Trick or Treater

Hallo-bama-ween costume receives "funniest" and "changiest."

For mothers and fathers on Welfare, trick or treat night can be an arduous, work-like mission.

"Shoots sake, it's almost like I got a job or something," said Geraldine Walbacker. "March the whole way around the block for a Snickers? I don't think so."

This Halloween, millions of state and local Welfare recipients, like Walbacker, can sign up for the TOT-A plan, or trick or treat assistance. The government program takes 35 percent of the Halloween treats from working trick-or-treaters and divides the spoils among the unfortunate and the truly unambitious.

G. Kurt Marns, who heads up the regional TOT-A program, said the program redistributes the wealth of tootsie rolls, candy apples, candy corn and other festive treats.

A lot of my wife's students live in our neighborhood. They are overwhelmingly pro-0bama.
So tonight, when they come trick-or-treating, they'll get a lesson in distributive mechanics. I'm going to identify the one who has the most candy and make him share the cavity potential with his companions. I won't actually add anything to the pot myself.

It’s satire... at least today.
Tomorrow. Who knows?
I like to refer to this a Prophetic Satire.

I'm gonna do it alright. Hopefully there won't be any trouble.
If there is, I'll turn my 22 pound tomcat loose on them.

Cat that is not declawed would do the trick, But seriously I’d advise against what you propose to do. I double dogged dared you to do this, but I hope the you’re just pullin my chain like I was pullin yours. Many kids go Trick or treating with thier parents. And even if you kid with a kid, and one of these parents finds it an excuse to do something dumb. Well lets just say 22lb kitty may not be enough.

Watch the video at this link entitled The Plot to Overthrow the United States of America. Watch it all the way to the end (55.5 min). Then send to EVERYONE you know.
