My son's favorite holiday is Halloween. Now that he has a degree in film making and works doing special effects makeup, the costumes are even more elaborate and realistic. Last year he was Heath Ledger's Joker character in the nurse's uniform. This year it is Hitcher from the Mighty Boosh.

I remember when he was about 6 or 7 and I would take him trick or treating, he would forget to say "trick or treat". He'd go to the door and say "hi, thank you".
