Thread: Halloween 4 Christmas!?!?!

Tweet

Here's the list of Halloween items I received, for my birthday last week and Christmas this weekend. As an interesting side note, this is the first time I've had any Nightmare Before Christmas stuff... I think since my non-Halloween friends and family knew I would like Halloween stuff, they felt like they still needed to mix an element of Christmas into the gift. An interesting observation I think.

Did anyone else get any Halloween related items as gifts this year?

Merry Halloween everyone!

Sure did.

I got a 22' ladder that bends into 28 positions. I know many might not see this as a Halloween item, but it will help get all that stuff up on the house.

Happy Hauntings,

Only one flicker bulb, sorta cheesy candlabra from Cracker Barrel. Not what I was hoping for from the hints. I did get some cash, which will probably find its way into some props.

I took my gorilla suit and put it on a mannequin, pinned a Santa hat on it and surrounded it with purple rope lights at his feet (paws)... he has been out in the front yard for a week until today.

I plan on sticking him out later this week with a party hat and sash...at some point on New Years Eve, I am putting him face down in the yard with an empty champagne bottle.

Great idea!
To add to your idea....If you could get a hold of an old toilet, maybe your gorilla could 'pray to the porcelin(sp) god'?!

And a few weeks after New Years you can have him standing in the front yard with a paternity test and a shocked look!

Amazing what you find out after a party. ;-)

All I got was a nose trimmer. And no battery.

I got quite a few tools to help with projects next year: 10" table saw, 10" drill press, new B&D sander, laser level, air compressor, storage for all my small parts.

I did not get much at all a few things but not anything good. I also had a peson back into the front of my car and have a drain backup in the basement.

I remember one Christmas Eve when our Basement backed up. That sucked. I had to call Roto Rooter and spent $90. Our tree in the front yard is sending it's roots in to our septic pipe so once a year we have to snake it.


My wife got me a Craftsman router for Christmas. I have been wanting one for a while. She smiled and said, "Now you can build those mailboxes for my classroom!"

I knew she was up to something.
