Hey, what about Salem Oregon? We don't have witches (as far as I know...) but we definitely need some eastern hatrackers to come visit!

A few years ago, the juggling club at Brown performed at the Eerie Events night at the Peabody-Essex museum. Boston Univ also sent their juggling club. We got along fairly well and even held a few social events together later on. Brown's pirate a capella group was also sent to Eerie Events.
It's a cute event. They tell ghost stories in the historic homes associated with the museum.

That sounds like it would be a blast....both performing for it and watching it from the audience.
I really like Halloween, it is a lot of fun for both kids and adults. I really love it when kids come to the door, or even better when they are going to parties, and they are all dressed up in what they consider a scary costume....they are just so damn cute!
Dogs and kids, those are two of the things that can put me in a grreat mood.
Although I strongly disagree with dressing up you dog.
Quick version: I heard of hatrack back in HS but never bothered looking it up (friend who started me on OSC, in fact -- Jon Robbins). In college at Brown, Mike was a rabid hatrack reader and I started to read it. Joined after a year or so of lurking. Martha's Mike's sister. Beca's a friend of ours, also Brown alum. We have a few other friends who might join, but as of yet just lurk or just hear us talk about threads (yes, we talk all about you all! ).
Now I'm a Brown med student, so still affiliated. And dabbler is my public-cluster/laptop name so I don't fret if I accidentally left myself logged in.

Sadly Eerie Events no longer exists. I think the Peabody Essex Museum is trying to be more serious now. Or something. But there are probably other things going on in Salem. Halloween's a Sunday night, huh? Sounds like it could be fun.

Yep, and Jenni and I have already asked for it off. I might even stay out that way...not in Salem, but nearby. Jenni and I always have Mondays off, so there is no real need for us to try and drive back through all the Halloween crowds that go to Salem.
Mike, I didn't realize that you were Marthas brother....cool!
How is she? I haven't heard anything from her lately, not even about the WMASS Picnic. Suneun mentioned that she is still dating Kale, but other than that I didn't even know if she had heard about the picnic....she must not post here very much.

Kwea, I got a really good hotel deal on Hotwire last summer. It was near Lowell(Billerica, I think), but you could try for the North Shore(a.k.a. Nawth Shaw). There are lots of hotels that are only busy during the week, because they cater to traveling busines folk and conventions. This place was lovely, and it cost 25 bucks or something.
