta legal here ...
Morning ricky..wow I over slept today...although I was awake at 5..but i went back to sleep...now I gotta get ready to drive to my brothers house of horrors. The things you do to get a turkey dinner...I am sorry to hear that you are not aware of the theloious monk..you are missing out 8)
Well now I got the real story on the pot smoking over there. You should hear the tales people tell here of pot smoking in holland. It pretty liberal on the island here..but still illegal...if you are sick or dying than you get it legally. I have a friend who has hiv, and he gets it free...it describes it like a restaurant...with a menu and daily specials....now what should I have for breakfast?

For breakfast? ... bet you had your brealfast already by now, else I would recommend eggs ... I like eggs ... had them for breakfast 8) ... but if I understand it correctly, it's thanksgiving today right? In that case: Happy Thanksgiving!!! ... and if not: forget what I just wrote...
Peapod, what did you have for breakfast this morning??? Anything good? Some Thanksgiving leftovers?
