Since I took up most of my Hallowe'en posts with Neconomiconning, I'm a little late to show the skeleton tableau for our front yard this year.
Originally, I wanted a skeleton to fall down the manhole while trying to catch Pikachu, but the Pokemon craze fizzled just as Hallowe'en was getting started. Also, it rained like crazy in October, so whatever I designed had to be both waterproof and fast to set up.
My wife suggested golf. I have some old clubs that have seen the rain. Unfortunately, the skeletons don't pose for golf very well, but you can hit one in the eye socket with an neon orange golf ball from the 1980's and people will laugh.
