Happy Halloween out there to everyone who gives a damn.

To me, this is just another Saturday. The novelty of Halloween wore off the year after the last time I went out to get candy door to door, which I believe was eighth grade. And If I remember right, I only went that year (after two years where I didn't) because me and my friends all wanted to do it one more time before we were forced to grow up and go to High School.

I was Jerome Bettis/Alien/Backwards Baseball Cap Guy that wielded a machete of sorts.

And now as a college student, I probably should get into the whole dress up as something silly and go out partying, but I believe I'm above that for some reason.

Okay that's not the reason, I hate Halloween.

And I blame it on people for ruining Halloween.

You see last week is the week our neighborhood did Trick Or Treating. To me that's stupid. Who does that a week before from 2 to 4 in the afternoon?

I mean today, it sucks outside, it's windy and cold... So last week's weather was perfect, but it's the principle of things.

Anyway, I won't bore you with my hatred for how the world has screwed up Halloween. In fact I don't really have anything much to say in this post. I just wanted to share with you something that I found mildly amusing and wish you a Happy Halloween. Just because I'm a Scrooge doesn't mean you have to be.

Shin-Soo Boo.



That was done by some dude from Toledo and it was voted the winner of the Indians pumpkin carving contest. For his great skill of carving Cleveland Indians right fielders into a pumpkin and giving it a clever name, this guy won an autographed Grady Sizemore bat and Shin-Soo ball.

So if you wanna win something like that. When winter comes, just build a snowman in the shape of Jhonny Peralta and call it Snowman Jhonny. It isn't a clever name, but it has as much lateral movement as the real Jhonny Peralta.

Best comment on facebook towards this pumpkin... "If that's our best pumpkin, why haven't we traded it yet?"

I really need to stop reading that stuff, but I can't help it. It's entertaining.
