Wow!
Those pumpkin carvings are amazing!

I'm humbled now....... it's all I can do to carve out an eye!
:)

Is there any sort of contest you folks can enter this in?

greatly impressed,
nate

Well, if anyone wants to see how exceedingly pathetic we are,
here's a link to my web page where we've uploaded pictures of the
pumpkin Paul and I carved this weekend. (All things considered, I
think it came out fairly well.)

I just want to say thanks to everyone for their compliments on
our pumpkin! We were really proud of ourselves but didn't think other
people would like them as much as you do! <Andrea snuggling in

Is there any way you can "preserve" that JOL? It is truly one of a kind.

I guess that's kind of the beauty of the jack o'lantern, though: its
transience. Like ice sculpture, or a sunset. Or life, even.

Okay, I have nauseated even myself now.

Lack of talent, my foot!!! These are incredible! :0

My only question: is it one pumpkin or four?

Holy jack-o-fruheads, batman! I'm *INCREDIBLY* impressed! This is
*really* deserving of a QuicktimeVR movie. If the pumpkin hasn't, well,
turned into a pumpkin, take as many pictures of it as you can from all
angles (preferably in twilight or low light, with inner lighting) and
send them to me or scan them in. I'll get them stitched together and
encode them into a QuicktimeVR movie, so people can rotate the pumpkin
and view it from all angles... :)

We were actually thinking of doing that but didn't end up doing it,
and now the pumpkin has long since shrivelled in all the thin places.
Murray no longer has a face, Mike's mouth is gone, etc. :) Thanks for
the compliments though. :)
