..if you were to, hypothetically, sever Michael’s head, hollow it out, and attach a handle to its exterior surface…..the resulting candy receptacle would hold approximately 3.6 pounds of treats.
Obviously, this measurement will vary widely depending on the KitKat:Smartie ratio of the candy givers you’re visiting and the amount of packing you do to get the last few handfulls to fit. Since we here in Iowa have “Beggars Night” the night before Halloween, I thought I’d give you all some advance intel on the subject before y’all get dressed up and go out begging for candy (or “candy” that’s bought in 750 ml bottles at the Package Store in most of your cases).
SCORE!!!!!!!
Janis came home from work early to take Moses up to the town square for trick or treating at all the courthouse square merchants. She brought him out to the implement dealership to see Dad, but since we didn’t have any candy, he got a bucketfull of o-rings, metric locknuts, and the (slightly used) voltage regulator off an old JD 318 lawn tractor.
I took him around to see some of our friends in the neighborhood, and this picture shows him at the conclusion of the night. And, since not all Iowa towns buy into the “beggars night” BS, Janis is going take him to visit her sister’s family in Huxley tomorrow afternoon, so that he can double dip. Just think of it as voting as a Democrat: trick or treat early, and trick or treat often.
Mo, dude, you got a spare Snickers in there?
Help a brother out.
Since Mom won’t let him have any candy with peanuts in it, yeah. He’s got a snickers for you, Michael.
You want a “classic” snickers, or one of those “snickers darks”?
Any Reese’s?????
Classic, of course.
More posts about severing Michael’s head and filling it with candy, please.
Reeses? A few, but dad’s got “dibs” on the Reeses.
Dibs on the Smarties!
Lipstick — we have smarties to share, and various tootsie roll products, cruch bars, gummy candies, suckers, hershey bars, animal crackers, cheese god fish crackers, twizzlers, laughy taffy, nerds, sour patch kids, swedish fish . . . should I go on? I think I will take it all up to my sisters for her to handout to her trick or treaters.
DIBS on the metric locknuts and voltage regulator!!
HELLS YES!
Sorry for all the typos — hard to type with an19 1/2 month old by your side.
Dang, I wanted to try a cheese god fish cracker.
KC, I will arm wrestle you for that voltage regulator.
It’s ON Dave. Bring the guns.
The left gun or the right one?
As the challenged, choice of weapon is yours.

Nice to see that the code duello lives on in Texas.
Is that one of those monkeys in mourning?
He looks pretty content to me.
Maybe he swiped a Mars Bar from the dead monkey.
