I didn't consider laughter. I thought about crying. They were truly
stretching for something to complain about in regards of the drug
themes. I wonder if they consider Chemistry class a wondrous place to
learn about drugs as well!

And as for the comments about Halloween, they obviously have no idea
the history of the holiday. Halloween is All Hallow's Eve. All Hallow's
Day is November 1st, most commonly known as All Saint's Day, which is a
Christian holiday. Back when the early Christian church was first growing,
many people still held onto the old holidays/fests like Samhain and so,
the Catholic Church developed a holy day to be at the same time in order
to absorb the old ways into the Christian way. Christmas is in winter,
Easter is in spring, for the same reason. By now, Halloween is so secular
and non-religious in that is really is about candy and costumes. This
is all I know about the holiday, if anyone else knows more about it,
speak up! And I know people will.<vbg>
