So every year I try to be semi-creative with carving pumpkins. Not sure why, but I do. Last year I carved the Rockies logo and this year I was going to try the Denver Broncos logo, but in all seriousness they're starting to really suck so it's not worth it.

I might go with something band-related as I've done stuff like that in the past. I've also thought of carving a character from Futurama (probably Bender). Just wondered if you guys have any ideas. TV show related, movie related, game related, any ideas really.

My brother did a Jimi Hendrix pumpkin last year. He taped a photocopy of the art on the pumpkin and cut it out. It came out awesome.

I heard that you rub vaseline where you curve the pumpkin, to prevent pumpkin shrinkage.

I've heard that too. We did try it last year and it didn't make a whole lot of difference.

I kind of want to try Joker, but I'd expect the Joker thing will be done to death this Halloween already.

I was going to post a reply, then I realized that my reply would probably result in serious FBI scrutiny, and I thought better of it. Suffice it to say, my plan for the pumpkins would've made Green Goblin jealous.
