Really slow night tonight for candy, looks like the swine flu is keeping
folks at home...


It was fairly slow here too. Weather was good. It is still 77 at 2300
I had a bunch of candy. Publix had a buy one, get one and I screwed up
and got two that didn't go together so I ended up with 4. The guy at
the register threw in the extra 2 while he was ringing me up.
It didn't occur to me how much candy that turned out to be until I got
home. I was giving it out by the hand full. The last group just got
the bucket dumped in their bags.


The best part is all the mom's around here seem to use halloween as an
excuse to dress up as hookers, cheerleaders or naughty witches.


We have lots of 4 wheelers, golf carts and one guy pulling kids in a
wagon behind a lawn tractor.

The question is, if you are a teen, old enough to trick or treat in
your car, is that too old? I had a group of them too.


We had a bunch of kids show up on bikes, no costumes.. I looked at then
and said, awesome nerd costume dude.. Then I gave them some candy
anyway

Pew Research annual survey of cable news audiences now shows:

FNC: 39% Republican, 33% Democratic, 22% Independent
CNN: 18% Republican, 51% Democratic, 23% Independent
MSNBC: 18% Republican, 45% Democratic, 27% Independent

The survey shows Fox News' demographic is rather balanced amongst
Republicans, Democrats and Independents.

CNN and MSNBC's audience is slanted towards the Demoncrats.

Fact is that the 33% Democrats watching Fox is way more people than
the 51% watching CNN or the 45% for MSNBC... due to the fact that
Fox has three times as many viewers.... same thing is true for
independents.

Looks like the radical libs are wrong again, who'd a thunk?
