It's Halloween! Or Punky Night, if you live in Somerset, England. This evening, as we in America toss Tootsie Rolls into sacks thrust at us by sticky little children cleverly disguised as sticky little children in sheets, across the pond in Somerset, the Brits are handing out goodies to kids wandering door-to-door as... blimey, who the hell knows? They could be dressed up as cucumber sandwiches for all I know. Sorry. That was unfair. This column isn't even isn't about Halloween. Actually, I haven't decided yet what I'm writing about. I do that sometimes.
