Artificial Halloween.

                               Halloween or the art of making money out of any celebration.
                                                            
                                                     * How do I look : terrific or horrific?

                            - You look terrific ! (positive meaning)  
                                             terrific = great, excellent, fabulous, splendid, wonderful
                            - You look horrific ! (negative meaning)
                                             horrific = terrible, horrible, awful

          * What is the meaning of "trick or treat"? 
              In Halloween :    trick = broma, travesura, "hacer la puñeta" (informal)
                                          treat = dulces, caramelos 
             The common translation "truco o trato" is not really very meaningful. I'd rather say 'broma o golosinas'.
