The spookiest and funniest time of the year is hard upon us this weekend.  Despite the “new normal” of the pandemic, we expect that trick-or-treaters will be out in something that resembles force.  After all, prior to the pandemic, Halloween was the one time of the year where wearing a mask was exactly what everybody wanted to do.  Throw in a dash of dazzlingly array of free expression (that makes for true diversity) with candy and ‘after-dark’ merriment and it is hard to see this holiday taking a backseat for long virus or no-virus.

That said, the month of October is often a tough month in terms of obligations and activity and the Blog Wyrm staff has had more than its share of distractions.  As a result, we are a bit tardy in getting this month’s blogs out and rather than rush them we’ve decided to simply wish everybody a Halloween with the promise that next month’s posts will be a treat.

Enjoy!
