Happy Halloween!

October 30, 2007

It’s that time of year again, Halloween!

I know we get a good mixture of kids and adults here at PokeFarm so why not leave a comment and tell everyone about your plans (and costume) for Halloween.

Will you be carving pumpkins? Going to a costume party? Tell us because we want to know.

Me? As the dad of the house it is normally my job to stay home and hand out the candy. I did carve a pumpkin tonight.

Let me tell all the other dads out there something very important. A Dremel will help you carve the pumpkin faster but you will also end up making a huge mess and those little bits of pumpkin that hit the floor dry harder than concrete!

Electrode the Pumpkin

Yes, I carved an Electrode out of a pumpkin for Halloween. Now, you might think that it is lame or uninspired but I have to tell you that shaving the top half of that pumpkin down with a Dremel was a very messy affair. I had pumpkin guts all over myself and the floor.

When you use the Dremel the pumpkin tends to liquify beneath you. This results in a very fine orange mist covering everything.

Electrode the pumpkin at night

There he is in all his glory. I did go back and do a little more shaving to fix that one dark patch.

that pumpkin is amazingly amazing. last year i made a mario pumpkin, but i think this might top it.

for halloween, me, my brother, and two of my good friends are going trick-or-treating. i’m dressing up as the flash, trying to make the costume look as cheap as possible.

What time do the kids usually start going trick or treating?

I hope you have a good time! I won’t be doing anything, as I’ll be in Durham Pool playing water polo.
