The time nears for the ritual mutilation of seasonal gourds. Has anyone else started planning their Jack'o'lanterns?
I was hoping to carve the poor S.O.B. tonight, but didn't get to it, as I couldn't settle on a workable plan.
I started out figuring on Waspinator, since his face has a kind of Jack'o'Lantern look anyway, and it would be funny to smash him, but I couldn't get the mandibles to work out.
Then I moved onto an Autobot symbol, something a lot of kids will recognize this year, but I strained my skills when I made a Decepticon symbol a couple of years back and that was easier, so I abandoned that plan.
I tried to work out how to do Optimus Prime, and the end product was a very cool picture that simply would not work on a pumpkin - even assuming the vegetable survived the experience.
The final concept that my wife approved was Venom - should be a pretty recognizable character this year. She's also planning on making him a tongue using the left over pieces of pumpkin-peel.
I'd still like to try The Fallen (need a bigger candle) and Unicron (it's already an orange ball!) but I think we're probably going with Venom.
So what are your plans? Or if you have them carved already, get the pics up!!!
Any Pumpkin Plans?

No plans for me on Halloween. The town that I live in gets weird and dangerous on Halloween.

No I'll just stay indoors and wake up in the morning to pick up all the fishhooks, scrub the egg off the car and house, and and whatever.

Well, my wife just got an e-mail informing her that she's proctoring a test from 6pm-8pm on Halloween night, so our plans basically just got hosed.
What kind of cantankerous old shizno gives a test on Halloween night anyway?
And he doesn't even have the cahones to show up and administer the test himself.
