In the morning, when those things always seem to be deflated and covered with morning dew, they look like giant used condoms.

  1. Wow. Gives new meaning to trick or treat.

  4. Great, just great. A five-foot Coney Island Whitefish. Yeef.

  5. You know, if you’re going to be lazy enough to put one of those all-purpose things on your lawn, at least have the dignity to bring it in each night.

    This comes, by the way, from the guy who just bought an inflatable snow globe.

  6. Hah! I’ve been meaning to post about those things since last Halloween. They really irritate me, although I’m bothered more by the orange ones than white. Orange scares me. And Velociman’s comment nearly killed me.

  7. Pictures Pictures Everywhere

    Seems that lots of people are posting pictures lately. If you haven’t seen them – you should! First we have Sieg – with Big Windy in Pakistan. Yay Big Windy – you guys ROCK! Then Drill Sgt Robb has posted…

  8. I’ve never even been tempted to put one of those things on my lawn. Until now.

  9. You DO have pictures, right? 🙂

  10. Pictures? Ha! You’re talking to a guy who sweats bullets every time I have to open “Mr. Template” to do even the most rudimentary things. As such, I don’t own a digital camera, nor do I have a scanner. Hence, no pictures. Besides, who would want a picture of a mondo, slimey looking condom-like thing?

  11. Fine. Just draw a bad stick-figure rendition.

    As to why… I’m ex-Navy. Does that clear things up? 🙂
