some small kid did a face plant on my porch tonight. His bag ripped and sweettarts were all that

[demtenjeep]

was in it. I gave him a new bag and a lot of extra CHOCOLATE

poor kid

[Lucinda]

1. Awww...poor lil guy. That was kind of you.

Hope that made him happy!

[lonestarnot]

2. Poor little thing.

[GreenPartyVoter]

3. Poor li'l sweetie. :^(

[Llewlladdwr]

4. You did right.

[gkhouston]

5. Poor guy. I had one girl who asked for SweetTarts instead of chocolate when she saw I had

both in my bowl. Kind of a slow Halloween... really sucks having it on a school night.

[Control-Z]

18. My kids' school

always makes the day after Halloween one of their required in-staff, kid-free, days. No one wants to be locked in a class all day with kids that are hungover from sugar.

[Lex]

6. Awww, you made it all better. nt

[patrice]

7. You are a good hearted person, demtenjeep. What you did was important to that kid.

[scheming daemons]

8. was he dressed as Romney and just "in character"?

[DonRedwood]

9. fruit juice gummy monsters here

I used to give FULL size chocolate but we only had 20 kids around back then. Now i've gone healthy but I've given out 75 or so.

Been fun. I put out a fog machine, 12 glow in the dark skeletons hanging in my tree, strobe lights upstairs in each room, plastic spiders and rats on the porch, roaches and centipedes on the porch lights and then i raked all the leaves into a dozen grave mounds with tombstones made out of old wood and some crosses. That has a blue flood on it.

Veeeery scary!!!!

21. post your pictures n/t

[a2liberal]

27. Seconded! (n/t)

[freshwest]

10. Some good treating there! WTG, Demtenjeep.

[demtenjeep]

11. Whoppers, kit Kats, Peanutbutter Cups, Hershey's Chocolate and Milk Duds are way better than tarts

I had only been giving two different kinds, but I gave this kid 2 of each kind

[jackbenimble]

12. That was really nice of you. n/t

[defacto7]

13. You're a great guy demtenjeep! One of the good ones.

If a kid had fallen on Mitt's porch, he would have given the kid a can of beans as a diaper.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

14. You set a bad example. Should've

let him pull himself up by his tiny boot straps let him take his chances in the free candy market.

[MrSlayer]

15. Sweettarts rule.

Seriously. Sweettarts, fun dip, sugarstraws, spree. That's the good stuff.

[Control-Z]

24. How about Red Vines and

Sour Belts? Fruity, sour goodness!! Oh, and don't forget Nerds!!

[thjudd81]

16. mmm Chalky goodness.

Sweet Tarts rock =P

[demtenjeep]

17. naw, give me some good ol chocolate

[calimary]

26. Welcome to DU, thjudd81!

Glad you're here! Happy Halloween (just a few minutes left of it here in So Cal)! We need you to help us all succeed next Tuesday.








Now get to work.

[thjudd81]

28. On it, boss!

I volunteer every waking minute I'm not at work. I am currently clocking 50 hours at Obama HQ.

[calimary]

29. Applause! Thanks! What we need!

[AverageJoe90]

19. You. R. Awesome.

That's all, folks! Win.

[Aristus]

20. Aw, my heart hurts a little thinking of that poor little guy taking a tumble.

And a bag full of B-List candy...

Thanks for helping him out!...

[ThoughtCriminal]

22. I always hand out the "Good Stuff"

Ok, so it's still "Fun Size".

But we're talking chocolate here. Almond Joy and Mint Patties

And I don't drop one or two, they get a handful.

OK, I confess - I usually have lots left over and I want it to be something I like too.

[pnwmom]

23. Not a single trick-or-treater here. I think my neighborhood's aged out.

Either that or they're all trick-or-treating at the mall.

[Behind the Aegis]

25. That was nice of you.

I had one bite it on my sidewalk and scraped up his knee. I got him a band-aid and we gave him a little more candy.
