Well BOO on you too!

A new phenomenon is sweeping the Williamsburg community. It is a blend of doorbell ditching, a chain letter and a fun Halloween gift basket and its called getting 'Booed'. This is when a neighbor (who has been previously Booed) leaves a basket of fun Halloween goodies on your doorstep, rings the doorbell and then runs away. Once you have been Booed you in turn 'Boo' two other people and the cycle continues. It is all anonymous although it is often very obvious who the Booer is based upon the contents of the basket. I had never heard of this practice and I for one think that it should be instituted at random times of the month, not just for seasonal holidays. Imagine if you received an 'office supply basket' and you had to go and 'staple' two other people within the week. Or if you were 'graped' and received a big basket of wine. I should totally try to get this trend started in the Burg. I think that it has infinite possibilities:)
