Alex: 1 Dad: 0

While I was in the midst of one of my typical anti-Halloween diatribes, my wife sided with the boys and reminded me that I liked trick-or-treating for candy when I was a kid, and then Alex chimed in-- rather sagaciously for a six year old-- and told me something that I often forget:  "You weren't born a grown-up, Dad."

you definitely hosted some great halloween parties, so I find this anti-halloween stance to be total bullsh*t. You're probably bitter because your olive costume doesn't fit anymore

and my costumes were always a tongue in cheek ironic condemnation of halloween and other pagan holidays. right?
