You know what ambigrams are, right? They're those cleverly designed words that read the same way upside
down as they do rightside up. If you read Dan Brown's book "Angels and Demons" then you've already seen some of John Langdon's work. (Yes, the book's protagonist was named after the artist.) He created this very clever "Trick or Treat" ambigram for British illusionist Derren Brown's latest special. I just might carve it onto a pumpkin

It's a Kellogg's Halloween!!!
According to this article, "in 1958 both Post and Kellogg promoted individual cereal boxes as the perfect Halloween treat." I know I'm going to be in the minority here, but that's a movement that I could actually get behind. Obviously candy would be my first choice, but I'd rather get a box of cereal than an apple, pennies or raisins.
