How To Avoid Offending Blind People

According to BuyCostumes.com, the most popular Halloween costumes this year are fantasy figures, like mythical heroes and witches. And not the evil, green, wart-nosed witches of fairy tales either...fancy, nice, good witches.

It seems that, this Halloween, you are choosing to forget about the real-life horrors you're encountering like outrageous gas prices, hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, and Supreme Court nominations - and choosing to have fun. Good for you!

I also saw a list of politically incorrect costumes. You know how "far out" political correctness can get; along with the expected ethnic stereotypes, I noticed "pirate costumes with eye patches." Why? "They may offend blind people."

How would they know? I have a simple idea...let's just not tell them.

Happy Halloween!
