Worth repeating.

The word is Halloween. Hallow is in shallow and callow, not as in hollow and follow. I don't know why so many people insist on saying Holloween, incuding many highly paid tv personalities.They don't put marshmollows in their cocoa. They don't watch movies where people are sent to the gollows. They don't say an anemic person's skin is sollow. And they don't make candles out of tollow. So stop saying Holloween. And while we're at it, this Christmas keep in mind that the old guy who delivers the presents is Santa Claus with a t, not Sanna Claus. See, they don't call me cranky for nothing.
