Some things money can't buy...

One jack-o-lantern Halloween candy bucket: $0.99

Buzz Lightyear costume, size 3T: $14.99

Pair of shoes to match costume: $17.99

Extra gas to drive kids to Mom's work for Office Trick-or-Treat Day: $25.00

Watching 4-year old son gang-tackle a well-dressed executive in the 6th-floor hallway, pulling on said executive's arms while shouting, "Look at me! Look at me! I'm Tommy!", realizing that well-dressed executive is actually the
CEO of the company, having a minor coronary event while rushing to rescue Mr. Boss-Man from sugar-amped toddler, yet having the Big Man himself simply laugh, tell the boy he wins "Best Costume," and give him a high five before extracting himself and going on his way with a smile: Priceless

And that's a Halloween story I will probably be telling my grandkids, with any luck.

That is too cool. Reminds me that not all people are bad.
