12 year-old Boy Killed trick-or-treating!

A 12-year old boy died from gunshot wounds last night while trick-or-treating in Sumpter, South Carolina. His father and brother also sustained wounds fired from inside a house. The police caught the crazy bastard and he is now in jail charged with three counts of attempted murder.

WATCH OUT FOR WIERD TRICK-OR-TREATERS TONIGHT!

Not all the ghouls and goblins, and things that go bump in the night, are

going to be children out seeking candy.

For instance, take the clown pictured here...he has soul mates across the states, so you're never sure where interesting characters like him will pop up trick-or-treating!

My five grandchildren will be out tonight showing off their costumes, which I can assure you, will bear no resemblance to anything this fellow is wearing.

Isn't Halloween great? Grown-ups get to act like kids and kids get to act like grownups.

Wherever you are tonight, make sure to turn on a light, and be ready for hungry Halloween visitors!

"Trick or treat! Give me something good to eat!"

Former President Bill Clinton campaigns for Obama: kisses everyone in sight!

It's nearly E-Day and the Democratic Party is bringing out all of their heavyweights to persuade voters to put Obama down as their presidential choice. Clinton surprised a number of onlookers when, after speaking out for Obama in Florida, he paused to French kiss a black lab who had snuck into the "kissing line."

An enterprising Clinton fan took this photo as the minutes passed. The touching moment was marketed as a Political Post Card (TWO DOGS KISSING) by the fan, who now says he wants to catch McCain, and a Pitbull that looks like Sarah Palin, in a similar spontaneous moment.

This blog says go for it! Soon this election is going to be over, and then what the heck are we going to do? This whole campaign has been called historic, and it is, if for no other reason than it's one of the funniest on record!

Of course, it's also ranks high in rancor. The name calling has excelled heights that even the Dark Lord ,Karl Rove has been surprised to see! Pundits have played with every nasty accusation, wallowing like pigs in the mire. 

It's not over yet, however, and as we go into the final days brace yourself for more political incoming!

 

THE ENGLISH HAVE FUN WITH HALLOWEEN TOO!

Blimey! This bloke was found on Dave Barry's Blog. He's said to be a product of some Englishman but no name is given. Whoever it was, he must be carving pumpkins for a living.

The Brits do like to celebrate Halloween and they go all out doing it...just like us crazy Americans!

MEET THE JERK-OF-THE-DAY: Bill Cunningham radio host

According to Cunningham, "People are poor in America, not because they lack money; their poor because they lack values, morals, and ethics. And if you can't teach and instill that, we're wasting our time simply giving poor people money."                                                                                                                                          

This moron went on to say, "Unlike many other countries in the world we have fat poor people. We don't have skinny poor people. Ours are fat and flatulent."
