statistics
By the time I got home and ready to give out candy at 5:35 there were already a few kids on the street. Another record year:
28 kids by 6:00
92 kids by 6:30
100 kids by 6:35
147 kids by 7:00
200 kids by 7:11
222 kids by 7:30
240 kids by 8:00
250 kids by 8:15 or so, and then nothing until 9:15
261 kids by 9:30. The after-dinner kids are mostly well costumed 12-15 year olds in a small number of large groups. They're much less shy about ringing doorbells than the little kids are. I think there were still another dozen of them out there who might have come by if we hadn't shut off the porch light in order to go fetch take-out and watch Shaun of the Dead. I wonder if those kids have been out there all along or if this is a new phenomenon.
A bunch of us on the block are thinking that next year it is time to get the city to close the street.

Our leftovers are on the table by the support folks; have at. :-)
