Realitycheck Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 The word for the day in this camp is clarity. I think Joseph Campbell came close to putting it best. I'll try real hard to keep myself from dominating the boards in my boredom with pointless tripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaynos Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Last night went well here this my Daughter and I. Isn't that pretty much a normal night in your house? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phi for All Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 this my Daughter and I.Hannah looks great but you should have made more of an effort to dress up, YT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1veedo Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Hannah looks great Nah she's not slutty enough. You know, being halloween and everything. That is a really good costume you're wearing btw, YT2095. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Cuthber Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 That's not a costume, that's his normal clothes. BTW I bet he meant to say "my daughter and me" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayonara Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Are you supposed to have a happy Halloween? I too am pretty sure that photo shows a normal evening in the YT household... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blike Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 ROFL YT, I love it. Can't believe your daughter is so old already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YT2095 Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 well actually there IS some truth about the "Normality" here, other than the green surgical scrubs, the fake blood, the Spencer wells forceps sticking out my side, and the Stethoscope, I do indeed wear my Lab coat and safety goggles quite a bit and she is used to seeing me in them. in fact she has her Own safety goggles too and loves wearing them (a Good thing!), and I`m on the lookout for a small Labcoat that she can wear too. Blike yeah, she`s 2.5 now, it`s gone by Real quick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iNow Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Here's a pumpkin I made for work: Let me just say, you eclipse my pumpkin carving skills by several orders of magnitude. Very nice job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirabelle Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Thank you I won the contest at work but the prize was lunch at a pizza place... I don't eat lunch and I hate pizza... But it was still fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDNA Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Can I ask what carving tools you used to obtain such intricate designs? Absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirabelle Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Thank you I'm a bit of a pack rat. Every other year or so I buy one of those "pumpkin carving kits". I never use the designs but I always save the tools and each year they add a new tool so I've gathered a large collection (well organized too). This was done with a very small (1.5-2mm wide) saw blade. For me the hardest part is determining what parts to cut out first so the surface remains strong enough to be detailed without falling apart.

For me the hardest part is determining what parts to cut out first so the surface remains strong enough to be detailed without falling apart. That's a hard part for me too. Were you able to get it all cleanly cut away without any breaking or did you use some toothpicks? Some of the dark parts are VERY close, so it looks *I* might have had to use toothpicks in some places.... Either way, its an amazing looking pumkin!

Mirabelle Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Since I was at work I cut paperclips into pieces for the 3 spots I slipped on. They worked so much better than toothpicks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
