Halloween is not a widely celebrated event in Singapore. Unlike in western countries, where Halloween is primarily a “kids event” and children of all ages dress up in different costumes and go “trick-or-treating” door-to-door, it’s really the adults that have fun on Halloween. Apparently, it’s an opportunity for fun-loving adults to get drunk and go crazy at costume parties. If I had my way, I’ll probably dress up like this:
With Halloweens coming up, I thought I’d share this post from Coffee Klatch.
Here are some strategies to confuse trick-or-treaters next week:
1. PARTY TIME
Get about 30 people to wait in your living room. When trick-or-treaters come to the door, say, “Come in.” When they do, have everyone yell, “Surprise!!!” Act like it’s a surprise party.2. TIME TO FIX IT
Get everyone who comes to the door to come in and see if they can figure out what’s wrong with your dishwasher. Insist that it makes an unnatural “whirring” sound.3. SO WHO’S PAYING FOR IT
After you give them candy, hand the trick-or-treaters a bill.4. MARINE STYLE
Insist that the trick-or-treaters each do ten push-ups before you give them any candy.5. THE WAITER:
Hand out menus to the trick-or-treaters and let them order their candy. Keep asking if anyone wants to see the entrée menu.6. THE DENTIST
Answer the door dressed as a dentist. Angrily give the trick-or-treaters a two-hour lecture on tooth decay.7. THE PILGRIM
Answer the door dressed as a pilgrim. Stare at the trick-or-treaters for a moment, pretend to be confused, and start flipping through a calendar.
This is how politicians try to tempt the weaker ones among us.
Great job by Paul Nichols at the Catholic Cartoon Blog!

I first came across this on Happy Catholic, which then pointed me to the original post at Coffee Klatch.
My Mother taught me LOGIC…
“If you fall off that swing and break your neck, you can’t go to the store with me.”My Mother taught me MEDICINE…
“If you don’t stop crossing your eyes, they’re going to freeze that way.”My Mother taught me TO THINK AHEAD…
“If you don’t pass your spelling test, you’ll never get a good job!”My Mother taught me ESP…
“Put your sweater on; don’t you think that I know when you’re cold?”My Mother taught me TO MEET A CHALLENGE…
“What were you thinking? Answer me when I talk to you…. Don’t talk back to me!”My Mother taught me HUMOR…
“When that lawn mower cuts off your toes, don’t come running to me.”My Mother taught me how to BECOME AN ADULT…
“If you don’t eat your vegetables, you’ll never grow up.My mother taught me about GENETICS…

I personally feel that there aren’t any major conflicts between religion and beer, and I do enjoy an occasional glass of ice-cold beer. Still, I wouldn’t put beer at the same level as religion. Obviously, there are some people who do. 
For those who love their beer more than their religion, here’s an excerpt of what post I came across on The Ironic Catholic.
Some of the Reasons Why Religion Is Better than Beer:
- Too much religion does not induce vomiting.
- There’s no chance of waking up in bed naked with an unattractive stranger after too much religion.
- Jesus is free; beer starts at $2.50 a six-pack.
- Religion has a lot fewer calories.
- Holy water doesn’t affect your sense of balance.
- How many fistfights do you see in a church?
- Religion won’t give you a hangover.
- Your spouse won’t complain that your breath stinks of religion.
- You can have as much religion as you like, and still drive home later.
- Your religion won’t shatter if you drop it on the ground.
- You can shake up your religion, and it won’t explode.
- You don’t have to get your stomach pumped for overdosing on religion.
For the rest of us, this is definitely reassurance that we’ve made the right choice. Either way, it’s still a great source of humor!
