Halloween Safety
« on: October 30, 2006, 06:57:31 AM »

Pranksters seem to be out and about in increasing numbers the closer we get to Halloween.  I know people don't intend for their mischief to get out of hand, but this week, I've witnessed and been the victim of some of this mischief.  A friend of mine was delivering papers and almost tripped over a steel cable which had been strung across a walkway.  Had it been strung across the apartment steps, it could have seriously injured or killed him.  Another carrier blew out a tire when he hit a lidless manhole.  Yesterday, I ran over a black steel mailbox which had been knocked from its post. 

If you do have to drive around at night, just be careful. The goofs do seem to be out and about!

Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I don't assume for a minute that people don't intend their mischief to get out of hand.  Even if those people are kids.  Ok.  I'd better not get started on that soapbox. ::) Thanks for the warning, Karen!
