Newton Cancels Halloween

Is it just me, or is this a little ridiculous? Instead of cancelling holidays, especially very secular ones like Halloween, why not celebrate more of them and let kids learn about different cultures? Of course the woman who says something like, "What about Columbus Day or Valentine's Day?" is stupid. It's like comparing apples and oranges. Kids don't care about Columbus Day, it's just a day off of school and doesn't have any religious implications of any sort. Valentine's Day isn't anything compared to Halloween for a kid either.

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
