@joshuavrobbins Sorry, it isn’t a Mormon thing. We lived in Pennsylvania, and they didn’t trick or treat in our community on Saturdays or Sundays (they moved to Fridays when it fell on the weekend in respect of religious groups). Maine was the same, Sunday trick or treating was on Saturday.

One of the hardest (but most exciting) decisions I’ve made in a long time: I just bought back my first business, https://t.co/2y5pWHXSQl, and have converted it into a benefit corporation to fight poverty. On the hunt for a CEO to scale beyond billiards. https://t.co/OUZ8SAUD0b
