Couple of kids came into the store dressed up as ghosts.
"Can we buy a couple of pumpkins?"
"No, we don't sell pumpkins to ghosts"
The sniggered happily "But we are not ghosts really"
"Then why are you dressed up as ghosts?
"Halloween"
"Tell you what, the pumpkins are for free if you can tell me why you dress up as ghosts on Halloween"
"Cos it's fun"
"So you are fun ghosts huh!"
"Naw, we're scarry ghosts, and we frighten people"
"Well you don't frighten me, so beat it"
They left the shop crying since I had not joined in their stupid game.
A prune faced old spinster who had been listening in said
"That was a bit harsh. They were only little kids having a bit fun"
and I said to her.
"And you can take that halloween mask off was well"
"But I am not wearing a mask"
"You could have fooled me"
