halloween: Why children don't trick or treat anymore - 10/31/10 06:20 PM

Why children don't trick or treat anymore
Authorities throughout Southern California are asking parents to inspect any Halloween treats that their children bring home, including candles and drinks.
Apparently marijuana-laced products have been found in several areas, mostly in the Los Angeles metroplex. Marijuana-laced products are packaged to look like commercially available products and to specifically appeal to children for Halloween. These include not only the aforementioned candles and drinks, but also candies and cereal snacks.
These types of products present health threats due to the concentrated amounts of marijuana, and many of them are prepared in unknown, perhaps unsanitary, … (13 comments)

halloween: Don't let the spooks spook your pets! - 10/31/10 01:48 PM

Don't let the spooks spook your pets!
I know we're all anticipating the little spooks arriving at our houses this evening looking for treats, and threatening tricks, but don't forget our other little spooks, more popularly known as pets.
All the noise — doorbells ringing, unknown voices, laughter, doors slamming, children screaming with excitement over their latest goodies —  can be very traumatic for our pets. Here are some tips to help your pets make it through the evening:
Keep your pets in a room far away from the Halloween action, preferably in a place that they are familiar with. If your pet is … (9 comments)

halloween: We have a new cemetery in the neighborhood! - 10/12/10 03:58 PM

We have a new cemetery in the neighborhood!
On my first visit to New Orleans I took a tour of a cemetery.That just didn't sound right when I was touring, but eversince then I tend to notice cemeteries. I don't rememberone in San Bernardino where I grew up, and I know ofonly two here in San Diego. Outside of New Orleans,the only cemetery I visited is the National Cemetery inRiverside since my dad is buried there.
Today, though, I found a new cemetery in the neighborhood.Seems it cropped up almost overnight:

halloween: ATTENTION: Don't eat those pumpkin seeds! - 10/16/09 08:37 PM
If you carve your own pumpkin rather than buying one of those plastic or ceramic ones, and you either throw away the seeds or roast them in the oven to eat, it's
VERY IMPORTANT
that you follow these instructions before doing either of those.
First, wash the seeds thoroughly and let them dry.
Second, count the number of seeds. This makes a great family or group event since there can be many, many seeds. You can even provide prizes to the person counting the most seeds. If you do more than one pumpkin, provide a prize to the person with the … (17 comments)
