Halloween And The History Of The Best Holiday. 

Dave Grohl was out Halloween shopping with his daughter recently and of course the media was all over it. I mean it was the first time he made an appearance since the “Love Child” scandal, so its only natural for the paparazzi to be out plastering his mug all over the place.   Poor Dave. He Messed up bad. But what's the real story here? Dave Grohl is human? No, but yes he is.  Which child was he with? The “Love Child?” or the Married with Kids child? No, but it seems “Love Child” The paparazzi have a terrible job. Yes, but no that's not the story.  The real story is that Halloween is Here!  Halloween Is The Best Holiday By Far.  Halloween comes from the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, from way back. Like over 2000 years ago back. It was meant to mark the end of harvest season and signal the beginning of winter. It also believed the boundary between the living and the dead was at its most vulnerable.  So to protect themselves, the Celts lit bonfires' and wore costumes made of wool to ward off bad spirits.   Then Christianity came along and was like this isnt Christian enough, so the Pope at the time , Pope Gregory III, declared November 1 as All Saints' Day and the declared the night before as "All Hallows’ Eve, AKA Halloween.    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iro229V4Wss Fast Forward a ton of years, and here we are with a holiday that not only keeps in line with the traditional pagan customs, including a fascination with the supernatural and spirits, but stays in step with really bad Presidential masks. Halloween also throws some of the best parties ever. Here in Las Vegas alone you have Area 15 throwing down some good neon trick or treating, Zak haunted Museum is scaring the crap out of people, and of course for the sexier side of things, Fetish and Fantsy ball. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ke2uMtVwXMg So Big thanks to the Celts for all things they came up with like trousers, women being equual and of course Halloween. You could of kept wool clothing though. That crap is itchy
