    I worked at a variety of retail stores in my younger days...and all the 'unique' customers would come in on nights when there was a full moon...

    "Hi, can I help you find something?"
    "Yes, I would like to put the Highlander sword on layaway"
    "ok sure, let me fill out a form...First name?"
    "Duncan"
    "alrighty...last name?"
    "MacLeod"
    "Duncan MacLeod?" :?
    "Yes"
    "ok, we require a 50% deposit, how would you like to pay?"
    "with a credit card...here. Wanna see my ID?" (the customer is very excited and wide eyed now)
    "uhh...sure"

    so he hands me his ID and credit card...yup, name matches...and he says (proudly) "I had my name legally changed!"

    LARPers were ALWAYS in asking questions about whatever we had in...3 different specific stores too.

    they come in all varieties...though the 'Historical Re-Enactment' guys *hate* being called LARPers...but that's what they really are...

    Halloween was always....um....interesting. I always got stuck handing out candy to the kiddies, and we were 'encouraged' to dress up if we worked on Halloween...to make it more 'inviting' for families at the mall.

    When we got a rash of weird cases in the Emergency Department, we figured it was due to the cycle of the moon. But that didn't explain all the other weeks in which we had weird stuff going on.

    She didn't answer. Just sat there, totally silent. Very frustrating for the psychiatrist who had to come and do an evaluation.

    My diagnosis? "Crazy."

    Wish I could remember if it was a full moon or not.

    Pfffft. It's been pouring here so can't see the full moon.

    Weird stuff that's happened: Absolutely nothing.

    Which I think is very, very weird.

    My kids are driving me crazy! They get a little unmanageable around the full moon, but when you combine the moon with Halloween candy...well let's just say I have wine rack well stocked to help me get through the weekend ;)
