Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I think it would be hard to make a skull air and water tight.
I think I would soak it in bleach to get the gunk off, give it a good sanding with wet fine sandpaper, smooth clay over it, sand again, fill the eye and nose sockets, sand again, dip in glaze, and fire it in a kiln.
Take a lot of work, but it would be awfully pretty.
The tricky part, the kid learned, was obtaining the head in the first place.
My friend Phil (aka, Ultraman, aka, Texas Hold 'Em's Unabomber) took a skull, sawed it in half and glued it to the sides of his motorcycle's gas tank. There was a lot of silicone and epoxy involved.
Allyson's bong would be much prettier than mine.
Where'd Phil get the skull? Hmmm?
Some of that fancy new translucent duct tape so you can still see it's a skull.
The only thing that's coming to mind is Jeanine Garafolo's bowling ball in Mystery Men.
So what you're saying is the dude created a necrophilibong?

One of my buddies did this with a dog skull for a Blood of Heroes (the Rutger Hauer movie) thing we did. It looked fantastic. Insane, but fantastic. I didn't know Mindy (the dog, who had been deceased for many years), but the (former) owner thought it was cool.
Hec, while you're recommending restaurants, what was the pizza place with New Yorker approved pizza in the East Bay?
