Trick Or Treat

I'm glad they rained on this fool's parade:

A pastor who wants to promote his anti-abortion campaign won't be able to do it in York’s annual Halloween parade.

For the past several years pastor Jim Grove has entered a float displaying graphic pictures of aborted fetuses and other pro-life messages. The YWCA took over the parade from the City of York this year. That means the private organization doesn’t have to protect Grove's first amendment rights. It rejected grove's application for his float. The parade guidelines say displays must fit into the event's family-friendly theme.

I'd really like people who are old enough to know better to bug out of Halloween. Just pass the candy out at the door like grown-ups and leave the holiday to the children to whom it belongs. The other day I clicked a Yahoo article on the top 5 costumes, and they were all for grown-ups. I know the Boomers are determined to go from baby rattle to death rattle in a state of perpeptual immaturity, but there's no reason post-generations have to follow suit. Halloweeing women need to find another night of the year on which to fulfill their desperate need to expose themselves in public as a slutty French maid, slutty corpse bride, slutty serving wench, or slutty Cat Woman.
Groundhog Day's open -- go shake a titty for Punxsutawney Phil.
