Halloween: Annual update

Like for the economy, I can now confirm that, based on the number of groups and visitors who came to our house on Halloween night to pick up candies, the recession is officially over. That's right, we've witnessed a small, albeit clear uptick in attendance, and this bodes very well for the future. Costumes were better too, Halloween isn't dead yet and is clearly raising from the dead. Keep it up, ghosts!

Ha! Right stats, wrong conclusion. More visits mean deeper recession, as people accumulate goodies when they are free. Families that were well-off a few years ago are now sending kids scavenging. Better costumes are investments. Were they the same as last year? Or did the costume shops have deeper discounts in these difficult times? We are not out of it my friend!

Funny, my dentist said that was a good trend, which prompted me to write this article. I hate these economic topics!

Don't we say "menteur comme un arracheur de dents" en Haute Savoie?
BTW, I liked the picture of your father, he looked exactly like my grand dad, Ulysse Feige, a man also out of the ordinary. I will tell you about him sometimes.
Love ya, man.
