Greetings Infomaniacs,

Halloween is getting close. I love Halloween; the parties, the costumes, the decorating, even sitting at home waiting for the little trick-or-treaters is exciting. Maybe it's the little kid in me.

If I could still get away with trick-or-treating I would so totally do it!

Enjoy!
