This time, a candy-hating dentist manages to alter time and get Halloween costumes banned. Once again, you play as cheeky siblings Reynold and Wren as they unravel yet another Halloween mystery that involves the future. I'll also admit that as cool as my ninja costume was, it doesn't lay a candle in the wind to the costumes used by the kids in "Costume Quest 2." The followup up to Double Fine Production's adorable game from 2010, Costume Quest 2 retains a lot of the charm of the original. Heck, I'm just glad I didn't get hit by car. Looking back, however, dressing with a costume that makes you hard to see by motorists on a sugar high probably isn't the smartest decision for Halloween. I practically blended with my environment like pepperoni on pizza sauce. Yes, I know that sounds like an oxymoron but I was a freaking ninja, darn it. Not to brag but I must say I looked pretty cool when I went trick or treating for the first time. Now, onward to this week's game and gadget reviews. Then again, the thought that my neighbors likely are creeped out by the sight of a strange dude looking out in the distance while carrying a toy poodle that's also looking into the distance makes it all worth it.

Realizing that I just got peer-pressured by a dog to do this little ritual is, admittedly, kind of sad. So, I go ahead and carry the little bugger to the porch while he calmly plots world domination or whatever it is dogs think of when they wistfully look in the distance.

Since then, he would always greet me when I arrive and then motion toward the front door. So, I carried him to the front door, stepped on the porch and just stood there for a bit to calm him down. After I get home from work, I usually pick up my dog in my arms, open the front door and just stand on the porch for a couple of minutes.Īll I know is that I did it at first because my dog was pawing the sliding door to the backyard one time, but I couldn't let him out because the sprinklers just finished, well, sprinkling.
