Opinion: Who hijacked Halloween?
Urban legends abound during Halloween. Some are harmless, but others cause extreme reactions to wholly imaginary dangers.
βThe unvarnished truth is that the real and greatest threat to our kids on Halloween is the automobile. Kids are 3X more likely to be hit by a car on #Halloween than on any other night of the year. By focusing on imagined dangers, communities are failing to take action to actually protect children.β

There was almost certainly lead paint in that rubble. Many folks have wondered if there may have been asbestos as well. Whatever was in there will now be leaching into the soil at this golf course, and from there into the waterways...

So... I have a kind of spiritual connection to this story that I think gives me an unusual perspective, and is also completely bananas in its own right. It all has to do with a plate of pasta and a mobster who died in my apartment. Buckle up... (1/26)
