Okay, I’m upstairs and put lights up and have the Halloween Atmosphere Mix going in a secret place in the yard and now will give you a report of what the kids are wearing tonight.   Okay, I’m having fun with this.

5:25 - Our first kid dressed as an Air Force pilot.  He was 4 or something.  So cute!

5:43 - The grim reaper showed up at the door with — get this — a kid dressed as a Curious George book.  That’s right his arms were the open pages of a book and had his candy bad hanging from his neck.  I had to put candy in his bag for him since he couldn’t move his arms.  I think we already have a best costume of the night.

5:55 - Two more kids showed up.  One dressed as some Stevie Nick’s looking thing and the other as Thing 1.  Or 2.  I couldn’t see the number.

6:22 - Pooh Bear just showed up and only wanted one piece of candy.  The three adults that were with him all laughed when I told Pooh that I had a second piece of candy and that I was being generous tonight.  They had to prompt him to say ‘trick or treat’, too.  So cute!

6:31 - Just had the killer from the Scream movies, a funky brother, a bloody skull and a sassy mama.  The best thing? As I’m giving them Snickers and M&M’s (we don’t skimp here), one of them said, "Ooo, he’s got the good stuff!"

6:38 - Just had Superman and Spider-man asking for candy.  Spider-man wanted to rush in and play with Sydney and Roo.  It was pretty funny.

6:59 - Spider-man came back! Only this time he had foam muscles and had a gruff voice like he’d been drinking whiskey all night.

7:01 - Two Power Rangers (are they still hip?) and a… uh, I guess she was dressed as a sister since she was watching over the other two, but wanted candy, too.

7:17 - HAHAHA!  Just had two girls dressed as awkward, geeky girls trying to be pretty and princess-like.  Cracked me up!

7:52 - Wow, the big kids are out.  Had 5 mid-teen kids show up.  The good thing about coming this late is that we still have tons of candy so you get more now.

8:48 - It’s time to wrap up.  Hope everyone had a safe Halloween.

Kelly is the creation of Liam Kyle Sullivan and is one of the funniest video I’ve seen in a while.  It’s the repetitive techno and his voice that really make it.  I know he’s doing a stereotype and it’s been done before, but his twist on it is hilarious.  There is lots of naughty language, so consider that when you choose your location to view the video.

Since tomorrow is Halloween, I thought I give you a slightly remixed version of the song I did for the zombie slide show.  I whipped the original out quickly and upon listening grew to hate some of the panning (left / right channel switch), so I played that down and added a few changes in the main instruments.

So play this and the Halloween Atmosphere Mix loudly tomorrow night.  Of course, I would avoid playing Self’s "KiDdies" (free download!) tomorrow night. With lyrics like "Let’s go trick or treakin’ dress up like Marilyn Manson/Snatch up all the kiddies and then hold ‘em all for ransom" you may get some big kids dressed up as cops and I don’t think they’ll want your candy. But your new roommate will — if you know what I mean.

You can download "Zombes (Remixed)" and keep it forever if you wish.
