Sunday, the 31st

The newspapers have dutifully reported the fact that some folks are alarmed at the idea of Halloween falling on a Sunday.

More than one person is quoted to the effect that this is "giving the Lord's Day to the Devil".

I'm disappointed that nobody was quoted as pointing out that All Saints' Eve is the night before the day when Christians honor their brethren who have preceded them into Heaven.
