The wife was just saying last night how she's so upset that teenagers and adults have taken over Halloween. When I asked how so, we began reflecting on how we remember our parents having or going to Halloween parties when we were younger. We even remember being youngsters seeing all the older teenagers, who are now in their 50's and 60's, coming out as we were headed in for the night. The more she started to think about it the more she realized it's been going on for a long time and isn't something new or recent.

I had not seen or heard about this, but am not surprised on a night where people are all over the place in masks.

If my wife doesn't come with us, this is why I don't want my wife handing out candy, while I'm taking our daughter trick or treating. I'm usually walking with my daughter and a couple of her friends and the wife stays home with the lights out. She said no one has knocked on the door and although she isn't going to answer it anyway, she does have the .45 with her in case the locked door isn't enough of a deterrent.
