@Caryn: Atta girl! :) Do you / did you get trick-r-treaters where you are?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:12pm
Guido from Cologne:

In some mock history radio show it was said "Halloween" comes from German "Hallo Wahn" ("Hello delusion") coined by Martin Luther in order to estabish a protestant alternative to Carnival. Of course everything is a lie ... but that would fit the Syd track.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:12pm
Caryn:

So, basically, there are two versions of the movie, which differ slightly from one another.

@kat: nope. In recent years, Halloween parties and candy have taken off, but since we already to the trick-or-treat thing with virpojat at Easter, that bit hasn't been adopted here.

Our So IN weather went from 83 F on Monday to barely 40 F today when the kids are due to arrive. Seems we've had lousy H-ween weather the past several years, always leaving us a buttload of extra candy to unload.

Thanks for the info Caryn
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:20pm

@kat: well, that's preferable to running out of candy halfway through, and then getting your house egged. (Of course, the best scenario is to have exactly the right amount of candy, but that's unlikely to happen.)

If there's one country with a surfeit of demons, monsters and what-have-you in its culture, it has to be India. How anyone keeps track of all the gods and goddesses, and their endless festivals, without a spreadsheet, is mind-boggling, much like the pantheon itself.

Late Neubauten line-up members contribute to quite a few projects they contribute to, studio wise or as backing musicians. respectively involve people with their own history. A friend of mine was in a group with Jochen Arbeit (Martin Dean Group) for instance. So can be everything.
