To discuss a Weekend Update with wholesale gourd slaughter

Now that was a hectic but fun weekend.
Some of you already saw what I did Friday night. I applaud those who took my advice to stay away from that Devil movie "Quarantine"... but I understand those who are going to see it just because I was so freaked out by it and you want to know why I'm such a girly-man. Don't say I didn't warn you. I do expect a full report once you return... if you do, that is.

On to the rest of Weekend Update...
Once again, I'm going visual for this, in part because I actually have photos, and in part because it's Monday and your tolerance for long posts is probably somewhere between your desire to get impregnated by bin Laden and your desire to have the government fund another corporate bailout.

On a quick note, I went to karaoke on Saturday night with my bro, Capricorn and church people...I was proud of my bro's country twang and my "Breakfast at Tiffany's," but all credit goes to the duo that took on System of a Down's "Chop Suey." I didn't know you could karaoke that song. Evidently, you can--- and you should...

Capricorn and I spend most of the weekend together for two holidays we made up-- if Hallmark can manufacture holidays, so can we. Fall Fest 2008 and Cleaning Day 2008 were both necessary and well-celebrated. While Cleaning Day 2008 is fairly self-explanatory (cleaning is more fun when you pretend you're celebrating a holiday), Fall Fest can be better described using photos.
First, know that there was a mother of a rainstorm on Saturday, as God evidently was not as enamored with Fall Fest as I was... fair enough. Capricorn almost blew away while we went to get pumpkins... she chose a nice size gourd, I chose a steroids-size one.

Next, I give you the delicate dance of carving jack-o-lanterns.
I chose a pre-set design that was rated Four out of Four pumpkins on the difficulty list of our carving kit, which I'm sure will put me at MENSA level; Capricorn made her own design.




I was dually impressed with our carving skills....

Coming up this week- a co-blog with AmyXXOO on cultural stereotypes (so I can atone for making fun of Aborigines and because Amy is funny)...and another WildARS video, this time about Jesus and Facebook. It's going to be a good week.
