  1. As my dad often liked to remark upon seeing these sorts of couples in public, "water finds its level."
  2. It hasn't even been four days. The weird thing with the "peanut shells" is doing fine, and so is the big reddish one, but the smiley face and the conventional pumpkin are getting torn up by varmints, and mold is also setting in for the conventional pumpkin (its lid has also fallen in on itself...).
  3. Dog of neighborhood

  6. Finance and business valuation and whatever the fuck else is not my wheelhouse, so perhaps this is patently foolish for multiple reasons, and I readily acknowledge the unlikelihood of a scam to this scale, etc. But at some point, is there a possibility that the only explanation for a stock price bound by neither reality nor gravity is that there's money laundering (and/or some other illicit source of money at a significant scale) somewhere in the equation?

  8. The final displays. The OG is still the spookiest.
  9. No idea whether this thing will endure the elements indefinitely or if it will decay into nothing, but I figured it was worth investigating. The exterior has the texture of soft peanut shells. I suspect it probably cures some diseases while likely causing others. It fits neatly into the carcass of Lemonhead. This guy is a bright yellow, so Doomlet suggested that I try to make a smiley face. I used the same new "connect the dots" technique with it's mouth (eyes are still drilled and hammered according to tradition).
  10. Here's this year's pledge class in their various stages of progression. Bought this one because of the funny little prolapsed anus. It appears to be the same species as Lemonhead from last year, so in an effort to discourage varmint consumption, I've made X-shaped eyes and a sort of slit-style mouth. The mouth is just a bunch of vertical-ish lines of holes, all of which I connected with a serrated blade. I fear that this one won't really come into its own until well after Halloween, but we'll see.
  11. Here's what we ended up with for this year's inductees into the pantheon.
  12. I took this picture just for you people.
  13. In years past, I did my best to post update progress report photos from the Copse of Putrefication around the first of the month, but as my last updates indicated, all but one from last year (Milk Dud) went to shit, though Lemonhead left enough to make a little diorama or tableau setting. We also had an incident with one of the landscapers - I did my best to communicate "leave this shit alone" which apparently came across as "please make sure to remove all this shit" but I managed to salvage Milk Dud and the remnants of Lemonhead. I suspect that perhaps the landscratchers might have absconded with one, or maybe a varmint or just decay caught up with us - who knows. A few pictures from March and April that I never got around to posting:
  14. We went to the Night of 1,000 Jack-o'-Lanterns at the Chicago Botanic Garden on Friday night. Some really spectacular artistry on display. They had a bunch of different categories - movies, music, cartoons, sports, deep sea creatures, obituaries (people who died since last Halloween), etc., etc. But man, some of them smelled absolutely terrible.
  15. Your kids either have their shit together and can be trusted to competently eat difficult foods without making a goddamn mess, or else I would hate having to touch anything in your house. There's no honey in our house - perhaps we'll be able to handle the responsibility in another decade or so.

  17. I was in Santiago on a study abroad program back in the late '90s and happened to be there at the same time as Iron Maiden, and it was a Big Fucking Deal. I wasn't able to catch any of the shows, but it felt like Beatlemania or some shit with how excited the populace was. It made me want to catch them in South America someday - have fun, and be prepared for a crowd scene beyond your normal expectations.
  18. It's been too long since you've listened to Check Your Head.

  20. Definitely dog dick.
  21. I guess this is the Iron Maiden thread. Fun show last night. This last picture is of what was more or less a bottlerocket fight between Bruce and a giant Eddie.
  22. Goddammit.
  23. Well, my 1/2/3 TB combo of Baker, Evans, and Godwin took a real shit this past week. Going to start Burrow at QB (also have Ja'Marr Chase), but picked up a few of the TB scrubs off the waiver wire. Need input on my Flex spot. 0.5 PPR. Jalen McMillan vs. ATL, Cade Otton vs. ATL, or Jake Ferguson @SF? Already have Kittle at TE and am assuming he's good to go.

  25. I could easily eat 8-10 servings of the oysters with brie from Clancy's.
