Halloween Cancelled
I was watching "The View" this morning when they mentioned that the governor of Arkansas has cancelled Halloween. Either they were making a joke or they were serious, but they said the governor was concerned that parents would panic if their child received candy like Pixy Stix. As you may know, Pixy Stix is that powder candy.
However, they made a really good point. Parents have been extremely cautious with Halloween candy for years now. I remember when I was a little kid not being able to eat the candy until I got home so it could be inspected.
I feel sorry for the kids. Maybe the parents will do what the parents in my neighborhood eventually began doing, and contribute to a neighborhood party for the kids.
