Sure, all u gotta do is convince the Catholic Church to move All Saints Day to the Sunday following the final Saturday in October and we’re all set.

What a moron.

I know I know. The guy is a Democrat but I agree with this. My wife and I go to a Halloween Party every year and it is held the Saturday before Halloween or two Saturdays before. In fact, we just attended it this past Saturday. Having it during the week really isn’t fun for anyone. The kids get all this candy and immediately have to go to bed. A Friday or Saturday night would be the best I believe.

For Conn. it might be best to move it to Dec. 31st. The kids are out of school, it’s a$$ freezing cold which should reduce the number of kids out there which should make it safer, and you could hand out ice cubes colored with food dye which would be healthier, non-fattening and PC. Best of all, it would put Conn. into the ultra elite group of states that are known for forging new pathways in stupidity.

Can’t anybody leave anything alone any more? Boo hoo to the parents - when you have children the last day of October is Halloween. Get used to it.

That’s okay because when we’re all Communists it won’t matter anyway, the government is going to cancel all holidays and give us one big fashion show!

HOW about the government STAY OUT OF HOLIDAY dates, like they should every thing else....and in fact revert BACK to the REAL dates, like the REAL Washington and Lincoln Birthdays, the REAL Veterans Day, etc....the ONLY reason people want them on Monday’s or whatever is for THEIR convenience (and holiday pay)....next thing you know Christmas will ALWAYS be on SUNDAY.

And while your at it, change Super-Bowl Sunday to Super-Bowl Saturday, so I can get really drunk and not have to worry about work the next day.

Come to think of it, do the same for Christmas too.

Can some people just leave tradition the heck alone. So what if Halloween is on a Monday instead of the “preferred” Saturday?! Do what every other parent does... take the kids out earlier. Duh!

This is NOTHING. In my world, the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission decides when Halloween is. This year it waries from the 27th to the 31st depending on municipality.

I've lived here for 20 years, and this is the one "local" idiocy I have fought with fervor all that time. Halloween is October 31. Period.

Maybe he’ll get a bunch of screaming irate wiccans for moving their holy day.

Sure, we can do that. And how about making Christmas a Monday Holiday so we get that 3-day weekend thing going and Independence Day could be on the second Friday following the summer solstice. See, it can all work out.

We to have a curfew need to move Halloween to only daylight hours. Certainly dangerous and scary at night.
