pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. That's right. The simultaneous sip.

Oh my God, that was good.

Well, the stock market's up a little bit, trying to make up for yesterday, which was not so good. Not so good. How was everybody's Halloween? I was giving out candy last night. It was a smaller crowd than usual. Makes me wonder if kids are eating less candy. I wonder what's behind that. Way fewer people. In fact, every year has been fewer in my neighborhood, but it was still fun.

But I want to tell you the funniest part of it and also give you a tip for your next Halloween. So years ago I came up with the idea, because it was suggested to me by the woman I was with at the time. Who was it? I think it was my first wife, Shelly, that we should provide water, you know, little bottles of water to the trick-or-treaters because they would be thirsty. Now the first time I did it I thought to myself, you don't need to give them little waters, come on. But the kids went crazy for the waters because they were just so thirsty, because they were eating candy and running around all night. So I did it again every year. So every year it became more and more popular.

Then my current house, doing the same thing, and a number of the kids would come back like two and three times to get the waters, and they'd be so happy. Thank you for the waters. But the best part, you know, just in case you're thinking that the young people are all terrible, I live in a neighborhood where the kids are mostly awesome. So it's just a really nice place. And I would say in terms of diversity, I think 85% of the trick-or-treaters were non-white in my neighborhood, mostly Asian and Indian-American, a lot of Black, and for some reason a relatively tiny percentage of white trick-or-treaters.

But here's the story. Some of the maybe 14-year-old or so teens are there, and they see that I'm offering water, and it's a big bunch of them. They come at once and they're all like, oh water, we're so good. And I swear to God that the kids start yelling, respect, we have so much respect for you for having water available. And then they started chanting, I swear this happened, as they're walking away from my house they're chanting, respect, respect for the water.

So if you
