October 29, 1787 –
Mozart’s opera Don Giovanni opened in Prague., on this date
The opera was first performed at the Prague’s Estates Theater with Mozart at the piano and conducting the orchestra. It was a sensational success – but what the hell do you care, Halloween is in two days and general election is in seven days.

I bet if you dig around in any purses in your house (assuming someone in your house has a purse,) you could find some individual altoid mints to give out to the neighborhood kids should they come to your house treat or treating this year. Or better yet, look through your office desk for some unused Post-it pads.
