Natter 54: Right here, dammit.
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.
Oh, yeah, those are much better!
Peeled grapes for eyeballs.
paperdol, I found one that just uses bags as a guess game with a list of good things to use for food: here.
I like the idea of using almond slivers for fingernails.
I already have pin the skull on the skeleton (which is seriously tape the the skull on the skeleton, since little kids, blindfolded, with tacks, is no good),
See, this is why kids today grow up soft. No pins, no lawn darts, non-flammable pajamas. Feh.
How about a jack o'lantern pinata? I also like the blindfolded guess-the-creepy-food game.
One warning, if the kids are very wee (under 6 or so), the skeleton might scare them.
I just watched the premier of Moonlight. I was playing guess the next line. and doing very well. but it has a few people in it that I am happy to see working.

Timelies all!
Urgh. I have sunburn on my scalp. Note to self: If there is even the slightest possibility that you will be outside for more than 15 minutes on a warm day, take a hat! (When we went to the National Book Festival I didn't realize I'd be waiting an hour and a half in the sun to get Terry Pratchett to sign my book)
Sometimes I love crazy people. Dave Sims showed he went off the rails a while back, but he's currently posting stuff like this on his blog:
A car with two steering wheels, two gas pedals and two brakes drives more efficiently than a car with one steering wheel, one gas pedal and one brake which is why marriage should always be an equal partnership.
I've heard good things about his work up until it all went kerflooey, but I just can't bring myself to read it now.
