Sounds like sppoky times ahead in Columbus, MAureen. Happy Halloween. Great local content. How come we never had all this stuff when I was a kid?

Jeff... the holiday is more commercialized today than it was?   Isn't Halloween the next holiday to Christmas for retail sales now?  Of course it is a distant, distant second.  Zoo's, museum's capitalize on the popularty of the holiday to get the kids to visit again.
