Halloween on Sunday.....What????

I just read the most unbelievable story on cnn.com. Reading this, I now know that those people on Jerry Springer are NOT acting. Check out these quotes from an article titled "Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners".

"It's a day for the good Lord, not for the devil," said Barbara Braswell, who plans to send her 4-year-old granddaughter Maliyah out trick-or-treating in a princess costume on Saturday instead.


"Moving it, that's like celebrating Christmas a week early," said Veronica Wright, who bought a Power Rangers costume for her son in Newnan. "It's just a kid thing. It's not for real."

And the best of all...

"You just don't do it on Sunday," said Sandra Hulsey of Greenville, Georgia. "That's Christ's day. You go to church on Sunday, you don't go out and celebrate the devil. That'll confuse a child."


People just don't get it. Maybe I don't get it.
