The Great Plotnik

Mmmmm. Butterfingers.



It's candy time again. Plotnik went down to Costco yesterday and bought 3 enormous bags of Snicker's, Reese's, Kit Kat, Baby Ruth, Butterfingers, Nestle's Crisp, Hersheys and M&M's, 150 pieces per bag, because he'll use 'em all up and more in his neighborhood Halloween Night. Plus, Li'l Fee donated a bag of candy too, because she remembered that Plotnik ran out last year, and she doesn't want any problems this year. It's always a madhouse in front of the Great Plotnik World Headquarters and Candy Dispensary. Plotnik's fish hat is ready.

(OK, so maybe he won't give 'em ALL away, so maybe a few Butterfingers and Baby Ruths will find their way, somehow, into the freezer, tossed into a plain paper bag labeled "Spinach." Snickers too. Maybe.)

Sadly, Halloween Night will be Dana and Leslie's last night in SP. They have given up the ghost and are moving to Sonoma, to eke out a modest living in one of the many five bedroom-with-pool homes they have purchased up there in the last few years. So long to good friends and all that wonderful gumbo.

I'm very suspicious about anyone who can keep three bags of candy around for 13 full days before Halloween.

Me too. I'd place a side bet that TGP heads back to Costco before the 31st due to "unexplainable shrinkage" in his candy supply.

Is "Li'l Fee" a new charactor? Did I miss something? Another recently discovered relative?

Mr. Notthat, please refer to October 8, where she is called Little Miss Fee. -- P. "Plottie" Plotnik, Name Research Department and Meatball Handsquisher)

You are telling me that a KID donated to you a bag of candy because she pitied your pathetic preparations last year??? What a great kid (who needs a better agent)! And she can dunk too!

Thanks for clearing that up. And put those Butterfingers back.
