Test...

[MENTION=38]E_D_Guapo[/MENTION] the wife and I are going to Austin again, be there on the 17th and 18th at least, maybe through the weekend.
 
Damn, the boys pulled a huge win out last night. We played a school with twice the enrollment as U.S. And beat them suckers. These kids have a ton on fight in them.

Yoakum - 28 point underdogs - lost 28-24
Karnes - underdogs - won
Canyon Lake - underdogs by a wide margin - won 55-50

This is going to be a fun year. We played Some really tough non-district games. The discreic is very doable. It is amazing what a year of experience does. They were pups last year.
 
Are y'all staying in one of the Disney resorts?

I was just there a few weeks ago. I stayed at the Shades of Green resort. It's on the Disney property but it's for military members, vets, and retirees.

I ended up buying the 4 day park hopper pass. $175 each.

I've got one day left on my pass. I'd sell it to you for $50 but Disney uses biometrics to link you to your park pass. You have to do fingerprint scans just to enter the park.

It's getting tough out there for scalpers.

Cut off your finger tip and I'll give you $35.
 
Can't, bro. Someone's already put a claim in for it.

Got a "buy it now" offer on eBay from some user who goes by JPPNY90.

That bastard! I hope the deal blows up in his face.

What was the scariest shit to you at Halloween?

When I was really little there was a house near the park and my parents used to tell me a witch lived there. On Halloween they sent me to her door for candy and I was scared shitless because I was about 5. Lady answered the door in a full on creepy ass witch costume, complete with the prosthetic nose, etc. She really got into character too. I still remember her cackling. Terrifying.

My parents told me later that this lady did this every Halloween and they had been setting me up since at least summer with the "Stay away from that house, a witch lives there" story. It worked. That was probably the most scared I had ever been at that point in my life.

Unrelated to Halloween, but a similar lie told to me by my parents...I remember being in the car with my dad when I was no more than 5 or 6 and we pulled up to a particular house. My dad told me to wait in the car while he ran in real quick because they had a monster chained to the door inside and it wasn't safe for kids. There were a couple times after that where we went to that house and I would sit out in the car waiting for my dad trying to imagine this goddamn monster and just getting the chills thinking about it. Yeah...found out later as an adult that my dad was going in to get some weed and made up that story so that I was glad to stay in the car.

Where I grew up in a little shithole in Illinois, it seemed like folks always went all-out for Halloween. We'd have a couple haunted houses and trick or treaters were everywhere.

Here in GA, nobody does shit.

For the last few years we've been building a haunt in my yard and it seems to keep getting bigger and bigger.

Just trying to find some fresh ideas for characters, but you're right about the witch. We've got one that works the entrance to our haunt. She's got the chin, nose, warts, and cackle down to a fine art.
