Just a little advance warning: Halloween Day happens to be a Saturday this year, and The Cronies™ are brewing up a little something special for our run. Details to follow soon, but meanwhile mark Oct. 31 on your calendars.
Oh, and along a related theme, here are your chances of dying a violent death before Halloween Day depending on where you live in the world. Simply divide by 100,000 x (365 - d), where d is the number of days remaining until Oct. 31.
