So here in America it's Halloween today. And probably in other parts of the world. Anyone dress up today?

I'm sitting here building a DTS package to load regulatory bank data while dressed as a nun. Not a pretty sight.

Er, I know that girls educated in convent schools often have horror stories to tell, but this doesn't seem entirely right.

I spent most of the day in shorts lying on my couch. Hurt my back moving

Halloween isn't that big in Aus. I did have a few small witches come to the door, but I didn't have anything to give them but Jack Daniels, and that just isn't appropriate.

That would be me! Spent 12 years in Catholic school, 2 of which were in an all girls high school.

Happy Halloween to everyone! I'm hoping that the air quality is okay today (due to the fires in San Diego) to go trick or treating with my 2 nephews and niece.

Outstanding Graz.

After all it takes a man strong in his masculinity to Dress as a Nun.

Well except for that guy on the south side of chicago abducting kids.

Just Kidding.

There goes my access rights.........Again.

Great picture, Graz!

Of course for us work-from-home consultant types, just getting dressed is dressing up.

Honestly speaking I always knew what is the Halloween. LOL.
Trick or Treat, pumpkin-heads and so on...
But why, why it is "trick or treat"?? Wrong priority in this.
Should be "treat (or trick)". What I missed here??

I spent 8 years in a Catholic school, I would have gladly gone two more if it were at an all girls high school.

Happy Halloween!
... hmm, guess its a little late.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!!

A little late for Halloween, but these sorta fit the holiday:

Before seeking revenge, first dig two graves.

I always remember an epitaph which is in the cemetery at Tombstone, Arizona. It says: 'Here lies Jack Williams. He done his damnedest.' I think that is the greatest epitaph a man can have.
