Bizarre.<BR/><BR/>Funny stories, Rhonda!<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure I have any funny Halloween stories. OK, yes I do. One year in college I went as Monica Lewinski. I even put a stain on my Gap dress. I peeled off the top of a yogurt container and smushed that onto my dress to create the stain.<BR/><BR/>I was quite the hit. Problem is...yogurt starts to smell after a while.

So one year a friend of mine and i (we were around 6th grade) tried to come up with something to do that was "naughty". All we had in the house was toiletries...so we ran around sticking toothpaste under door handles and baby powdering the neighbor's yard. Little did we know that morning dew completely erased all evidence of our escapades. It looked like serious dandruff the night before though....Bitchy Burnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15735174610500590749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38053992.post-9508065301896322922008-10-29T12:09:00.000-04:002008-10-29T12:09:00.000-04:00Gerb--forking is so much fun.

Its a little time consuming but totally worth it.<BR/><BR/>It works best if there are at least 4 in the group, that way you can quadrant off the yard.<BR/><BR/>Each person has several boxes of plastic forks. In the cover of night, you each take a section of yard and fill it up with forks by sticking them into the ground. It's awesome because the person you forked has a huge clean up...and it's always the kids who have to clean up...so totally worth the effort.The Girl You Used to Knowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03785178792832979385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38053992.post-78457321041704857512008-10-29T11:44:00.000-04:002008-10-29T11:44:00.000-04:00Kristen--yeah, I'm crazy that way.

Especially my daughter. Poor kid.<BR/><BR/>I have a cute story though. About the year my dog fell in love with a fairy. This cute little girl in a fairy costume came to the door, all glittery and pink, and my dog--who loves kids and answering the door--looked back at me like she was saying, "Can we keep her?". Libby, the dog, then nuzzled the little girl and tried to leave with them. It was quite sweet. The girl loved her back too. They stayed on our porch for quite a while.Gwen Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07372049662768907328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38053992.post-23508571899067850662008-10-29T11:19:00.000-04:002008-10-29T11:19:00.000-04:00OK, I'll bite Mel... how does one fork a yard?My m...OK, I'll bite Mel... how does one fork a yard?<BR/><BR/>My mischief growth must be stunted!Gerbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13073463561640650913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38053992.post-44622362387736760402008-10-29T11:07:00.000-04:002008-10-29T11:07:00.000-04:00LOL! Rhonda, you crack me up!Let's see...one Hallo...LOL! Rhonda, you crack me up!<BR/><BR/>Let's see...one Halloween night in high school (okay <I>every</I> Halloween night in H.S.) a group of us wold pick a target and TP their house and Fork their yard. On this particular night, we chose a boy we had a crush on...this boy also happened to be the son of my hairdresser.<BR/><BR/>We got his house rolled and we were to the point where we were forking the yard when the outside lights came on. There was NOWHERE to hide. Most everyone scattered but I was stuck...So I jumped into the flowerbed and pressed myself against the wall in the shadows while my hairdresser and her hot son spent fifteen minutes on the front porch assessing the damage. 5 feet away from me.<BR/><BR/>Their dog was inside the house and going nuts. Apparently the dog knew I was still outside because I could hear him barking at the wall directly behind me. <BR/><BR/>I held my cool and finally they went inside. Then I took off.<BR/><BR/>Ironically, I had a hair appt just a few days later and I had to hold my cool again while my hairdresser went on and on about Halloween Hoodlums.
