This was my spirit-of-the-season unfinished sentence and some of its responses on Halloween 1992:
The bewitching hour is close at hand--a chilling thought, because just around the corner lurks...
...Elvis and the headless horseman playing Tetris on the Nintendo. (Jenny L.)
...the advent of yet another season of human materialism and concern for only the good of one's self and the shameless promotion of real fat men in big red suits with those damned white beards. (Jeff B.)
...another presidential election--all of the apprehension, deprivation, and self-destruction that is perpetuated by a million-dollar man representing the destitute and helpless. (Brian W.)
