H. R. Pumpkin Stuff


I was late purchasing my pumpkin this year and had to drive out to Collingwood. Not surprisingly, all the "good" ones were gone. By "good" I mean symmetrical, balanced, smooth -- the same criteria we use to judge human faces. I chose one whose face surface looked like it might support a cleft-palate. While carving, something else occurred to me: that a happy pumpkin is easier to carve than an angry one.
