Halloween Pumpkin Carving

Following a previous story about a Dremel pumpkin carving kit, we've got a number of pumpkins to share with everyone. Leading off is Kathleen's Strong Bad. Next up is our first Cacodemon, followed by another Cacodemon and a Spider Mastermind. quan74 pointed us to The Pumkin Lady who has carved up heads of state and has a pattern for creating your own Tux. Kirk put together a tutorial for a 1upkin. And finally, droops sent us in the classic Jack-O-Linux which never gets old.

So I hear that the Chester Alan Arthur pumpkin requires over 80 candles, and you have to change the candles every few hours.

Who wants to take bets on how long it takes Nintendo to send the 1upkin guy a cease-and-desist?

Pumpkin as carved by squirrel

We put our pumpkin out uncarved. We were going to carve it, but a local squirrel decided to take care of it for us! Here's the photographic evidence http://www.geofffox.com/MT/images/nutti-goes-in.jp g

Gratuitous slashdotting joke

[swordboy]

So...

To what does slashdotting a pumpking site amount?

Smashing pumpkins!

Packed with?

[murderlegendre]

It is tasty and nutritious, being packed with beta carotene

The notable exception being the afforementioned 'Scariest pumpkin', which is packed with something entirely different. Pray that it's flushable.

Around most guys, if you want to get some all you have to do is say "I want to get some" or pretty much anything at all, or nothing for that matter.

OMG!!

....is a pretty good idea, actually. You can assemble it for long enough for a halloween kinda LAN party, and then after, depending on your processor, you could have an already cooked pumpkin for baking purposes.

Nice 'lanterns

[centauri]

"Hey, Kathleen, that's a nice, bright jack-o-lantern you've got there."

"That's not a jack-o-lantern, that's my server."
