Put me in, coach. I'm ready to play, today.

As it happens, the mysterious pumpkin-smasher did not return this year. This could be because she actually held a grudge against the previous inhabitants of the house and has realized that they no longer live there. Or, it could be that it was a random, drug-induced incident, not likely to recur. Or, it could be that enough people saw us playing pumpkin katana baseball on the front lawn on Saturday that the entire neighborhood now knows we're armed.

Speaking of pumpkin katana baseball, there could be game on tonight before the grove meets, weather permitting. We've got a damn lot of unmolested pumpkins sitting on the porch, and gods know you don't want to try and eat the stringy bastards.

Now, I did notice a lovely lot of sugarpie pumpkins at WF yesterday. Pumpkin soup is a distinct possibility. Also noticing at WF, zylch, the lovely cashier boy seems to be a Thelemite. Have you noticed this?

There were *some* few remains of someone's pumpkin in the road today, further down toward the Firecracker house. It is of course possible that this was a self-smashing, or just a random neighbor's house getting hit instead of ours.

More years of data are required. I think pumpkin katana baseball cannot be detrimental to our household's security and safety in these troubled times, however.

I did see that, but I thought that Firecracker House smashed their own pumpkins.

I suppose that it's also possible that potential pumpkin-smashers saw Pumpkinhenge and assumed that all possible damage had already been done and there was no point in further destruction.

Hard to say.

Speaking of pumpkin katana baseball, apparently one of the managers for our department lives around the corner from us and said she saw us tossing pumpkins.

Niiiiice. Which department would that be?

Ms. Powell is manager for the Social Services functions of our/my department, including running the building I work in.

So that's fun...

Also, remind me not to make out with you on the front lawn :-P
