This year I carved Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin's face on my Halloween pumpkin (because the kids love him and he's dead.) (please note the scattered plastic bones in the foreground of the installation shot) I was disappointed when I did not win a prize for the best pumpkin, and that is because R.M. Vaughan was judging the contest, and he is the Worst Fucking Art Critic in Canada.
The other big disappointment is that Steve Irwin actually looks more like Lee Majors. (as one of my asshole neighbours pointed out)
or is it this guy?
Hee hee, you cracked me up about RM Vaughan. I don't rust anybody who doesn't allow comments on their blog anyways.
You pumpkin carving of Steve Irwin is very very good. I see it.
Thanks for the shout out!!!
excellent carl wilson likeness!
If either of you guys had shown up at my door spewing that poison about the best and most poignant Steve Irwin Halloween pumpkin ever, I would have told your rental children that they weren't getting any candy because their rental daddies were Very Bad Men.
Damn, I posted a comment complimenting the Steve Irwin likeness. Guess I wrote it and forgot to hit "post now."
It's unmistakable in the top photo. Only I can't see the pumpkin--too dark.
I can see it on a brighter screen.
Crickey!
It looks like he has a huge 'stash, like Magnum PI, or 70's pr0n icon, Harry Reems.
Or '00s porn icon John Bolton.
In the top photo it's clear it's a shadow and not a mustache.
i kid 'cuz i love. of course its he who crocks.
And I forgive because I am now on a little Cadbury Wunderbar induced wave of euphoria soon to be followed by crashing despair, soon to be followed by a little Nestle Kit Kat Bar, soon to be followed by a transcendent joy, soon to be followed by profound sorrow, soon to be followed by a little box of Smarties. Eventually I'll switch to Kaluha & Baileys and continue to forgive until I am comatose.

I'm guzzling Amaretto straight out of the bottle now and forgiving all of you.

Tales of substance abuse, even if its just sugar, are always welcome on this blog. I used to think Ellen was brilliant, but that was a looong time ago.
