How quickly will a carved pumpkin rot?

I'm thinking of carving one tonight, but I don't want it to rot before Halloween.

don't worry. the neighborhood teens will smash it before it rots.

If you have enough room in your freezer, you can freeze it every night before halloween to make it last longer.
