Reminder: Wax Before Halloween

[Audrey]

If you park your precious outside you may want to give it a fresh wax within the next week to help protect its coat!

How to protect your car’s paint from Halloween “tricks”

[eRic]

too bad a coat of wax won't protect against this ):

happy new year...

this was under my previous car

That isn't your Fiesta at least (yours is Magenta!) but it is still pretty sad. I hope nothing gets quite that crazy around here.

car was detailed and waxed 10/7 at a local place that uses Meguiars products (all workers are certified). The new car will get a working over there as well.

However this weekend we are supposed to have some snow showers. Damn!

This whole Halloween thing has gotten out of hand. It should taken out of the streets and kept in the schools, But no, in our wisdom we are taking it out of the schools and putting it in the streets. This means no control and possible trouble with damage and bodily harm. I think it's great for little kids but after the sixth grade it should not be allowed! That's my opinion and I'm sticking with it!

I've never had a problem with pranks. Having the police station across the street from my house probably helps.

Halloween was originally all about the pranks. It got so out of hand that there was a movement to turn it into the door-to-door candyfest it is today. Schools have nothing to do with it.

In my opinion schools already parent students too much. I don't feel like they're "stepping on parents toes" or "going too far," but rather that expectations of parenting has diminished to a very sad state. I'd like to see less done with the schools and more done at home by the "responsible adults" involved, but that's more of a social change than policy one.

All of that said, kids will be kids. Pranks will always be a part of Halloween/life. It's not entirely a bad thing, I suppose.

What the hell? Property damage and hell raising is not a bad thing I suppose? Sorry lady but that doesn't compute. I've been on both ends of the rope and have been ashamed both ways. There is no place for bad behavior. If you want to act tough and crazy then join the Army and channel it for some good use.

The problem is that we don't have responsible parenting and therefore (much to my chagrin) should be "controlled" in the schools. And this is coming from a guy who's whole family is in the teaching field. I know what I'm talking about.

OK I'm done ranting.

Sorry I didn't mean to come on that strong.
